Babies are so amazing. They're cat-sized but human shaped. His little hands are beautiful and delicate. His ear is pointy and his hair is velvety soft. A beautiful little creature!

Here is Kota, again sleeping, the only time I have to take pictures of him, it seems. He's sleeping now too, as I type this. We bathe him at nine, feed him after that, take him to bed and he sleeps till one or two. Then a meal and he sleeps till five or six. He's usually wide awake in the morning, but by ten or eleven he's alseep. Tomo's sleeping now too. They'll both be up in a few minutes for lunch. Everyone says babies change quickly and that you can't predict their behavior a week from now based on their behavior today. He might not always be such a good sleeper, but it's certainly made the transition to life-with-child easier that he has slept so well so far.

Welcome to the world, newest Lug Brother. This is Kota. As I write he is sleeping peacefully. During the day when he sleeps he stretches his arms up in the air and makes the most charming funny faces you can imagine. But now he's just quietly breathing in and out and in and out and the music-box-Enya is playing softly in the background and it's the weekend and we're a family of three and his mom is catching forty winks and now that I think about it I'm sitting down and doing something not directly baby related for the first time since he came home on Tuesday but now I look up and see those skinny newbaby arms reaching up in the air for a big stretch and I'm happy to put the computer down on the ground and pick him up in my arms and just sit with him and share a little bit of that peace.

Beer Time
It has been quite awhile since there has been a beer review posted. So for good measure here are two.
The first is Unibrue 15, an anniversary strong ale from those Belgian loving French-Canadian brewers. This is a beer that I got for Christmas several years ago and have let it age, as it is an ale-on-lees, which means it gies through a secondary fermentation in the bottle. It was a very smooth, potent swill after 5 years of sitting. It was a nice golden color with not a lot of corbonation left Dad and I share it after Sam birthday.
The other one is Furry from North Peak brewing in Traverse City. This is a brother brewery to the Jolly Pumpkin brewery. I have yet to have a bad beer from them. Just wish you could buy it in Indiana. Furry is a black Indua Pale Ale, which is kind of oxymoronic in beer terms. But oh well, it tastes great. It has a big citrusy smell that hits you first, but surprisingly it is not overly loaded with hops, very well balanced.
