He Started Out Quietly Enough

He was such a quiet baby ..

The other Parental Unit had to avail herself of the facilities so I was admonished to mind the boy. He was sleeping, as newborns are wont to do, so I figured I ought to get a picture.

With the benefit of hindsight, I should have realized this was the calm before the storm. This one child out of the entire pack is responsible (usually directly, but often indirectly) for about 80% of the noise generated overall. If you’ve spent any amount of time around the Mighty M Five, you know it can get pretty noisy indeed.
