Vuelve

So one week it's bluegrass, the next week it's Ricky Martin. I've played the song Vuelve off Ricky's La Historia album about three times in a row, and Elena is finally asleep. If only we knew what the lyrics actually meant (Ricky sings in Spanish). Or maybe it's better that we don't know?

Day 3 of life without Mom has started pretty well. But I figured that Elena would have to sleep sometime, right? Day 2 didn't go so well. Elena took one 2-hour nap the entire day. Yes, the entire day. From morning until 10:10pm when Nate came home from his business dinner, she took one nap. And she was grumpy most of the day. I kept holding her in different positions, and finally would give up and just feed her... hourly... oh... the fun... of breastfeeding... every... hour.

But, she slept well last night and has just gone down for what hopefully will be a decent afternoon nap. She's been cute and playful all morning, despite vomiting all over and then pooping onto her brand new outfit. Sorry Mom, no pictures of Elena in her little outfit from Baby Walz. It was quickly destroyed!

Mom has informed me that I was a Queen Puker myself. So it's starting. That old story where they tell you that everything bad you've ever done will come back to get you through your kids. My girl is a puker. Let's just hope she stays away from Miller Light.
