Dash Developments

12/7/05:  Been smiling for a week.  I always knew that when smiled their happiness was pure and overwhelming.  What I didn't realize was that for the parents those first smiles were just as emotionally overwhelming.

11/15/05:  Good focus, lots of vocal noise.

10/31/05: Circumcised (Dash was sucking on Daddy's finger during the procedure for calming.  Daddy thinks this was one of the most barbaric things he's ever witnessed (largely because of the "electiveness" of it).  Mitigated only by the fact that it's so very routing.  I could write a piece on it that would leave some lasting images in your mind, but I won't.

10/24/05: Came home.

10/21/05: Born.
