Saturday morning flight.

Rhea does a couple things really well these days:

1) Standing up while holding on.
2) Scrutinizing and assessing new gadgets.

They say women generally make for better instrument pilots.

Oh yeah .....and:

3) sleeping in the back seat with her mother.

Bath + smiles

Rhea went through a patch where all baths were miserable. Those days are clearly over. During the course of this bath she actually attempted a nose dive out of the tub to reach her big yellow vuvuzella. More on that to come.

Happy mothers day to mommy Julie, grandmas Joanie and Judy and great-grandmother Pep!

We are missing all of you this year; ezcept granny Judy.

Have a wonderful day.

Lots of catching up to do - some recent shots of Re

Happy (one quarter) Birthday!

Brady RIP - special post for Uncles Marv, Kien, Terry and Johnny

We just had to take the opportunity to celebrate the demise of the stunted NE football dynasty. We were lucky enough to catch parts of both conference championship games yesterday and were wondering out loud what Tommy boy must be thinking at the time. As you can see Rhea was initially repulsed by the idea of donning the jersey of our AFC victims (think NYG 08) but when i explained that it was really a charity event to raise funds for the prescription anti-depressants required to treat all the greaving bostonians. I think Partners in Health has been assisting with the humanitarian effort. These shots were actually taken the day after the lowly ravens went the the 'fortress' of foxboro and demolished the hapless pats. more to come....

Little women

Her aunt Sophie made sure that the holiday season was indeed a time of serious RnR. We actually tried to pry them apart [as it looked a little precarious] but the link far exceeded the minumum GNBS saftey harness connectivity threshold. From our christmas day photo file.

Nurse Mary about to get a reaction.

That inocent little smile is just about to be wiped right off the face of the unsuspecting RTM. Jules could not have had better timing on this one. In Her first visit to the public clinic, OPV in the books as well. That's Oral Polio of course which elicited gurgles instead of the howling very nearly pictured at left.

Growing at a rate.

Clearly satisfied [momentarily] after another feeding frenzy. Her mother is performing heroically without the breast pump as we rush in replacement parts - thanks Becky!

Jungle Princess

Her mothers expressive hands on display featuring Julie's long tapered fingers - we can only hope she gets her hair as well. Not bad for a phone camerah eh? I'm finding they have their uses after all.

No doubt with this one that she's back home in Lethem.

A true RTMT Mahnster Yaaawn

Vintage material here of the little Demerara sleeping champion. Recently she's become far more vocal, routinely besting by this clip from our archives at least in terms of audio - as if suddenly discovering her ability to groan and grunt as an added emphasis. She's even come up with this unique machine-gunish warm up bark which she'll unleash only after the heartiest of slumbers. Getting that on tape would be something special indeed.

Not a flightless bird - she's a two legged mermaid.

Loved the agua from day one, Rhea has recently graduated to pure cold water baths; and with surprisingly little protest.

She'll typically get the customary oil-up and rub-down therapy followed by the slam dunk splash down routine. An initial wimper usually precedes a frantic and breathless polar bear experience that leads to deeper sleeps and a happier mother.

Oh yeah and less turnaround time for Pops as all the hot water has to be produced on the stove top of course.

Welcomed home to the Kanhai's house. Rhea was greeted by her to new best buddies when she arrived home from the hospital. Her Aunt Sophie must have looked all over GT for just the right huggable teddy-fauna.

Four day old meets 38,044 day old!

Do the math and get back to us on this one.

Day two

Mother and Child - our very own version of an enduring classic.

Sarah, these are for you and i'm sorry for not keeping the crew and the fam better up to speed. Have a safe trip home tomorrow and we do wish you all the very best! Keep us posted and we'll try to improve our frequency at this end.

Rhea at this time was shugging off some puffy-eye syndrome that last a little more than a day.

Thanks to Megs for the pink gown.
