Losers

I found out what losers are when I went to my first Cubs game.

First Day at Work

My dad lost a bet about whether I would be born closer to my mom's due date than some other baby with some other mom. So, today was Baby Day where my dad works, and my mom took me down there and we had lunch with the other baby and his mom and his dad, who works with my dad and who won the bet.

The other baby is younger than me but taller, and he didn't say much. The people dad works with are much more interesting. My dad's boss was having a bad day, but I made it better.

I've now met a few people, and feel like I know people pretty well. There are two kinds--the kind that gets really excited when they see me is my favorite.

Absent

My dad is gone the past couple days, which makes me fussy and not sleep well. Mom and some other lady have taken good care of me though.

We moved from one house to another recently, which is why I haven't been here. The new place is big and bright. Sometimes it's too bright to sleep. The new house is quieter, which I like sometimes.

Tummy

My tummy has been hurting on and off for the past few days. Farting helps somewhat, but only for a few minutes. Two days ago I went to the doctor, but she said I'm okay. I weighed in at 10 lbs 3 oz, for those of you who care about such things.

Other than the searing gas pain things are great. I really like spending time with the 'rents--we talk a lot about all sorts of things. I don't like it when they want to me to go to sleep though--to protest, I stick my bottom lip all the way out. If they don't take the hint, I have other louder means of protesting...

Resting

I haven't been sleeping much lately, which I guess is why I haven't had the energy to blog either. Nor have I felt like posing for pictures. I have been enjoying listening to stories lately though. Also there is an inchworm I like who is plush and colorful and about my size with big eyes. And a black and white doggie about the size of my head. I like all those.

DA pressing

We went to a big party today that was really noisy. I like noise, so slept most of the time. It has been really cold here the past few days, but I think I prefer that to being too hot. In the past few days I've discovered that I love to listen to the Eagles. They make me happy, then I get sleepy and wake up hungry. Try it!

Driving

Today I decided that I don't love driving anymore. I hate it. Nobody holds me when we're driving. I hate screaming too, but just can't help it sometimes.

I have a new swing. It listens to me and rocks faster if I talk to it. I like talking to the milk person and the no-milk person too.

DA Baby

Recently we went back to the doctor. This involved more time in the car, so I liked it. I'm still a fiddle, apparently, and that's good.

I usually find music very soothing, but yesterday I got this song stuck in my head and I didn't find it soothing at all. It's annoying, but there is a part of me that finds it strangely exhilarating too. This combination caused me to stay awake and scream for a very long time.

Driving

I love riding in the car. It's so relaxing. Sometimes it's the only way I can get to sleep. I love to sleep too. Next to eating, it's my favorite thing to do.

Bris

Yesterday was good and bad. More time in the car, which was nice. Then I was somewhere with a lot of people that wanted to hold me. I ate and slept a lot. Everything was going pretty well, when all of a sudden there's a bright light in my face and I get cold. I don't remember too much after that, other than drinking something other than milk which tasted bad but made me groggy, intense pain for a second, and some clapping. Then more people holding me, more food, more sleep, and more time in the car. Really not such a bad day.
