Month 1

Ric deserves an award for the week he stayed home with us. I still hadn't changed a diaper! He ran every errand, even at midnight! I dreaded the thought of him returning back to work because he's been so invaluable to us, but I guess one of us has to work to pay the bills, right? Good thing Mama Orca came to stay with us for 2 weeks : )

The little man eats a lot and prefers to be swaddled while sleeping. Mr.Quincy avoids Mateo at all costs and even seemed a bit depressed at times. At least he doesn't bark at him, on the contrary, he gets up and leaves the room.

Here you can see his "crispy pata" (tagalog for "fried feet")which was due to the lack of amniotic fluid for the last 3 weeks in the womb.

Other than that, Mateo is your run-of-the-mill baby: eat, sleep, poop (repeat, several times in 24 hours)
