Max's horoscope today says:

So what if you're a little fussy? It's to be expected as you cultivate a personal style, a work in progress that's soon to be spectacular.

A little fussy indeed. For the last three days, if he is not asleep, he is fussing, eating or pooping - sometimes all at once. I thought by nearly 2 months, he would be settling into a groove - or at least allowing us to settle into a groove. I suppose technically he is into a groove, it's just turned out to be more of a rut. I think this is just all a product of a 6.5 week growth spurt that will soon leave me wondering who replaced my cuddle bug of an infant with a child well on his way to toddler.

I don't think I'd be cut out to be a stay at home mom. Don't get me wrong, it's really nice to be needed, and to be "The Mom" who will always be the one to "make it all better", but woo, what responsibility. I feel torn between wanting Max to wake up so we can interact (and so he'll hopefully sleep well tonight), and wanting him to fall asleep so I can get a break and take a shower or a nap, or just tick something off of the to-do list I've got working. Unfortunately when I do get that small break, I feel too lazy to do anything worthwhile.
