Jah Lil' Upsetta


Intense. Quiet. Alert. Curious. Irritated. Frustrated. Surprised. Insomniac. Warm. Cold. Stubborn. Gassy. Happy. Content.

All words to describe Mateyo's moods over the past month. Cindy and I just came back from his first doctor's visit and all is well. He is now registering an ounce or two under 8 pounds!! Bam! Jenny Craig can't eff with that right there. She said that he is progressing nicely, and he let her know wassup by subsequently peeing on her during the exam. That's my boy!

His "urine sure shot" tally now stands at: 3 nurses, 2 parents, Our bedroom window, 1 pediatrician, and about 100+ diapers.

He's breastfeeding like a champ. Sleeping during the day and catching the holy ghost at night. We also just discovered pacifiers...wow! what an invention. I read that it helps baby learn self-comforting methods, which is kinda like eating an ice cream sundae while watching Ninja Warrior, so I'm all for it.

Also wanted to send our love out to Wendell and Carolina who stopped by this past weekend to chat and pow wow about the birth of their upcoming baby. He/she seems to be in good hands already. Definite props also go out to the bay area folks who we ran into out in Pasadena recently (Dawn, Jesse, Allyson, Val, Mahalaya, Art, Claudine, and Timyas)...it was hella tight seeing y'all.

Anyways, I think Mateyo Kidlat will be resurrecting soon, so stay tuned. Meanwhile, check out my bro's blog for some cool imagery and itinerant musings.
