Back in the Swing

We're back in the swing of life in Vienna now, yet jet lag's grip hasn't fully loosened. Bummer. We celebrated Chris's 32nd birthday downtown last Thursday with friends and belgian waffles, and the back to school staff cookout was last weekend. But, we cooked in. Rain.

It's really nice to see everyone at VCS again, and there are a lot of new staff this year. It's cool to put names with faces of people we've heard about for so long.

Cole is discovering so many new things daily, and it's truly a privilege for me to watch him grow. Unfortunately, though, he is getting another new tooth, we think, and he's eating like a MANIAC. I can't keep up with him, and he's unusually fussy and just plain wierd. Thankfully, we're heading to Dr. Stein on Wednesday so we'll see what she says about starting rice cereal before 6 months. That's what Austrians do. My pediatrician is Austrian. We'll see!
