I have a mohawk


and I'm adorable.

Y'all he's gotten SO BIG already! I can barely get my fingers around his thighs. I love it. Currently the Grifster is going through a growth spurt which means that he is basically on the boob 24-7. Tiring. I rewarded myself with some mint chocolate chip ice cream. Similar reward to when I was preggo--which I really really miss. I love this baby, but I miss being pregnant.

Currently his eyes are blue. Who knows where they will go. All I know is that he barely looks anything like me, he has a mohawk, and a mullet (and will soon have a belly button!)

In other news... our dumb dumb dog--Maggie--has quite the culinary pallet. A few months ago she ate Ben's prosciutto wrapped scallops and today she ate a big hunk of some fancy blue cheese. What tha what?

Just thought I should share this. Here's to hoping for a good night of sleep for ALL of us (now that we have our homedics sound machine that should be a lifesaver--so I hear.)

(ps. Mohawk, according to blogger, is apparently a proper noun.)

Tis a proper noun, there is a Mohawk Native American tribe. Hang in there. Its pretty tough the first few weeks and the kid constantly at the boob is exhausting and can make you feel a little trapped....hang in there, sigh, I feel for you.

Sigh indeed. He's perfect and I love him, but goodness, I'm exhausted.

I know you're tired, but hang in there girlie. I honestly barely even remember how exhausted I was at first, but gah it was hard back then... He'll get all this new stuff figured out soon enough!

Love that little mohawk =)

A,
That mohawk is SO cute! I will say...that I fear I too will miss being pregnant. It's been great so far.

Also...friend do me favor and email me your address.

I think it's super cute that his hair is spiking up like his dad's :) If he had more of it, he would have a total Ben Black 'do! Here's hoping that soon he learns to sleep like his dad, too - awoken by nothing.

A belated but heartfelt CONGRATS to you! Keep up the good work.
