Ollie is 17 weeks today. On Thursday she will be 4 months old! She surprised us this past Thursday by rolling over from back to front for the first time, and repeating this new trick several times over the past few days. Each time she does it she gets frustrated to find herself on her tummy, which she doesn’t like, and then cries until we help her back to her back. I have a feeling that she’s going to start doing this in the crib, so our currently sleep-filled nights should get more interesting soon.

She’s also going through a super fussy feeding period, where basically she is very distracted by her new clear vision and wants to twist her head around all over the place while (or instead of) eating, to see the world. I was getting frustrated by this, thinking she’s not eating enough, but just read in one my multiple baby books that this is totally normal behavior for her age, and in a week or two she’ll go back to feedings with her normal vigor.

This week we are celebrating Thanksgiving with a visit from Geoff’s brother, dinner at Matthew, Kristen, and Paxton’s place, and a Friday visit with Jill, Morgan, and Pearl at their new house in Fishkill! I am over the moon at having 5 full days to spend with Ollie and Geoff. Just have to make it through tomorrow and Tuesday…

Amazing tune. A tribute to the 313 (Detroit) with an electro meets boogie with the mothership coming down sound. So great. And the lyrics are very inspiring. - G

From the upcoming and much talked about “Body Issue” by ESPN. D.C. United of Major League Soccer line up for a photo shoot in what every kid has nightmares about. Y’know the one you show up to your game with no pants and you’re running around on the field naked. Then you wake up and you’re so happy to know it was just a dream. All I can say when I see this is “Ouch!” - G

I know this song has been overplayed but I can’t help but get chills when I listen to it. I also know for a fact that Richard Sanders, my mentor, is behind their success. Every rock band that guy touches goes platinum because he knows how to angle the artists to generate the right kind of exposure. I think I sang this so much over the weekend, A was humming it, and my friend Tom thinks that they may never recover from their success because they have actually become TOO big. :) - G
