Eat, Sleep, Poop, and "Pee" Merry

Today, Lauren is 10 days old and currently passes her time in series of perpetual 3-hour lives. She eats, sleeps, poops, and pees every 3-hours. Our favorite is when she needs to be awakened for her feeding. She always gives quite a production when coming out of her deep slumber (mind the karate kicks - you can't get too close)...


When trying to monitor Lauren's sleeping along side the feeding, pooping, and peeing, we have to record it in our "Tot Jot" to keep it all straight - click on the image below to check out the meticulously kept data. (Thanks, Sueann, for the book!)...



(I scanned the page from yesterday's log - the pee, butt cream, and poop stains that are on the page didn't quite show up on it but trust me, they're there). I often look back on a completed sheet and am left bewildered as to how much attention this one little being commands.

Nevertheless, her arrival has enlightened our home and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Who would've thought bodily functions were so endearing?

Answers to some FAQs so far:

- The color of Lauren's eyes are blue and her hair brown
- She has 10 fingers and 10 toes
- She's very mild-mannered and silently torments us with her cuteness
- Lorraine and Lauren are perfect together...
