Daisy is now smiling in response to us. Now starts the rewarding part of parenting :) I got about 6 pics this morning. They are all kind of grainy because I didn't want the flash on in order to increase my chances of getting that baby grin caught on film....er..memory stick. She's also cooing more and more. And lastly, the child actually has one sleep that is 3.5 to 4.5 hours. It starts in the early evening, usually around 7:30, I go to bed at 10, Chris will stay up and take care of her around midnight then usually he can sleep until morning while I get up around 2 or 3 and the next time she gets up I just stay up for the day. I wake up feeling a heck of a lot better every morning.

Yesterday my sister came and played with Tabitha while Chris and I (and Daisy) went to Target to finish up the Easter basket shopping. I think Tabitha will be pleased with her basket. There's a sticker book, two Scooby-Doo Madlibs, a Powerpuff Girls look-and-find book (like Where's Waldo?), My Little Pony playdoh, sidewalk chalk, eggs with playdoh inside and I think a couple other small items. We'll be putting various candies in the eggs, plus 12 eggs will have bouncy balls, 5 eggs will have $1 in Disney dollars and one egg will have a $5 Disney dollar. I may put a couple regular one dollar bills in some eggs as well. Daisy's basket will have a small bunny and a Who Loves Baby album that Tabitha haves and wants Daisy to have one as well. I need to get some pics printed out to put in it, but I don't know if I can get that done before Sunday.

Chris won tickets to a They Might Be Giants show last night at the House of Blues Sunset Strip. It was 18+ so Chris took his brother instead of Tabi. She was okay with it though because the two of them are going to an instore signing tonight. Anyway, Tabs and I colored eggs last night and we're both pleased with how they came out. The dye set we got includes stickers to turn the eggs into people so Tabitha will do that part this morning most likely.

And now I'm off to wake the other parental unit so I may jump into the shower.
