priceless indeed - I love the little fist that says "Love me fool!". And the Christmasy outfit rocks :)
What a perfect little Christmas elf.
Hey, did the package arrive? Sorry I didn't get a card or letter included but I'm kinda Canada-post challenged.
Love that picture! He looks like a feisty one.
Word up and all hail the baby!
(Adorable!)
Those sound like good (and accurate) numbers to me. He's GORGEOUS!
Dove's boyfriend is SOOOOO CUTE!
and, oh yeah, baby, my numbers are about the same, give or take 20 days.
That was a great post. Very clever! It certainly does bring back a lot of memories.
That picture is also priceless! So cute!
Oh yes, priceless.
that is quite the tally.
the spit ups after a bath or poos right after a new diaper are like the universe giving me the finger.
again.
he looks like a sweet little candy cane
you should read the book Cally's Tally. It's also been made into a lovely play.
oh he's adorable!
Oh, he is a CUUUUTIE. Sigh. The joys and trials of newbornhood. I miss it.
ah yes. i earnestly miss those early days now that i know enough to appreciate them for the glory they were.
Oh yeah, I remember. (And unlike Jen I don't miss those days.) But how cute he is! And so cuddly.
I hear you on the unprotected nipples...

oh nomo! that hat is the best thing ever!
Running on empty
it's a funny kind of math, isn't it? and yet it all adds up to sooo worthwhile. he's beautiful, and dear.
I think I JUST got 3 straight hours sleep last night so way to go!
Otherwise, I think our stats our pretty similar--other than number of projectile poops!!!
Love this!
CONGRATS!!!!
Absolutely priceless!
Just look at him in all his cuteness!
