* Sharon came home today. They needed the beds. Too many women having babies!

* I picked up the chocolate cigars today. They aren't super-delicious, but they don't suck, either.

* Sharon is well, but a little tired. Lex woke her a few times last night.( Collapse )

* Sleep is a thing of the past

* Based on last night and the one before, Lex has decided, at this stage in his development, that the best time for his major feeds is from about 11pm onwards.( Collapse )

People expect babies to be a huge disruption to their lives, while nothing could be further from the truth.

Oh, there will be some minor adjustments, but nothing your life won't be improved by. Your child will bring a whole new sense of purpose to your existence. It will help you rearrange your priorities. You will not want to waste hours on worthless pursuits, because you will want to spend time with your child.

Such a vast improvement to your quality of life could hardly be called a disruption. It's a stepping stone, a becoming, a metamorphosis into someone new, different, better...

And your child will help you with this, because your child loves you. It doesn't want you getting confused about your priorites, because it knows this will upset you. It wants the best for you.

For instance, my son loves me so much, it's taken four tries over three hours to get this written.

Today I watched episode 1 of Dalek Invasion of Earth, with Lex asleep on my chest. Very cool :)
