A quick update and photo fun, as Angus is finally down for a nap. Ok, I should clarify that, last night, he only woke up once, so I actually got some decent sleep, for which I am extremely grateful. And he did nothing but sleep, observe the outside world, and make the occasional chipmunk-type chirp when I took him for an hour-long walk this morning. So, all-in-all, a pretty good kid. But he's also a hungry little dude, as well as a pooping-machine (and I do realize none of this is remotely unique to him, but I'm a first-time mom, so what do you expect?), so nap-times will probably become less and less frequent.
Grandma went home to Kansas last night after staying on to help me out for a while. Her assistance was GREATLY appreciated. For example, with Grandma watching Angus, I've been able to shower every day since leaving the hospital (I even managed to today, on my own), which I
hear is somewhat of a rarity when living with a newborn. I'm sure she's happy to have a little down time before the other two grandkids descend on Kansas in early September :), but for what it's worth, her help was invaluable.
So now I'm on my own, as Christopher also went back to work yesterday. At the moment, I seem to be maintaining my sanity, but stay tuned. Depending on the future content and tone of these posts, emergency deliveries of espresso and/or Sonic cheesy tots may be required.

| Again, nothing special about my baby except that, well, he's MY baby. So, to me, his "I'm hungry" faces are the funniest things in the world. |

| Slightly less comical, but one of many Angus faces. |
