Oh my gosh, you made me go through all the emotions you must have been going through in warp speed. I laughed, said "Oh no!" several times, and died of the cute at the end. I'm loving these baby posts--keep it up!

I'm about to cry I am laughing so hard. I love you so much. Sorry I haven't called lately. I will try to soon. I hope the feeding is going better than it sounds, although it sure perked up my day. It amazes me that you can still crack me up even when you are half asleep and probably zombie-like. Love you.
