Mike mentioned (in the comments section -- everyone should leave comments!) how he's noticed that Mather is becoming more and more expressive. I think these two photos certainly help confirm that...
While Mather is getting more interesting at home, Emily has finally been able to return to work, albeit in a limited role. For now, we're both working part time. Emily goes in for four hours in the morning, and then I go in to work in the afternoon.
This morning was my first morning alone with Mather. We had a great time. After she obediently dozed while I made coffee and ate breakfast, we went for a walk through the Panhandle and up to the top of Buena Vista Park. The scenery was spectacular -- the air was crisp, the sky clear, and from the top of the hill you could see out over the Pacific in one direction, across the Bay in the other while the Golden Gate Bridge linked the two. It was shiveringly cold, but Mather was warm and content snuggled up against my chest in a Baby Bjorn. She napped through most of the walk and didn't cry at all.
I'm looking forward to more beautiful mornings with her!

And a fabulous job you did! Only a couple calls to Emily at the office. Seriously, you seem to be embracing fatherhood and the pictures of you and Mather together are wonderful.
sounds idyllic. thanks for the continuing updates!
She's a pretty awesome kid. You two are doing a great job!
