Daddy's Girl

When Phoebe was born, all the nurses at the hospital told Jeremy that she would have him wrapped around her little finger before he knew it.  This information has been repeated to us by bar tenders, random people at Target, and the checkout guy at Trader Joe's.  Through it all, Jeremy has maintained that he will not be swayed by baby cuteness - he is going to be the kind of father that rules with an iron fist.  I am not so sure.  Phoebe is totally in love with her daddy.  When he comes home from school, she gets a huge smile on her face and makes happy baby noises.  When Jeremy leaves the room, Phoebe will fling her head off the back of the bouncy seat to try to follow him.  Daddy seems pretty smitten with Phoebe too.  He is always making up silly songs (I was informed that they are not silly, they are musical masterpieces) and cute little games for them to play together.  Tonight they came up with a new game where Jeremy rubs Pheobe's feet on his beard to tickle them.  It completely cheered up our little grumpus (it was also darn cute to watch):

PS (I just realized that "grumpus" in the last sentence was a little ambiguous.  I had meant for it to refer to Phoebe who had a rough day - but I think the tickle game also cheered up Jeremy so I guess I should have said that the new game cheered up our grumpusES)
