Avery's Relaxing, Jack's Playing, Robyn's Writing, Brad's Travelling

That pretty much sums up what each of us has been up to in the last three weeks. Avery continues to be a very mellow baby. She loves to sit in her vibrating pink chair and watch all of us do stuff. She rarely cries and she's sleeping better now that we went back to swaddling her at night. Her long stretch is between 4 and 6 hours every night. That would be even better if Jack would sleep past dawn. Now that the sun comes up early, he generally starts stirring before 6. Apparently, I used to get up early when I was kid so I guess this is my payback. When does fall start again? :-) Avery seems like she's going to be a good eater. We had steak tonight for dinner and she was imitating Robyn bringing her fork to her mouth. She also licked her lips and opened her mouth as if to say, "I'll take some!"

Jack's been doing great, but recently has shown a few signs that he misses being the only child just a tad. He whines a little more than he used to and has become even more particular than he was before, but other than that though, he's great. He gives Avery lots of hugs and kisses and loves talking to her. She stares in amazement at him and likes watching his antics. He's gotten better at hitting the baseball off of the tee and loves playing in the backyard.

Robyn has been working on rewriting one of her scripts for a producer that is interested in seeing it. It's tough to do with the baby around in the morning and impossible when both kids are home in the afternoon, but she's been making some progress and hopes to send it off in the next day or two. She's still doing her Netflix movie reviewing gig and as we speak is watching another classic movie. Not sure if it's just me, but she seems to get allocated a lot of black & white movies to review.

As for me, I did a mad dash to Korea last weekend for work. There aren't any pomegranates in Korea, but there are people who want to buy them and we have to figure out a few things to make that happen. The trip was very short: I left Saturday afternoon LA time, arrived Sunday night Korea time, had meetings Monday and Tuesday morning and then landed back home Tuesday morning LA time. I spent most of the time at the hotel but did get to spend about two hours at this tower on top of a mountain in the middle of Seoul. What a fantastic view!

Well, this entry has gotten a bit long, so I'll sign off. I'll post some pictures of everyone tomorrow.
