49 Weeks Old

Let them get dirty.  That's a good way to not be an ass.  We went to the coast a couple of weekends ago and it was cold, windy and pretty miserable. Here we are nice and cozy.  

I was resistant to letting her run around.  Fortunately, my wife convinced me to let her play in the sand.  Did VB care?  Not really.  And we got some great pictures out of it.

   Also, let them walk around naked, even if it means cleaning poop off the floor.  I did that for the first time this week and I have to say it's actually easier than changing a dirty diaper. (Assuming you use cloth diapers)
   All our time is pretty much devoted to the child.  All other hobbies, interests and past times have taken a back seat in our lives.  This again became clear when my wife told me that while I was with VB on the potty, she thought about playing piano or doing something productive.  But then she decided to join us so she could watch our daughter poop.
   Yeah.  This is our life, now.
