Daddy's at home with the Baby!

As you've probably read, I've been hanging out with Sophia while Bethany has been rehearsing for The Importance of Being Earnest, a hilarious Oscar Wilde play. They opened the show last night, and Matt and Laura Watrous were kind enough to babysit so I could be there. It was a remarkably funny show, and I was ecstatic to see Bethany back on the stage after so long.

Bethany was right - between work during the day and being at home with Sophia while Bethany rehearsed in the evenings, I've definitely experienced a long energy-demanding month. Fortunately I've made it to the beginning of my parental leave, and I have to say I'm already extremely thankful for it. I am so thankful for the wonderful opportunity to be able to spend so much time away from work with our new baby girl, and I think Bethany and I will be able to spend some much needed time together after our long split schedule in September.

I'm really looking forward to having friends out next weekend when Sophia gets baptised, and I'm hoping to find a number of opportunities to grab some great snapshots with our new camera. I've also been eager to get a cable to connect our camcorder to the computer so I can put together a compilation of the cute moments we've caught on tape so far.
