Mom's prayers were answered when she woke up this morning to find out she has a day off of school! The timing is perfect because due to all of our celebrating over the weekend, I didn't get my normal weekend "chores" done, such as LAUNDRY! My, how it piles up around here! So, mom and E are hanging out . . . .
What does a day off with a 1 year old consist of?
1.) A Bottle of MILK (No more formula - yay!) at 6 am and then back to bed
2.) Breakfast - we both had a bowl of oatmeal and fruit - Ethan worked on feeding himself with a spoon. This skill is coming along nicely!
3.) Ethan goes to the stereo to turn on his music, which he LOVES. "Hello, everybody, so glad to see you!" are the lyrics we hear many times a day.
4.) Ethan loves to sit at his basket of books and take out each one and page through it. Mama quickly narrates what is happening in the pictures. The duckling and sheep books are still favorites.
5.) Mama says, "time for night-night" and Ethan crawls excitedly to the stairs. I let him crawl up himself after moving the barricade in front of them. He LOVES this. He LOVES night-night time. It is very funny. He is in his crib sleeping by 9:30 and mom is in bed sleeping by 9:31.
6.) We wake up at 11:30 - mom showers while Ethan jabbers in his crib. We come downstairs and mom works on the blog with Ethan underfoot trying to get into everything.
And the rest of the day will be about the same - I'm sure we will play a rousing game of "I'm gonna get you!" and mama will build towers with blocks for Ethan to knock down and giggle. . . . I Love it!
