Newborn-dom

My newborn is beautiful, precious, and delightful. But if it weren't for sleeping, eating, and making yucky diapers, he'd do nothing at all.

Take this morning, for example: He was changed and fed, but wide awake. I burped him and sat him on a blanket on the floor where he could see everything. He got bored... or uncomfortable. So I moved him to his bouncer. There, he got bored... or uncomfortable. So I repeated the events that started the whole process: changed his diaper (although it wasn't really wet), tried to feed him (not hungry), tried to burp him (went from fussing to crying), so he ended up back on the blanket where he laid quietly... for about two minutes.

Sigh. Newborn-dom is one part sacred, one part psycho. No, wait, maybe that's just new-Mom-dom. :)
