New Friend Alert!

Last Thursday (December 15), our friends Anjana and Bryce had their baby - a baby boy named Nayan - and so Leo, Juliet and I went to go meet him on Friday.  We've been very excited for this to happen since Juliet will now have another friend her age.  (of course, we're also thrilled for Anjana and Bryce!) When we got to the hospital we learned that their policy was to not allow anyone under 12 into the area with the new moms & babies, so Juliet didn't end up meeting Nayan after all.  :(  Leo and I took turns alternately visiting with A/B/N while the other amused Juliet in the waiting room area.

We ended up lending our baby bath to Anjana and Bryce (Juliet had pretty much grown out of it anyway) so this past weekend we gave Juliet a bath in the big, adult sized tub.  She really liked it - it gave her more room to splash around and we put in a couple of rubber duckies which she tried to grab.  On a side note, we weighed her this weekend and she weighed 16.8 pounds so she's getting big.


Juliet takes a big girl bath for the first time.  When we bathe her, Leo actually gets into the bathtub to hold her and amuse her while I do the actual cleaning.

Also this weekend, we decided to try one of the restaurants in our new neighbourhood, so we chose a Mexican restaurant called Mexico Lindo.  We brought Juliet and for the first time we used a restaurant high chair.  In the past, we just had Juliet on our lap when we go out to dinner.  Anyhow, it ended up working out pretty well - Juliet can sit quite well by herself now, so she was fine in the high chair.  Now the only thing to worry about is how many germs are on that high chair!   

Sorry, this picture is kind of dark.  But this is Juliet in the high chair at the Mexican restaurant.  She's playing with a toy cell phone, despite my better judgement.

Juliet came down with a cold on Sunday (I don't think it was because of the high chair).  She spent the day sneezing and had a slight fever and was quite flushed.  She seemed better today but, wow, did she ever want to nurse.  I got nothing done today since I had a baby attached to my chest.  Oh well!
