David : Sep 25, 2009 Over One Week Old   

Well, I survived my first week at home. I lost the rest of my umbilical cord last night. I am pooping regularly and often. And I am a very hungry boy most of the time. Mama can't get over how calm I am. I guess my brother Adam was very shifty and moved around all of the time and had to be swaddled to go to sleep. I lay very calmly and stretch occassionally. I like to be swaddled but it's not necessary for me to be able to fall asleep. I don't spit up much, but I make a lot of dirty diapers. Aunt Suzy has been a trooper changing me all of the time. Right now I go to sleep around 10 p.m., wake up around 1:30 a.m., go back to sleep around 3 a.m. and wake up again around 7:30 a.m. Mama is enjoying this schedule right now because she is getting a decent amount of sleep. She does make Dada get up occassionally to top me off with a bottle if she's really tired. Dada doesn't mind..that is once he actually wakes up to realize where he is and what mama just asked him to do. These parents are kind of slow in the middle of the night.

Okay, well I'm getting hungry. Time to harrass mama.
