It is so great to be back home. WOOHOO!!!
After catching 2 trains in 2 degree weather(not considering wind chill), your mom picked me up at the train station. Unfortunately, she had to go back to work. So I dropped her off then zoomed home.
After grabbing all my bags, I ran inside and there you were hanging out with Grandma Lopez. You looked very happy. :) And you looked BIG and HEAVY. But then again that should be no surprise to me since I hear that you are feeding like you are getting ready to be a sumo wrestler!
Once I got off all my 47 layers of clothes(it's a midwest thing), I picked you up and almost instantaneously felt the difference. You seemed about as heavy, if not heavier, than a sack of potatoes. And I'm not talking about those small little red ones. I'm talking about those big ones. The ones look like dinosaur eggs.
There was a point where you were getting sleepy and I sat in the rocking chair to rock you to sleep. It wasn't working so I tried holding you out flat in both arms(Grandma Lopez says you like that). Well, this was worked for a little while until...my arms starting hurting. Then my back. If you are going to continue with your feeding frenzy, I think you and might have to have a talk about sleeping positions very soon.
No matter what I had a blast just being back with you. We had "tummy" time. I read one page of Humpty Dumpty to you(I would have read more but you weren't having it). I watched Dr. Oz while you slept. All this beats those sleepless graduate school nights. But I'm almost done. June is right around the corner.
I hear you stirring so before you wake up I want to post the most recent picture I have of you.
Is this a smile or what?
From what I hear you have been smiling a lot lately. And laughing.
I can't wait to hear you laugh.
Take care.
Love
Dad.
