After many hours of labour I came into this world, which is more difficult and harsher compared to the time when my parents were born. At least, this is what my daddy says.

The birth has been very exhausting for my mummy and myself, even daddy was very pale.

After a recreative night the world looked moch better:

And so much action makes me thirsty ...

Unfortunately I suffer from newborn jaundice - and so I am tired most of the day. My partnes hope that I recover from that within the next couple of days (2.11.04).

Coming home

Ok, Saturday, November 6th it happened - I come to my new home.

The first days at home have been very stressful - for all concerned people. For me it is a new setup, for mummy and daddy there is a third person around which needs their full attention and devotion.

The first days at home are exhausting - some kind of routine will only kick in within the next couple of weeks.

And if there is nothing to drink soon, I get very noisy:

... and afterwards, well, I just want to have some privacy:

And daddy is of course very proud of me.

Especially impressing is the fact, that daddy has huge fingers (here for comparison with daddy's small finger):

The destiny of everyone who is born in late autumn: I am getting prepared for the first excursion - the weather is lousy (10.11.04):

and mummy pushes me, the little price, around the neighborhood

Mama und Papa sagen daß ich am süssesten bin, wenn ich am Tag wach bin. Aber eigentlich bin ich doch so zwischen ein und zwei Uhr nachts wach - dann trägt mich Papa gerne mal durchs Haus. Warum er dabei so oft gähnt, weiß ich auch nicht...

Das ist meine Mama - die liebste Mama von der ganzen Welt!!!

... sagt auch der Papa.

Latterly babies like me are being bathed in a sort of weired bucket - one says, once inside, it feels very similar to mama's womb - warm, liquid all around, no gravity so that one can keenly pedal in the water.

Whilst doing so one's head is held strangely which leads to a peculiar face - well what the heck, it was great! 

And afterwards I have s short nap until the next meal.

I was weighted at my first "month birthday" and weigh now 4,100 gramm - wow, my mom is very proud!
