Party in my crib!

Life as I know it:
Ryan is definitely a night owl, just like his mom and dad. While in the womb, he often kicked and moved around from 11 PM - 1 AM and now that he's in the world, he's continuing this trend. Some days, he does actually sleep during the wee hours, but other nights, it's party time. He's 3 weeks old now, and at the 2 week appointment, he weighed in at 9 lbs 5 oz. He's around 55-60 percentile for length, weight, head size (for non-parents out there, that means he's average size) but he definitely has some leg strength as he almost launched himself off of the doctor's lap and regularly makes the attempt to do so when he has his meltdowns (which, thankfully, aren't too frequent). Favorite things: punching his bird toy, being held, car, front carrier, and stroller rides, people singing to him. Things he dislikes: blood tests (who could blame him), getting a surprise splash of water during a bath, gas, mom and dad not understanding him.

WHAT A CUTIE! His eyes are so bright and vibrant! I'm glad he likes his onesie, but am sorry for you two that the slogan's become reality....
