The past month with my wonderful little daughter has been the most amazing blessing I could imagine. I love being her dad.

Fed and happy.
Full-on milk-drunk...
...and a very happy milk-drunk at that.
Wearing the same outfit that her dad wore as a newborn.
"I like my animal sheets!"
Tongue out.
"FEED ME!"
Well hello there.
Yet another milk-drunk slumber...
...and she's dreaming sweetly.
Beautiful time in the fall foliage.
She usually sleeps like this, spread out, like her dad does.
"Dad, that's not where that goes!"
I really love my family and I couldn't be any happier about being a dad. There are going to be plenty more updates in the future.
