Things I have learned:

- Never feed a baby with a bottle that is full of bubbles, otherwise you will get spit up on.
- Swaddle blankets with velcro kick ass.
- Changing a diaper isn't as hard or as gross as one might think.
- Trying to stay up all night with an awake baby is hard work.
- Babies are expensive: a formula powder can with over a pound of powder will run you about $21.
- Babies somehow know to wait to pee some more right after you change them. If you're lucky, they will pee on your hand.
- When a newborn looks like they are smiling, they probably have gas.

I'm sure there's more, but that's all for now. My dad is visiting from Brooklyn, and is enjoying being with the baby. Here he is feeding Olivia:


So cute:


And here she is, rocking out to some Pearl Jam, naturally.
