The Floyd Scale of Measurement

While in the hospital, Karis received many gifts from friends and relatives, all of which we love. I would like to single out one gift as it will be in the spotlight (if you can call it that...) for the next year or so. Karis's Aunt Marla and Uncle Charlie gave her a large stuffed pink dog which pancakes nicely on the floor. Per Tara's suggestion we are stealing an idea from my college roommate, Bob Smiley. He and his wife photographed their little boy every week next to the same stuffed animal. The resulting photo collection gave a consistent view into his growth over time. We will be doing the same thing with our stuffed dog.

With all of that said, our dog needed a name. It seemed obvious to me, Floyd...

So, every week we will be taking a picture of Karis with her stuffed dog Floyd so that we all can see how she is changing. I can't promise that the images will be added here every week, but at least every month. So here it is, your first shot of one standard unit of Floyd. Enjoy!
