Listen folks, I may only be one day old, and I may not even have a name yet, but I have some serious opinions about life.
What’s hot: Breastfeeding. I could do it all day. Oh, wait – I do it all day. Can’t get enough. I’m pretty awesome at it if I do say so myself.
What’s not: Getting my diaper changed. I hate that so bad. Leave me alone, parentals and nurses – I’m content to sit and marinate in meconium.
Hot: Fuzzy fleece blankets. Swaddle me as tightly as you wish, I love those things.
Not: Scratchy hospital-issue blankets. Come on, other (no doubt inferior) babies have probably peed on those. Sheesh.
Not: That stupid transparent hospital crib you roll me around in. Seriously, you call that a mattress? Sure, a mattress fit for rodents. Just try sticking me in one of those – I’ll have you wishing you were deaf in a matter of seconds.
Hot: Mommy’s chest, Daddy’s chest, or snuggled next to Mommy on her hospital bed. With a fuzzy fleece blanket.
Hot: Having my back or bum patted. Totally relaxes me.
Not: Mommy singing. Just… just… just STOP, Mom. Nice try, though.
Hot: Soft chubby baby cheeks. You know you’re dying to kiss them.

Look at that cute little baby you made! I love looking at pictures and I must admit... you are making me slightly baby hungry! Congrats on your new little girl!
Hot: Cutest new baby niece ever!
Not: That I'm thousand of miles away from her!
Ditto, Jill, since I'm not nearly clever enough to come up with that! :) She is beautiful, Laura!
Cute post. Cute baby.
A day old and she's already funnier than most babies I know.
Laura I gotta say you make pretty darn good-looking babies. What a talent you are.
Those are cute cheeks!
Ha ha ha! This post totally cracks me up! Those hospital cribs really are like rodent cages! :)
Congratulations! She is so beautiful! And I'm really glad you didn't die in childbirth. I'm pretty sure I contemplate that every time I have a baby, too ;)
I love reading childbirth stories! Thanks for sharing yours (in the previous post).
Hot: baby counters on your blog while you're pregnant
Not: ...actually, I'm still enjoying the counter because it reminds me how lucky you were to deliver that cute little stinker before your due date.
There's nothing like an innocent, sweet, beautiful little princess to liven up your lives. Enjoy every minute.
