First Trip to the Park

There’s been a long gap in posts around these parts. The little girl pictured here is the main reason for that, of course. But I’ve also been busy with some side-work, sneaking in some fun here and there, and work work work. It’s all good stuff as our now 2-month old is changing day to day and we’re getting used to the patterns of parenthood.
Today we took her to the park to feed the ducks for the very first time in her life. Heck, she didn’t know what ducks were before today (and still doesn’t). We were there almost an hour before we headed back home to give her some grub. She likes to eat and sleep more than anything else. She sleeps like I do… a lot. In fact she’s slept through the night most nights she’s been alive. A chip off the old block!
For some reason I enjoy the funnier expressions on her face for photos. There are the sweet ones too, but I laugh every time I see one of her weird expressions so I chose one of those for this post. She looks like she’s wearing a military helmet in this one. Something out of Band of Brothers or something.
Baby Popp is here!

Wow! Today was the greatest day ever. We had a baby at 10:01am, the Chargers won their first playoff game in 13 years, and Ferrari announced the F2008. Okay, so one of those far outweighs the others, but all make them an even better day! Mommy, Daddy, and baby girl are doing great.
No Baby Yet

We’re still expecting! I guess she wants to stay in there for awhile longer. We should have big news within a week though as we may not wait for her to make up her own mind.
Monique and I are enjoying being at home together. The holidays were nice and quiet and we’ve been staying home mostly. We got out yesterday to run some quick errands, but when you’ve got a tiny human on your front-side, it’s not easy to stay out in public walking around a lot. It amazes me how many people become the friendliest folks you’ve ever met when you are with child and so close to the big day. Pretty much everyone we came in contact with asks when the baby is due. Monique has lost patience with it I think as she didn’t gush with motherly love when she said, “last Sunday.” I think we’re ready for this ship to sail.
