Matilda is now 12 weeks (and 3 days) old.
Looking back, she was so much smaller on the day we brought her home from the hospital.

Elephant wishes
Matilda enjoys her elephant rattle. It tastes good.
Happy birthday to Auntie Ben! We hope she enjoys her birthday as much as Mati enjoys her rattle. Here's to 30 being a delicious year.

Mini Googler
Last week, Mati slept through her first visit to Google.
Dad enjoyed showing her off. Sleeping babies are adorable.

Matilda's first friend
Yesterday, Matilda met her first new friend, Oceanne. Oceanne's mom, Emily, and I went to high school together.
With just three months between O and Mati, I'm sure they'll grow up to be great friends.

11 weeks old
Happy 11 weeks to Matilda. Before joining our family, she was a kicking baby bump in my belly. This video was taken two weeks before she was born.
Wow! What a big belly.

Strolling around
Mati and I enjoy taking a stroll around the neighborhood. We like to walk down Chestnut and Union as well as visit the Marina and Fort Mason.

24: The Matilda Chronicles
I was going through some papers and found the notes I took before Matilda was born.
The following events take place between 3am August 3, 2008 and 4am August 4, 2008:
- Kristin feels what she thinks is the start of labor at 3am.
- Matt gets the heads up that baby is on the way at 7am.
- Contractions are fairly speedy and regular from the start, at around 3 minutes in between.
- Arrive at CPMC at 4:40pm and seen by Nurse Chelan.
- Go home after observation at 6:35pm.
- Kristin quickly decides that we are headed back, and we arrive at CPMC at 7:35pm.
- Nurse Joy taks us up to the delivery room on the 2nd floor.
- Saline IV starts at 8:25pm.
- Dr. Chang, the anesthesiologist, starts Kristin's epidural at 8:45pm.
- Kristin begins pushing at 1:51am.
- Matilda Cole Smart is born at 3:41am.

1-2-3
Through a coordinated effort and in less than 6 seconds, Matilda had her vaccinations.
During Mati's 2nd month pediatrician appointment, two nurses literally counted 1-2-3 and then simultaneously stuck her in each thigh, not just once but twice for a total of four shots.
It was a rough day for all of us.

Baby ball
Matilda has grown quite a bit since these pics from 1 month ago.
She's still a little ball of baby but definitely heavier and longer. Her hair has thinned and lightened. She's also now cooing and gurgling.

2nd birthday
Happy 2 months to Matilda.
This month she gave us a wonderful gift--a smile. Plus, we caught it on film.
