For Auntie Erin and Uncle Jan

He was in his 'bah humbug' outfit today and with his navy hat that was a tad too big he looked like a drunken sailor, so my mom, Jeff and I all had that song stuck in our head today. I didn't have the camera when he looked like the drunken sailor so I don't have pictures.

Went out to breakfast with Kate, then a quick stop to mom and ricky's to feed him and then came home for the rest of the day. Unlike yesterday (where he slept for a total of 22 hours!) he was awake for longer spurts throughout the day. Which is good, we like playing with him. It is pretty tiring though.

I was afraid that last night would be brutal because he slept so much during the day, but I fed him at 9, 11, 2:30, and then 6. So I got a pretty good sleep - it's not quite the same as sleeping straight for 6 hours, but from experiences I have heard and read from new mothers, I have it pretty good (yes, I am knocking on wood right now).

The three of us took an hour long walk this afternoon, the weather is absoloutely incredible. Who would have thought we'd be out walking in our running shoes, spring jackets with the little guy in the middle of January? I love getting out, the fresh air is great for him (and us). He's had his bath, he's had a bite to eat and now he's taking a nap. Hopefully his witching hour won't be too bad tonight for Daddy and he sleeps well again through the night.
