Buddies

Tuesday evening entailed dinner provided by the Hoffmans and Romi's introduction to his first American friend, Jacob. It was quite a meeting. We think the hair-pulling was a gesture of love.


The babies got on famously, but what was most appreciated was Stefani's willingness to trim Romi's finger and toe nails. I admit it, I find the prospect daunting! He ended the evening with a bath.


Romi is still suffering from jet lag and having trouble sleeping at night. Rob and I are adjusting to the time change, although it's a slow process.

Wednesday was an eventful day. Romi had his first solid food: carrots. Although he began less than impressed, I think they grew on him (both literally and figuratively).


We stopped by the shul where Romi found his many admirers overwhelming, so he checked out by taking a half-hour nap. Unfortunately, he woke up in time to go the lab where they took blood. At first it hurt and then the process just ticked him off. It didn't do much for Rob or I either!

a trick for baby nail trimming. Take a small nail clipper and put them on your keychain. When he falls asleep in the car, you can trim him before moving him. He is asleep and can't skirm and his is "tied" in and can't roll away.
