day 4

Hello again!

I'm four days old today. Yes, I can count to four! Day four is kind of tough. Today has been a very eventful day. I haven't slept much, and I've been pretty much hungry all day, feeding about every hour and a half (and considering I feed for 30-45 minutes, that's a lot of time feeding). Between feedings, I slept very little. Some of my awake time was very happy, and some of it was not so happy. You know, I'm just getting used to this strange, new world. It's a crazy place!

I wanted to share with you some of the highlights from the last couple days:

Going Home from the Hospital

On Monday, we came home from the hospital. Mommy and Daddy thought I'd cry the whole way home, but I surprised them with a quiet ride. It's due mostly to the fact that I love and trust my mommy so much. I know that when she's around, I'm safe.

Bath Time

I had my first bath yesterday. It was a little traumatic for me. Those people put me in a big white "box" and let me lay there naked and cold. I hated it!

But afterwards wasn't so bad. Mommy cuddled and snuggled me and all was well. I was safe with mommy and warm again. Plus, I was extremely cute.

Working Out

So I've been trying to work out lately. I came out a little skinny, butI'm working on building muscle tone. Here's a picture of me flexing for daddy.










Sleeping

So I sleep a lot. While mommy and daddy like to put me in a cage to sleep (they call it a crib), I prefer to sleep with them:

Girls

While mommy and daddy don't think I'm interested in girls yet (and don't tell them!), I already have one girlfriend, and I'm working on a couple more :) Above is my girlfriend Mia. She's an older chick -- and very beautiful too. Maybe I shouldn't have a girlfriend that is 7 months older than me, but I've already fallen for her. Besides, in a few years, 7 months won't be a big deal; we might even be in the same grade! From the picture, it seems she's taken a liking to me as well.

They do say I'm quite the ladies' man.
