About the Peanut


Name: Daphne Claire
Age: 3 weeks, 1 day
Weight: 8 lb, 6 oz.
Eyes: Still blue so far.
Hair: Red (?!) and unruly

Likes: Sleeping, eating, bath-time (especially hair washing), toys, making funny faces, taking walks with daddy, swinging on the front porch, playing on the Gymini.

Dislikes: Diapers, diaper changes, being woken up from napping, having to wait more than thirty seconds for food.

Best friends: Ralph Monkey, Mommy and Daddy.

It has been quite an adjustment, but we are all doing well. Sorry I haven't had much time to call people or email or blog. I usually try to sleep when I have a block of time. Daphne is great, we are so proud of her. She is more and more alert every day, and she keeps us entertained with funny faces and baby noises. Hope you are all well. More blogs coming soon...

She is a beautiful baby! I am so happy for ya'll. Especially Ralph. I know he is happy to have a friend his size in the house. He probably doesn't care much for the baby noises but he will get use to them. :) Glad to hear your adjusting well to mommyhood. Isn't it fun!!!

Well, there just ain't nuthin' better than a baby to change yer whole danged life for the better. Adios to just about every thought you ever had about ANYTHING else ... at least for a while. Now you can say FOR SURE that you know what love is. Good for you guys ... sahe is SO beautiful.

Just one thing though ... how come you song-writin'-types ain't writ no dang song 'bout that BABY yet? Huh?

I did! I wrote a swing tune called The Peanut. Not sure if it'll ever get recorded though due to insufficient trumpet-playing skills.

I heard him play it on the trumpet last night. Not perfect, but it's close...just needs a little more practice. By the way, Daphne slept right through trumpet practice!

Thx for the addt'l blog entry. ;)

Halfway expected to see a musical note wafting out of D's open mouth (top photo). A possible future PPHPHB album cover? :)
