My Daily Routine

Well, life home from the hospital is pretty easy. All I have to do is eat, sleep and poop at any hour of the day or night. The key is to look absolutely adorable so that Mommy and Daddy don’t mind doing anything they can to take care of me. They were a little scared the first night when they got a grand total of two hours of sleep. They also realized how many diapers a newborn really does go through. The last few nights, however, I’ve let them sleep for three-hour slots. Now they can crawl out of bed at 6 AM (Daddy first) feeling a little more rested. I had my Well Baby check on Tuesday. I`mat the 50% mark for both weight and height. I was just shy of my original birth weight, so I’m doing very well! I think I finally have this breastfeeding down. Mommy says I’m a natural. I make the cutest faces after I’m done feeding. I get the hiccups about half the time, too. I’ve also been able to meet many of Mommy and Daddy’s friends from work. Of course they all said I was the cutest baby they’d ever seen. (Or maybe that’s just how Mommy and Daddy remember the story.) My parents bought a new glider. Daddy put it together last night and it’s now my favorite place to sit. I love it when Mommy and Daddy hold me there to rock me, feed me and read to me. Otherwise, I sleep about 17 hours a day. When I'm awake I like to stare at Mommy and Daddy.Well, it’s about that time…should I eat, sleep or make Daddy change another diaper? Tee-hee.
