Doin’ Daddy Duty tonight with the little guy. Mommy is only to be woken up in the event of feeding time, which of course she has been…so I get to slip away and post pictures. (No, not of that.)
My fellow baby guardians tonight: Oberon and Olivia. Olivia has apparently come around with regards to the baby. She’s more or less acting like Obi now. I think what had her unnerved was unexpected visitors yesterday (of which see more below), not necessarily Evan.
Oh, he looks harmless now. But this little guy can already hold his own head up for short periods of time, rip the binky out of his mouth, and hurl it somewhere. Don’t let your guard down for a second.
Obi checks on his new best pal ever.
Evan, in the meantime, has not a care in the world.
On visitors: I’ve been asked a couple of times when’s a good time to come see Evan (and us). The answer is: when he’s three. 😆 No, seriously, not that long, but give us a few weeks to get into this new rhythm as parents. Right now he needs to be fed every few hours, needs to be changed about as often (funny coincidence, that), and is keeping his mom and dad up all hours. I’ll be very gentle when I say that anyone just dropping in would not be catching us at our best (and would probably be sent packing by Xena in short order anyway) right now. I’m short on sleep, but not short on patience (yet) – what we’re doing is about as necessary as necessary can get. Jan’s short on sleep, and not short on pain from the surgery. So…smart money right now is on staying away for a little bit and giving us some time. And just know that you’ll be getting plenty of Evan in the blog here, so it’s not like I’m completely shutting everyone out.
Back to the daddy guard shack for me.
