4 weeks ago the world changed forever...the amazing GDawg was pulled from momdawg's uterus and arrived in the world. In some ways the days have flown by and I can't believe I'm already one month old, 1/12 of a year. Had I arrived on my due date, July 21st, I would only be two weeks old now. But from the start I had to break the rules and do things the hard way. Mom just doesn't know that this is only a glimpse of the next 18+ years...Ha ha ha ha! I've graduated from preemie clothes and diapers, and at a whopping 7.8 pounds at the last doctor's visit this week. Mom is trying to switch me to formula, and though I do ok with the bottle (artificial nipple) I have been having a few problems with growlers (pooping). Seems formula backs GDawg up a little bit and we are trying new tactics to fight this (warm water, sugar water or Karo syrup in the formula, sitting in the squatting position, etc). I'm still running the house, and love the late night/early morning. Momdawg has found that when changing my diaper (I fill it to the brim with pee after over 4 ounces per bottle feeding!) drying my unmentionables with a hairdryer is GDawg's favorite. I stop mid cry and love the warm air and whirring noise of the dryer. Ha! I'm keeping them guessing everyday. Love to you all. -GDawg the Great

Hi GDAWG! Haven't gotten to meet you, but love reading about your Life & Early Times. Glad that you are having so much fun w/ Mommy. Since you love late nights and early mornings,maybe Mommy can find enough energy to bring you by to see your EMS family that works night shift. Glad to see that you are well and growing. I know that you're not doing a whole lot of traveling these days, but hope that you're getting use of the bag I got you. Holla at you later little lady. Shervonne
