Visitors and Parties

Dear Vinny,

On Thursday night, Granny and Granddad came down for Uncle Wayne's heart surgery. They were really happy to see you and remarked about how much you had grown. They also brought with them a carload of presents, the vast majority of them for you.

After Granny and Granddad left on Saturday, we went over to Sho's house for his birthday. You slept for much of the time, but you were a big hit with Sho's parents. They really like babies but haven't had one in the house for a long time.

Then last night we went to my department's holiday party. My colleague Rick's wife Sarah really doted on you and enjoyed holding you. There was another baby there, who was 4 months old, but you were half his age and twice his size!

Then today we were special guests at the birthing class that Mommy and Daddy went to before you were born. We were there to tell the story of your birth and reassure people that they will make it through the ordeal. You were so cute that you stole the show. That's something I've gotten used to since you've been around. You are way cuter than Mommy or Daddy could ever hope to be!

Love,
Mommy
