Family Visit # 2, More Pictures, and Other Life Advances

Sal's parents (Dadijan and Dadajan) left a few days ago after a week-long visit in Boston. Once again, we had help with cooking, cleaning, dishes, and holding the baby. Nuri had a lot of "firsts" that week: his first trip to the grocery store, his first time in a restaurant, and his first time being out of the house for 4 consecutive hours (including a feeding in the mother's room at Babies 'R' Us). We also had a few firsts, such as our first time successfully folding the stroller and fitting it in the trunk in under 5 minutes.

Since our last posting, we bought a glider off of Craigslist, I went to work twice to work for a couple of hours, the Red Sox won the World Series while I slept, and we discovered that nbc.com puts full episodes of The Office online for free.

Nuri also had his one month check-up today and he's doing great! He is gaining weight, height, and head circumference right on schedule. Sleeping and eating (often at the same time) are still his two favorite activities, with pooping coming in a close third.

Of course all family visits bring on new pictures and videos. The slideshow is below, but you can also check out our web albums for videos and full-size pictures. We're looking forward to seeing Sal's family again when we venture to the Bay Area in the spring (hopefully) and we're looking forward to our next family visit during Thanksgiving, when my parents are coming.
