WANTED: A LITTLE SLEEP!!!

Have you seen this person? He's a bit under 9lbs, caucasian male, considered armed with spit-up and extremely dangerous. Approach with caution. Wanted on charges of sleep theft and diaper destruction. Do not attempt to apprehend this suspect, as he has a less than cherubic disposition!! Certainly we expected our young son to be a little cranky. If you truly know his parents, you understood the virtual certainty that he would be a bit on the moody side. HOWEVER, we didn't expect this! While he has calmed himself significantly in the last 24 hours, he has been an extremely fussy little melon-head. He still hasn't adapted to much of a sleeping schedule, which doesn't at all help our mood at all. He does OK at times, but for the most part he's up at least every other hour during the night.

His birth weight was 8lbs 4 oz, but it went down to 7lbs 10oz by the time we left the hospital. This, we're told, is perfectly normal. It stayed the same for the first week or so. This past Monday he got his second check-up, and weighed in at a whopping 8lbs 9oz! 11oz in one week! We're going to buy him some little shirts that show off his new bachelor belly. Health-wise, everything seems to be fine with him(knock on wood). We should have some more pics in the next few days.
