Our first battle lost....

We were successful in our efforts not to give a pacifier to Anja. Although Anja does not know a pacifier, she is beginning to experience the wonders of her very own thumb. Despite our best efforts, I think we are going to lose this battle. We are sure it is only the first of many. Let's hope she does not take after one of her parents. As a young child, this parent had to wear socks on their hands to prevent thumbsucking. Apparently, this parent was so used to the socks on the hands, that when told to "put on your socks" the child held out its hands.

Not much else is new. I am sure we will have an interesting blog next week. Anja will be taking her first plane flight to Austin, TX over Labor Day.

We could not resist, here is a cute picture of Pip!
