Gripe Water


Our new best friend ... Woodward's Gripe Water. Important ingredients include dill seed oil as a carminative and sodium bicarb as an antacid. It's also alcohol- and sugar-free (unlike its predecessor). Best of all - it works immediately to stop colicky crying and helps him burp like a trooper (apologies to the troopers out there!)
There's something intriguing about old-fashioned remedies with such basic names that makes me think they'll work; this didn't disappoint! Hurray!

Watch this space


The question is...Will his hair turn out as red as his dad's?


(At George's last check 3 days ago, he weighed in at 10 lbs. and measured 56 cm long - quite acceptable!)

Zzzzz


Ahhhh...to be that age again. Since George doesn't like to be left alone, ever, he naps in anyone's arms.

First Art Project


Here is George's first art project at 4 weeks old. He did have a little help from his parents, although it doesn't seem to have done much good.
The green and red are left and right hands, respectively. The blue and yellow are left and right feet, respectively.
