Angela raises a fine point in the comments–indeed, what about Rona’s baby pic?
I respectfully retract any previous implication, intentional or perceived, that Zoey only looks like me. I now submit that either she looks like both of us, or all babies look the same to me:

Just a quick comparison study before I take Murphee out to Golden Gardens this morning. I’m pretty sure I’m the one on the right:

Sorry for the break in updates–one missed day led to another, and now here we are. Things have been great in Zoeyland. Ever since Doctor Faith worked her CST mojo on Zoey on Tuesday, feedings have been long and frequent, and outflow activity has increased proportionately. Her crying has reduced in inverse proportion to her [...]

Last night after I posted, of course Zoey got cranky. We called the Seattle La Leche League leader, who said that everything sounded normal and that we shouldn’t be worried.

Things are going pretty well today. Zoey’s currently sleeping in her amazing Graco stroller from Grandma Evelyn and Grandpa Earl. The back folds flat, and with a blankie rolled up on either side of her, even our Super-Strength-wielding Zoey can’t break free of this high-tech mobile bassinet. Yay!
Since I started writing that Little Z woke [...]

And I don’t mean “full of kibble.” She finally yarped several times in displeasure tonight after listening to Zoey screaming

for half an hour, and then ran in and flopped down on the bed in the other room. We’ve been trying to give her lots of attention, but it gets hard sometimes (like when the [...]

Zoey’s been showing off her fussy side the past couple days, as her gastro-intestinal tract comes to life to process first colostrum and increasingly milk. She’s actually been really great this evening, sleeping on my lap in a baby sling while I worked, up until getting her PKU test heel poke. She calmed down from [...]

Here’s Zoey with Grandma Arlene, wearing a lovely new hat (Zoey’s the one with the hat, that is):

Here’s Sleepy Pete / Little Z / The Zster / The Zmeister Z-ing away on Grandpa Earl’s lap:
