Dylan Patrick Schafer: the First Two Weeks

Hello from snowed-in Prague. After several months we're back with a new feature on BPB: little man Dylan. He joined us on December 26, 09 at 11:07 am.

Thanks to everyone for the warm wishes. Granny Nanny & Grandpa Reno: big thanks for making the trip and for your support during the first two weeks. Uncle PJ & Aunt B: also big thanks for making the trip to celebrate with us.

The first two weeks with Dylan have been a blur. Here's what we know about Baby D:

Likes:
Sleeping on Grandpa Reno's chest. The Rolling Stones. Czech beer. Staying up late. Baseball (the word anyway...a promising start). Spitting up on his clothes.

Dislikes:
Thai food. Getting up before noon. Justin Timberlake. Blue football turf.

Unsure About:
Getting into his stroller. Most of his wardrobe featuring blue, brown, or an ensemble of blue & brown. Radiohead. Granny Nanny's infatuation with changing his diaper.



Without further delay:

Stretching with Dad in the hospital.

Hangin with Granny Nanny.

Meeting Grandpa Reno on the day he was born.

With Uncle PJ & Aunt Bronwyn in our apartment.

On his first outing: we took him next door to the Intercontinental Hotel for afternoon coffee.

That about does it for this post. Duty calls: it's 10 PM, Dylan is crying, and Molly is tired. To end, here's a photo of the Tyn Church I took as I walked home from the hospital the morning Dylan was born. Cheers.
