Go Go Gadget Baby

Yesterday, he was 1 month into this life, and he suddenly started moving!  Wriggling around in a general desired direction and punching the air (and erroneously his own face), with a power unseen before.  While he is most often calmed with the kinetic, he is a very typical newborn.

We are halfway into my two month maternity leave and I must admit I am counting the days. I know I will rue otherwise, but the day-to-day of living with a newborn (and waking with a newborn) takes its toll on your ability to stop and smell the roses.  The schedule they keep is disorienting and making the whole endeavor difficult.
