Settling in at Home

Everything is going great so far at home. Xander has been pretty content, reserving his best screams for when he's hungry or when he has his diaper changed. His sleep schedule is a little erratic, but Anjee and I have been trading off sleep when we can. It's a little tough when Anjee is the only one that can feed him right now and that's all he wants to do. 

Dite has now met him and is doing fine. She's a little freaked out still and just doesn't know what to do with herself when Xander's crying, but overall she seems to be taking to him okay. We also had his first check up with Dr. Pagel and he's perfectly healthy. 

Some fun things about him:

- He has hairy ears. 

- When he's hungry, he tries nursing whatever is in front of him, including my nose today. 

- When he's about to nurse, he furrows his brow, opens his mouth, and shakes his head around looking for a boob. We call this "shark face".

We looked up the meaning of his name today and it means "defender of men".  I like the sound of that.
