Just one of those rainy autumn days what you don't feel like doing anything but curling up. The baby is closing in on 5 months, and she's perfect cuddling material; independent head movement, not so fussy, giggly and curious. Enough to warm a father on a cool rainy sunday.
A few of my buds have entered into fatherhood this summer too, so this next year will be a year of firsts for us all. Very cool to be able to share this feeling with those closest to you, and share the happiness along with the anxiety...this is life. Live it and love it.
The girl, or The Bear as we call her is presently napping for now over 1.5hrs which is nearly record time. Mommy's out do it's daddy day today, but mommy will be pissed at the map time because The Bear only sleeps for 25min with mommy. Daddy's got the Magic Touch - oh yeah!
Biggest change so far? My To Do list grows longer and longer like a tapeworm (ed. bad analogy) as free time evaporates taking care of the bear. You have to force yourself to be efficient, doing what you can as she sleeps. That also means figuring out your priorities, which is a good thing: focus on what matters most, and realistically that is my daughter. Who can say no to those eyes?
