The New Normal

Wesley will be three weeks old tomorrow. Until yesterday, we've had company for all three of those weeks. My brother was here when Wesley was born and Stef was here for the last two weeks. It was great having them here, but now we're on our own to figure out how things work for our newly expanded family.

To start off we made a big change today for Darcy by cutting off most of her hair. Her hair was getting quite long in the back and it has always been quite thin. It looked really nice when it was clean and brushed but it never stayed that way long. Mostly it ended up being tangled and messy. So we took her this afternoon and got it cut to her shoulders. She really likes it, but I'm not sure yet how I feel about it. We'll get some pictures up tomorrow.

It's obvious Darcy learned a lot from Stef while she was here. Here are a couple of conversations from our house today...

"Daddy, can we listen to ABBA during supper?"

(When presented with a cob of corn that had some bad kernels at the top)
Darcy: Oh, that's nasty!
Me: Where did you learn the word 'nasty'?
Darcy: Auntie Stef.
