Mandy is taking her first trip away from Elsie this week – that pesky job! So Dad is taking care of the little munchkin for a couple of nights. We did just great last night with Elsie downing a prodigious amount of stored milk and enjoyed watching the 300 (until she got bored by all the fighting). Tonight we have the Squid and the Whale to watch – I suspect she might find that a bit of a snoozer too!

Mom is out in California pumping away and preparing to brave the TSA with her stored milk when she returns tomorrow night. In the meanwhile, Elsie is having a blast proceeding around the neighborhood in her stately pram with her orange sceptre (tucked under her stole blanket).

Note: the pillow is to ensure maximum comfort, not because she can’t sit up on her own yet!
