Claudia weighs almost 12 pounds now, which means she has grown almost 50% in 9 weeks. She is starting to reach for things and play with some toys a bit. She also seems to be vocalizing a bit more.

However, she has a bit of a stiff neck so she is going to a bit of theerapy for it. The therapist asked Kasey to bring a toy so Claudia would be enticed to look at it from both sides. The therapist laughed because Kasey brought a book ("with lots of colors" she said). The therapist said Claudia must be a child of teachers.

Monday is my knee surgery and that should go fairly smoothly, I hope. Lots of things at school right now so it will be nice to be healthy

Tomorrow Stacy visits from Pennsylvania to see Claudia. And Villanova plays Syracuse. Kasey and Stacy went to Villanova, and I have a degree from Syracuse. I think Syracuse has won at least one title in the past twenty years.
