Day 3





Well today's actually day 4. But this post is about yesterday. But what do days and nights really mean anyway...they blur together. It seems like weeks. Yesterday Milo had a big day. James and Sarah came over and Milo met Dexter, who passed along some breastfeeding tips--good to get some advice from a big guy.


Then we went to the pediatrician -- our first trip into the outside world. He's got a clean bill of health besides a little jaundice. So we let him nap by the window to catch some rays, which should help with this.

In the evening Milo was glued to the TV watching the election returns. Well, actually he slept. But he did have is eyes open long enough for us to capture calm alertness on camera. Now that the color barrier to the presidency has been broken, Milo has his sights on breaking the age barrier. Perhaps he could be America's first "child president" in four years? Ok, maybe eight.

Milo is so sweet. And Teo (Dex) voted, that's a big one for a three month young baby.
Thank you very much for sharing.

I hope Milo enjoyed his first outing in the 'hood today. I think he's beginning to look a little like the Gallant side of the family
