New Dad

Staring.

Lots of staring.

Walking in circles to soothe you.

Startled wake-ups in the night to check to make sure you are breathing.

Helping Mommy.

A LOT! ...

Cooking meals,

Cleaning house,

Trips to Target and Babies R' Us with coupons and specific instructions in hand.

Driving home from the hospital....

And to the prediatricians...

Driving slooooooooowly with hands at 10 and 2.

Diapering.

And again.

And again.

Putting up with mommy's fits of snappiness. 

Regretting saying things like "I'm exhausted" in front of mommy.

Loving.

Lots of loving.

Patience.

Kindness.

Warmth.

Rocking.

Swaddling.

Falling asleep with his sweet baby girl in his arms.
