Day 23

We have a new resident in our house. He is completely selfish, enjoys long sleeps, and has a vested interest in puking on things. His greatest ambition seems to be procuring copious amounts of milk from his mother which he requests by thrashing wildly and emitting mongrel-like sounds that would put any normal person in mind of a woodchipper and at least give you pause to think twice about putting his mouth anywhere near a body part onto which he could latch.

Not-So-Great Qualities:
  • Loves to excrete urine and feces on things. 
  • Doesn't "use his words".
  • Cannot watch West Wing with me yet because his eyesight sucks.
  • Refuses to apply problem-solving skills to find his pacifier that is literally a millimeter from his mouth (the same mouth out of which he just unceremoniously spit said pacifier)
  • Cannot ambulate.
Better Qualities:
  • Frequently goes "cross-eyed" when looking around.
  • Soft fluffy hair.
  • Lightweight.
  • Attempts to eat his hands.
  • Occasionally smiles.

"Awake"
WTF
Happy Face
Couldn't be less amused.
First Selfie

We're still in the trial period so no guarantees about keeping this thing around as of yet but he's growing on me.
