1 week in...
What a week it has been! Anna came home with us on Tuesday after being proclaimed in perfect health by the doctors. It has been a week of firsts: first bath, first walk, first doctor's appointment, first spit-up.... the fun never ends!
Anna turned one week old yesterday! She had another doctor's appointment this morning and she weighed in at 7lbs, 4 oz, up from her birth weight of 6 lbs, 15 oz. The doctor was impressed with her weight gain, but her parents expected no less as she has been eating non-stop all weekend long! Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop Lannutti have been with us all week and head back east on Tuesday. On Friday, Grandma and Grandpa Perone and Aunt Laura arrive for Labor Day weekend. We have even more visitors scheduled in late September and early October.... Anna is a popular young lady!
Brian and I are totally in love with Anna and thoroughly enjoying parenthood. We are overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support from our friends and family. Thank you all!
Love,
Brian, Karen, and Anna

And we wait...
Still no new developments. But we did venture out to the CA state fair today, where Karen commiserated with a fellow pregnant lady (see photo). She's due the day after Karen!
The hope was that a day of walking and fried foods would be "productive", but all that we got was sore feet. On the plus side, I managed to avoid the temptation of the battered, deep-fried White Castle burger this year. The garlic fries, not so much...

Witty rebuttal
I'm not impatient, I'm just eager. And I need someone to make use of my office-turned-nursery, right now it's just sitting there empty!

In response to popular demand...
Welcome to the Perone Family Blog! We plan to use this space to provide updates on our daughter to family and friends. She is due one week from today, on August 24th, her maternal grandmother's birthday!
Okay, so here goes... we've had many requests for a "pregnant Karen" picture, so against my better instincts, I've provided a picture here of my big ol' belly at 38 weeks.
Things are going very well; I've had a relatively easy pregnancy. Now we are just playing the waiting game. I know you are all SHOCKED by this - but Brian is more impatient than me for her to arrive (I know, I know, you are all saying, "Brian? Impatient? No!" :))
We will make sure to post information here as soon as there is any news; although I imagine our Facebook friends will have a jump on the info as it will be easier to update from the hospital. Thank you for all of your prayers and well-wishes!
Love,
Brian, Karen, and Baby Perone
