This week has been a little more challenging for both Tracy and I as parents. Taya has been pretty happy, but gas has been parent enemy #1. Taya seems to eat a lot and have some difficulty passing gas, but when she finally does she is able to sleep for a few hours. Just one of those baby things.

Nima has taken to her dog-bed even now more to escape the madness. A few night this week she has even gone and gotten in our bed before us. I guess she isn't use to working all day. Before Taya came along she would sleep away her mornings.

We are still waiting to get on a better schedule with Taya, but at 2 and 1/2 weeks, she is doing well we think.

Tracy is doing well, she has gotten back into her closet and found that most of her clothes are fit again, even some of her jeans! Walks in the evening have also been helping us all to get out and get some fresh air in the evenings. We are lucky to have had one of the coolest Augusts I can remember.

Thanks to everyone for calls, letters, and gifts we are working on sending out baby announcements and thank yous!

Little miss Nima is always on guard.

The latest Mann Family photo, it probably will be seen again at Christmas.

Bath time, Thanks Ben and Brigid for the bath gadget, Taya seems to love it.
