Sometime between 3 am and 7 am Tuesday morning Anna's umbilical cord stump fell off to reveal her belly button!  Now I was a wee bit tired at 7 am but was determined to find the remaining piece that fell off because it was interesting looking at it on her and I wanted to look at it closer but I couldn't find it.  Not under/in her onesie.  Not in the diaper I was taking off.  Not in her bed, on the floor or on the changing table.  It was gone. I mentioned this to Damion when he came into her room and he said the belly button fairy toom it.  Kid you not, he said the belly button fairy.  When it was returned to us around three that afternoon.  I must say it was a bit disappointing.  It was basically like a rock hard raisin.

The next recent (as in yesterday) development is that Anna, Damion and I are the victims of colic. Per Anna's very patient pediatrician the cause is unknown.  No known treatment for it except to take car rides and swaddle her.  Basically grin and bear it for 3 to 4 months.  Her periods of screaming over the last two weeks have been between 9 pm and midnight.  So, our one request is that people not ask to much of me before 10 am sny day of the week and Damion on the weekends.  But you may get more updates from me that would be time stamped 12:48 am, like this one would be, since I'm awaiting confirmation she is actually asleep and not taking a break from screaming.  I am excited though because it is now Friday and tonight is Damion's turn.  As I'm teaching Anna, "Yeah Daddy."

 BTW - sorry for any grammarical errors, but it is almost 1 in the morning and I sm not in the mood to spell check or proof read.
