More Regin Photos

Our little boy is already approaching three whole weeks old! WOW! :) I know, I am a little nuts and taking a few too many photos, but if you're here reading this then I am guessing you aren't averse to seeing more photos of the little critter. So here, below, is a sample, an abridged-Reader's-Digest version of the new batch of photos. If you want to see them all, or order your faves, you can check out the link here (46 photos).

Omma (and Mamma) takes Regin on his first walk to the park.

In a sweater and hat knit by Omma.

Getting a visit from JoAnn Mostir (mother's sister).

Regin with his cool Papi.

Sleeping on Papi's chest.

Cuddling with Omma.

The wooliest, knitting-est baby there ever was. Already we have a bunch of wool diaper covers made my Omma and JoAnn mostir, as well as lots of other items knit by Omma: several sweaters and hats, leg warmers, booties, a yummy blanket...

Getting a diaper change.

Elisabeth said...: Thanks Nyree & Teddi! Caroline -- T & I agreed last night that when he has his eyes closed he looks much more like George, and when he has them open he looks more like me. It's weird. Sometimes all I see is a mini George and sometimes it's a mini version of my dad (i.e. me).; 5/02/2007 3:42 PM

As for you - you look so much like your Mom that it freaks me out (and Katrin looks like my Mom and JoAnn looks like every single Hurley in all the old pictures.)

Wow - think about the ethnic mix that Regin is - pretty mind blowing, isn't it?

Love the pictures kiddo!

How we're doing right now.

April 6th, 2009
Oh man, moving back home has been quite a transition! For Regin especially. It has taken him three months to return to being fully, or almost fully, potty trained. But we're home and happy to be with friends and in an environment where things are easier.

But of course, not everything is easier. George's first day back to work he learned that the company was exiting the business and he and all the other people that work on that product (including all those people he trained in Penang) were told to look for other jobs.

His last day was March 31st. No time for that cozy little 'sabbatical' though; after he finished his last day of work, his family called and told us they are coming (from Florida) for a visit on the 10th! This would be no big deal (other than being terribly exciting) if we were fully moved back in, but of course, until now, we've had VERY little motivation to fully unpack! So now we're preparing the house at warp speed!

You know, I do miss Penang. Hard to say what I miss exactly, because I know it's more than our friends there, but I feel a certain pang. And all the time we were there, other than missing family, friends, easy living, and snow, I never once actually missed 'Colorado.'

When we got back to Colorado, I expected to have a new and complete love for the place. I do appreciate some things a lot more, especially visual things. I see beauty where I didn't before. But it hasn't been the feeling of home that I expected, and I still have some of the same issues with the place. But what I do love IMMENSELY and will always love IMMENSELY is the people we have here. And it's been absolutely amazing to see how Regin has picked right back up where he left off with his loved ones here. There's no doubt in my mind that he somehow remembers them.
