milestones

I was a little worried that PC might snub me upon returning after a few days away. This time around, though, I returned to his happy smiles and the surest sign that he loves me: a well-targeted effort to nurse from the end of my nose. Being away is never easy, though my fantastic colleagues gathered at this year's NCA made it all that much better by asking to look at pictures, and indulging me by looking at one or two more than they had probably hoped to. Salut to friends far and wide!

We are happy to report that after a very brief apprenticeship, PC recently mastered rolling over from any position. Increased mobility has its downsides in terms of where he can lay down, but it also means the little reward of those times when he rolls over just because he wants to look at you.

A visit from Grandma A. is on the horizon ...
