6:15 - you woke up & your daddy scooped you out of that bassinet as soon as one eyelid barely peeled open. You know what that means? He got the first smile :) Although he was nice and turned you around so I could get one shortly after his. He took you to change your diaper just like he does every morning he can.
After we talked and laughed a few minutes you nursed. It's really not the same now since you are mr easily distracted and daddy was getting ready. But I will take whatever I can get. Oh and you also really, really like to pull my hair. I really, really love you but the hair pulling, not at all.
Once you finished nursing you played on the bed with your toys, sitting up like a big boy. I also had you with me a bit so you could jump around and so I could get more of those smiles and giggles. Mornings when I don't have to work are my favorite. No rushing, just enjoying our time together. Once Daddy was done brushing his teeth(you think that's the best thing ever to watch) he came over and turned his music on so we had a little dance party where you rocked back and forth. Gah, you are so cute. After the dance party daddy left and you cuddled up with me and we napped. I woke up around 9ish and you are still asleep as I type and it's 10:33, which means you have been asleep probably a little over 2 hours. Your hair is all sticky from being asleep on my chest and moving back and forth between my arm. Right now you are bear hugging me with your face down as I listen to you breath and watch your sweet lips all puckered up. Oh I adore this time!
Back again...it's 1:30 and you are asleep again so I am taking advantage of the time to write. When you woke up earlier around 11:30 you picked your head up, looked right at me, and grinned. I love your fresh faced smile after a nap and how you still like to snuggle for a bit before waking up. You ate and then we played in the floor of the living room while I talked to Nonna (on speaker so you could hear her voice). After that we went into your bedroom so I could finish cleaning out your closet to switch your clothes from 6mo to 9mo. Yup, it's about that time. While I cleaned out your shorts and jam jams and put the new ones in you played in your Johnny jumper You have quite the moves in that thing! When I was finished we read one of my favorite books from your Aunt Stephanie "on the night you were born" that she gave you the night after you were born. You love reading books now - you grab the ends, help me turn the pages, and rock back and forth while I read - and it makes my heart happy. While we were reading there was some eye rubbing going on so we only got one book read and then it was nap time. You fell asleep like a champ (maybe your nonstop jumping for a good 15 minutes had something to do with it) and here we are. I will catch up again later to see what the rest of the day looks like.
The rest of the day was pretty relaxed. You woke up around 2 and ate then played on the floor with your toys and in the exersaucer. Around 4 you and I decided to take a little nap on the couch while it rained outside - so sweet. You cuddled up in your normal spot so my chin could rest on the top of your head. I know for a fact one day I am going to miss those naps so I will take advantage of them while I still can. Once we woke up you ate again and then daddy came home. Your face lights up when you see him. I love it!
