Markus: Markus continues his pattern of eating 4-5 oz every 3-4 hours. He sleeps for 2-3 hours, pees/poops, and continues on his way. He is more attentive and able to focus on objects, which is fun to watch. He also likes his swing! We've also received some more gifts for Markus (and even for us, the parents!), and we're very touched and thankful for them all. Thank you!
Kitchen: Over the weekend we created a punch list (final list of touch-ups) for the contractor for our kitchen, so that should be finished soon and we'll set up final inspections this week. Then it'll be time to paint the hallway and clean up!
Commute: I've been commuting from my in-laws in Congers as we're not moving back to our house until all the construction is complete. Total door-to-door is about 1:45, but it's very peaceful. I drive to the Palisades Mall (about 10 mins) and get on a 6:50 bus. The bus is always standing there, and its never full. And it's very quiet. The bus takes me over the Tappan Zee bridge to the Tarrytown Metro North train station. Then I take a 7:25 express train to Grand Central Terminal (one or two stops), which arrives at 8:00ish. There are considerably more people, but I always get a seat. From Grand Central, I walk 7-8 minutes to work. NO SUBWAY. I didn't realize how stressed out the NYC Subway made me. It's by far the worst part of my previous commute and the one part I am not looking forward to again. I took the subway a few stops after work for drinks the other day and it was hell. Wow.
Sandra texts me a picture of Markus each morning when I get to work. It makes me extremely happy as I miss him (even his crying) during the day. Today's picture is Markus getting ready to go for a car ride:
