Awww Moooooom!

What'll the other kids say when they see me getting smooched?

Drew had his "two week checkup" today, and he's getting to be a big boy (tear). He is 21" long and 8 lbs 3 oz. He likes to play a game with Mommy and Daddy... He likes to see how little sleep we can survive on, or as we call "Hide and Sleep." This is when we hide underneath the covers to go to sleep, and he counts to 10 (or thereabouts) and then starts crying. He must think its hilarious deep inside, because he keeps doing it! We love him anyway

I Get to Cut the Cord... Again

Work has been crazy lately, and I haven't been getting home until about 6:00, which is usually just in-time to catch the messiest diaper of the day (I don't think I'll ever be able to eat curry again). Today I got an added surprise to the blowout (that's what we call an explosion in the diaper), Drew's umbilical cord was holding on by a thread. Being Dad, I figured it would be better to cut the "thread" than to have it get ripped-off during a diaper change, so I took the opportunity to once again cut the cord. It was bittersweet, especially because although I can't wait for him to grow up, I don't want him to grow up... at least not too quickly. Here's a post cord shot, isn't he cute!

The Life Cycle of a 10 Day Old

Sleep... Eat ... Poop...Pee on Dad... Back to Sleep.

Even though this seems monotonous, Nik and I fall more in love with the little Dude everyday. We are so glad his jaundice is better and can get on with life. Here's what our big 10 day old looks like!
