I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?
Baby
day of firsts
We went down to the Ocean today. Paela had her first rainstorm, with lightning and thunder. It was a blistery afternoon.

Baby walks!
The good news is that Paela gained back some of her lost birthweight. The bad news is that she hasn't gained back all her birthweight. The pediatrician said she likes to see babies gain 1-2 oz. a day and Paela just isn't catching up. Unless the pediatrician's scale is different than the hospital's. After our experience with mismeasuring the kid in the hospital, I wouldn't put it past the pediatrician to have a false measurement. Hopefully this Monday we can prove that Paela eats like a ravenous wild beast and the pediatrician won't tell us to supplement with formula. My mom told me that I did the same thing when I was born and didn't gain back my birthweigth very quickly. So our long lanky baby might just have my genes.

You want what now?
"Are there security cameras in the Maternity suites? Can I fall asleep with my baby in the room? How will I know who really is part of the staff?"
