The new love of my life!

He's here!  Rex was born on July 22nd, 3 days past his due date.  He was 9 lbs. 9.5 oz when he was born, and 21 inches long.





Yeah, we went shopping at Fresh and Easy, and bought this little bug for a pretty good deal.  :)

He's wonderful.  No he doesn't sleep through the night--and if your kid did, don't tell me about it because it'll just piss me off.  I'm breastfeeding exclusively.  It started out to be much, much harder than I thought--it's definitely not as simple as putting your boob in his mouth and hoping he knows what he's doing.  Oh God, and the sleep deprivation.  Man, sleeping for more than 3 hours at a time is a luxury.

But he's healthy, happy, and is a sweetie pie.  I never thought I could love someone so much.  Justin has been great with him, although he likes taunting Rex when he cries.  Like, you know, putting him in a grocery bag to take pictures of him.

Right now, Rex is being fussy and Justin is stuffing Rex's nightie with towels and calling him a "fattie."  Our poor son.
Okay, I think I need to feed him AGAIN.  It seemed like I just got done feeding him.  More later.  Oh, and I'm 26 today.  Yay.
