B was so tired after that day of socializing. he fell asleep on the way home. we almost had a successful carseat to crib transfer, but he woke up right when we set him in the crib. which was fine with me. i was secretly hoping he would wake up. since i hadn't changed his diaper the whole time we were gone. and i think it's more logical to feed him right before bed so he doesn't wake up in the middle of the night starving.
first night of uninterrupted in SO long. thank you Mr. B!! that felt good. to actually sleep. it's a weird feeling waking up at 6:30am with no interruptions. you kind of wake up in a peaceful/franticness. i say peaceful because you're so rested from a full nights sleep, but frantic because a part of you thinks you didn't hear the baby crying all night. what happened? omg, is he okay?? but of course, he way fine. so fine. just sleeping. i especially worried because i was on monitor/baby duty last night, since papa had to wake up at 3:30am for work in the bay. i thanked B all morning. kissing his head and saying 'thank you for letting mama sleep. thank you. i love you.why can't you be like that every night '
UPDATE on the BABES:
food: latest kick has been pears and peas. the peas are so gross, i almost don't want to make him eat them. but he loves them. one more day of peas then we can try something new. i'm thinking whatever has the most fiber in them.
bowel movements: not happening. this is day 5. i just keep telling him it will happen. and we do the poo dance like five times a day. which consists of me bouncing him around and singing 'we're gunna poo today. poo. poo. poo.' repeat like twenty times. it's a really cool song.
development: still doesn't sit. nothing new so far. getting really really good at standing up with the help of the crib railing. the couch. the clothes basket. or me. has the biggest laugh EVER. its makes me crack up!
sleep: as i said last night was the first night, in a long time, B's slept through the whole night. i dunno, maybe his tooth isn't hurting as much. his first nap today was 1.5 hours. his afternoon so far has been an hour. still snoozing away though...
our day: we had a nice stroll through the neighborhood today. sunny but cold. went to wells fargo to pay the cc bill. walked up the butt buster hill over to Lucy's house. we played and hung out there for a while. came home, ate some peas, and had a little visit from Memaw. then we will go to the grocery store when he wakes up.
papa won't be home til late tonight, so i will bathe b alone. it's hard to alone still because he won't sit yet. haha. but he loves his baths. loves to kick his legs so the water splashes. he loves to hold on to his shark bath toy. he loves when i fill the bath toy with water and squirt him in the mouth. he loves to try to drink the water when i'm rinsing off his head. he loves water. he obviously doesn't get this from me. maybe because he's a cancer; water sign. but then i'm a scorpio, which is a water sign too. apparently having a water sign has nothing to do with actually enjoying being in water or not.
I love your blog!! I love that it's in your voice and I can totally hear you saying it all. And the poo dance! Totally get it. Hahahahah love to you and b! And Jon!
