Mikaela sleeps

Mikaela sleeps, originally uploaded by James Cham.

It has only been 21 months since Colin was born but I feel like I've forgotten so much already. Here's one example: by the time that Colin was three weeks old, I was an expert at swaddling him in his blanket so that his arms were tightly tied together. We're told that this is supposed to calm the child because it is a similar experience to the womb (although some people disagree). I tried multiple times to swaddle Mikaela over the last few days and this is the fruit of my efforts. As you can see, she's clearly tightly tied up!
