things are going very well here. rex continues to be a bit of a nightowl, and he's generally interested only in going to sleep after mid-night feedings if he's nestled on me (vs in his co-sleeper or crib). however, he's generally a darn mellow baby, only feeding every 3 hours or so (and since the dr says we need to feed him at least every 3 hours, we're counting our blessings it's not more often), and he is generally comforted pretty easily by any of us (me, steve or grandma hall).
it turns out that he's already found his calling, as a model. a local photographer offered to take some free photos of rex (she also took some maternity shots of me, less than a week before giving birth) and is giving me a discount on prints (since she'll be using the photos promotionally as well. if you'd like to check the photos out -- which you should, since he's darn cute -- go here and then click on 'client proofing' and enter the password "mrrex" (no quotes). let me know which ones you think i should order!
