Baby's First Brew

Sean started homebrewing different beers a few months ago and on Easter started another one - a European bock. My mom and sister were here visiting so they helped him while I slept. Fiona also helped a little.

Fiona "helping"

Fiona sampled a few too many of the last brew :)

She's almost 3 weeks now. She still hiccups quite a bit (a couple times per day), is still eating good, will sleep for one good (3-4 hour) stretch during the night, likes to snack a lot before going to sleep at night, has started grunting and growling while she eats (it's hilarious) and is awake more during the day. We'll mostly just talk to her and let her look at us or hang out with us while she's awake. I've read a book to her once and tried doing a little tummy time with her, but she's usually only good for about 5 minutes (maybe 10 tops) before she gets frustrated with it. Her muscle control and development continues to improve. She kicks and pushes against our stomachs with her legs and also pushes against our chests with her arms. She'll lift her head back as we're burping her and try to headbutt us. She also looks like she's growing; she has more eyelashes and her ears look bigger. The newborn outfit still fits, but she's wearing size 1 diapers now - mostly because we have a bunch of those and they fit OK so we don't want to buy more NB size.
