I'm back to work now...After taking 2-1/2 weeks off to spend time with Jaime and our new little one, McKenna. Jaime is still at home for another couple months and has her hands quite full from what it sounds like. I wish I could be there as well to see the new everything is that I'll most surely miss. I'm also sleeping in another room because McKenna wakes up every few hours for feeding or cranky time. I keep telling Jaime she has to nap when Jaime naps during the day, hopefully she'll get some rest after the schedule we're trying to establish takes hold!

Our new little bundle of joy is so cute. Even when she's screaming. Which lately has been a lot. We've found that when she screams and you blow on her face, she stops for a second and raises her eyebrows and squints her eyes and look right at you as if to say "What the ?" and then continues to fuss. It's quite cute.

We thought she had an eye infection or pink eye or something because her left eye was gunking up all the time and was really red. We also thought that she had a fever and was taking her temperature with 3 different thermometers every few minutes. Jaime called the doctor and they said it was a blocked tear duct, happens in about 80% of newborns and isn't serious at all, just to keep cleaning the gunk with a wet cloth. Now why couldn't they have told us that before we freaked out for 14 hours straight??? :) I have a feeling there will be many, many more instances like that.

One thing I have to say is thank God for digital cameras. I would be so broke and in debt if I had to pay to develop all of the pictures we've been taking of her.
As we do every year, Jaime is cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the family. Although this year instead of the entire extended McConnell/Probst family we're just going to have Jaime's mom, dad, sister and friend as well as Jaime, McKenna and I. There will be lots of food, and hopefully some naps as well. I get Thursday and Friday off work, and have now homework to do over the weekend so that should be nice.

We've seen a new dvd's lately Bewitched gets 2-1/2 diapers. Christmas with the Kranks gets 2-1/2 diapers. House of Wax gets 2-1/2 diapers. Land of the Dead gets 3 diapers (just because it was so campy but still made seriously, and it had a guest cameo by the Shaun of the Dead director and lead actor). Also, we finally finished the first season of Veronica Mars which gets 5 diapers.

That's it for now, keeping checking out nellnell.com for new baby pictures and other fun stuff. Also, I've added some more links to other friends sites. Check them out when you have time.
Hope all is well with you and yours, and have a great Thanksgiving!
