One of the cool things about being a babby is that i get to discover things for the first time that adults have known so long they've forgotten when they learned them.
For example, today I discovered that it hurts when you grab your own hair and pull as hard as your puny little baby arms can.

$$$ >=-=< Poop
One of the things I am very good at is turning money into poop. Daddy says it would be so much easier if he just put cash in one end of me and let the results . . . lots and lots and LOTS of results . . . come out the other.
Sleepy
I wish I could blog more often. But I'm just a baby. I need my sleep and so do mommy and daddy. Plus, I have a rash this week and am a little camera-shy until it goes away.

Good Mommy
Mommy is doing very well. Her belly feels good and she's lost twenty pounds. I take all the credit.
Named
I was in a synagogue for the very first time on Thursday so I could be named and stuff. I enjoyed the ceremony so much, I pooped! Twice!
Feeding Time!
I love to eat. Sometimes I eat so much I get sick later so mommy and daddy are having to pace my intake. But food makes me strong -- I was well past my birth weight after a week and must be closing in one nine pounds now.

Fussy Baby
Most of the time, I am well-behaved baby. Occasionally, I get just a little bit fussy. It's just so hard to explain to mommy and daddy when I'm hungry or tired or gassy or have a dirty diaper. but they deal with me reasonably well.
Oma
My daddy's mommy is in town to help take care of me. We get along very well and it's given mommy a chance to sleep.

Presents
One of the cool things about being a baby is that people you haven't even met give you nice things. My new home is filled with bottles and clothes and blankies. And before I had even opened my eyes, this present arrived from Don and Michele. Flowers are pretty. When I get older, I'll help mommie plant a lot of them in the backyard.
Learning to Feed
Mommy and I are figuring this thing out. It was so much easier when the food went straight into my belly. Speaking of bellies, does anyone know why daddy occasionally stands over the crib and tells me to "get in mah belly"?

Muy Fashion!
Today, my mommy dressed me for the first time. Now only 36 hours old, I have a better fashion sense than daddy.
Mommy
I tire mommy out, but she takes good care of me. She can't wait to bring me home. Her belly is healing up nicely.

My Day:
According to "Does Today Suck?" (http://doestodaysuck.blogspot.com/2007/06/june-4th-in-review.html), my birthday day rates as bad. My daddy, however, looked at wikipedia and found a lot of things I don't understand but he assures me are good:
In 780 BC, Chinese astronomers recorded the first historic solar eclipse
In 1584, Raleigh established a colony in North Carolina.
In 1769, a venus transit was followed hours later by a total solar eclipse.
In 1783, the Montgoflier brothers demonstrated their baloon.
In 1919, the 19th Ammendment to the Constitution of the United States was passed, which will, in 18 years, give me the right to vote.
In 1942, the United States triumphed at the Battle of Midway. In 1944, the US Navy capturd a U-boat and Rome fell to the Allies.
In 1973, the ATM was patented. I'm sure in about 16 years, my daddy will wish it hadn't been.
In 1974, the Cleveland Indians' 10-cent beer night went disastrously and hilarously wrong.
In 1989, the Tiananmen square massacred occured, but Solidarity won their first election in Poland. (My daddy gets quite animated on the subject of "commies".
I also share birthdays with King George III, Dr. Ruth, Robert Fulghum and Cecilia Bartoli. That means I should write and sing a lot about "intimacy" but go mad in my late years. Or, since I share a birthday with Angelina Jolie, I could just go mad when I'm young.

Talk
This is what I do anytime daddy tries to tell me something. This afternoon, it was something about "the Braves". Anyone know what he means?
Chapter One: I am Born
Well, today was an exhausting day. After being shoved against some bony thing for simply *hours*, I was suddenly dragged out from behind into a very bright light with a lot of strange creatues looming over me and making strange noises. Here is what I looked like only moments after that.
On the whole, I enjoyed it on the inside more. But my daddy tells me that in 15 years or so I'll discover boys, nice clothes and talking back, so I guess it's worth staying out here.
