First Day of Paternity Leave/2nd Doctor Visit

We were all pretty excited for my paternity leave to finally start on Monday. We had a big morning, including her two week weight check doctor's visit, trying out a new breakfast spot, and rounding out the morning with a trip to Costco. Violet was her usual sleepy/happy self through all of our errands and we got lots of love from random strangers everywhere we went.

Doctor Visit stats: weight is back to 8 lb, 6 oz which was birth weight (52nd %ile). Length is 21.75" (96th %ile). Head circumference 36.8 cm (88th %ile).

We ended up sheltering in the basement for a couple of hours during a thunderstorm that included a tornado warning (see family selfie, naturally). The storm was excellent, as were the West Wing reruns we watched. Nearby Ann Arborites with giant downed trees in their bedrooms were less pleased. No good pictures of the storm, but Angela did post one on Facebook of me wading down our street in my rubber boots. Like a boss.
