Baby Jace - The Crying Machine!!!

So I decided to test Jace's lungs out last week-end. He was crying like crazy and nothing seemed to satisfy him - not even photos of Miss March's Mammary System! -"Don't Tell Jen"

We went up to the nursery and I laid him in his crib to cry himself to sleep. This was also to give momma Jen a rest as well. I turned on the music and sat in the room by his crib as I waited for the "god of sleep" to descend upon my little boy and quietly carry him away to lalla land! Every 5-10 minutes I would pick him up and try to calm him down before laying him back in his crib.

Yea right, 2 hours later his vocal chords were only getting stronger and I began wondering if Jace was actually auditioning to be the next lead singer for AC/DC? I did notice three hairs in the carpet which had fallen out of my head leaving me now with only four!

The "God of Sleep" never did arrive mostly because Jace was so loud that I am sure it scrambled his navigation equipment. I did hear of a wreck on highway 95 in which somebody fell asleep at the wheel, please don't tell anybody about Jace as Jen and I don't want to be sued!

Jace won the battle! At the end of his vocal session we did have to replace three windows in his room as he is the first male to ever hit the high "C"! As if a switch had been flipped he immediately stopped crying for no reason and was happy? My Sybil theory is back in play!

All in all it was a pretty interesting day - I never thought 10 lbs of screaming baby could take me to the mat? I was wrong!

Just having a little fun - Jace is awesome and I am a very proud papa!!
