Badge of honor

Woken up again -- around 1am this morning; and again at 2:30am, for the baby to vomit. You know you're a dad when you can say you've caught vomit with your bare hand.

The bub cried and cried after throwing up -- poor kid. But after a few minutes she was happy again.

A bit tired today -- but I wear my tiredness as a badge of honour. :)

Yes, you are truly a dad! Having done that myself I empathise--very nasty experience for both parties. My favorite story concerns blue ice cream issuing forth from the nose of a child--we avoid blue ice cream at all costs now! Sure hope the Bub feels better soon!

Heh! :)

Well, again -- it's like owning a dog, only moreso. The companionship and the interacting are the good parts. Poop, vomit, and regular feeding are the not-so-good parts.
