our little poopsickle

well, what to say. i'm tired. and happy. and tired. but i can't complain - karen is healing from giving birth plus tired plus breastfeeding. i think women got the short end of the stick on this one.

karen loves being a mom. i don't think i've ever seen her so happy. i love it.

what a stud. except this picture makes his head look funny. i love the eyes. it looks like he's communicating some sort of thought, but in reality he's just pooping. his many poop faces are hilarious.

ahhh, genetics. what a fine specimen.

How CUUUUTE!! That last picture made me laugh out loud...from the pit of my gut:) He is a cute one! Hope Karen is healing well!

So great! It's funny, when Morgan and I were watching the video you made for us all, at the "pooping faces", we both said, "What a little stud; he already knows how to give the look!" :-) Turns out they're pooping faces. Ha!
The top one looks like you're attempting to bond the maternal way. Sorry to break it to you, brother. You can't breastfeed, no matter how hard you try. It just won't work. :-)
We can't WAIT to see you next week and snuggle the little munchkin. He is such a darling and I must say I am quite proud of what a fine specimen has come from the Shillington name. Of course, you chose someone to breed well with-being your beautiful wife, and I'm sure the Fergusons are just as proud. I'm so happy for both of you! Parenthood-what bliss! We can't wait!
Love you.

It's incredible how expressive Gabe is at such a young age. I know people say babies can't express true emotions, but I don't believe it. He may be pooping while making those faces, but who's to say he isn't multi-tasking and communicated his thoughts simultaneously? :D

Eat. Sleep. Poop. That's a kid's life, so Mark told me once. I'm glad Gabriel is growing so well into your lives. I love you, B.

I responded to your comment...alas...you still do not post. Maybe you should dye your hair an ugly red then fix it so you have a story to tell.
