Proud Dad Diaries: 2005-10-30

My mom with Lacy and her cousin Cole at my parents' house.

Mae Mae and Dad-o with Lacy at our condo in Oxford.

Below are quite a few new pictures for everyone.

The last week has been very busy for me but has been a really good week for Lacy. She's been sleeping very well at night and seems to be doing great. Wow is she growing now. She can really hold up her head now and just check things out. I can't believe that it's already been 5 weeks!

One of the new pictures below has one of my favorite positions photographed. It's where Lacy and I are both lying down and she is on my chest. I love when she does this and we both fall asleep. It's a really good feeling to have her little arms stretched out around me so tenderly and to be able to feel her little breath on my chest and neck. Usually about once a night we find each other in this position. If she's a little fussy around 5 a.m. after eating it can really calm her down.

I'm a little bummed about the coming week. November is here and for me that means law school really begins. Because of this my time with Lacy will probably be somewhat cut due to mucho reading and writing. But fortunately this will only be for a few weeks. I'm hoping to have a couple of papers knocked out in the next 2-3 weeks, then exam prep begins. Luckily I only have two this semester.

But enough about me. I apologize for not putting many updates on last week. Hopefully this week will be better. Let me know what you guys are interested in hearing about and I'll try to oblige. Just email me at jami_ferrell@yahoo.com or by putting a comment below.
