My Typical Day

Elijah here. I thought I would tell you about a typical day at my house. I wake up sometime between 7 and 8 and my Mommy feeds me. She seems tired. I'm not sure why. I only woke up every 3 hours. I was sleeping 5-6 for a few days but I just missed my Mommy time so I decided to start waking up a little more frequently. Mommy doesn't mind. I mean, hey, I'm a cutie pie at 2am, right? Back to my day. Mommy decides if I need a bath or not. Today was bath day. I like my bath and smile...except when she brings out that camera. Come on Mom...can't a guy get some privacy?

After my bath my Mommy gives me a massage with some lotion that makes me feel soft and smooth and then dresses me. Then she brushes my hair..oh..that feels good. She usually tells me I'm her handsome little boy. Of course I am.

Now I'm ready for the day. Now I get to play in my bouncer while Mommy gets ready. I like it okay but a guy only wants to sit for so long. Come on Mom, I want to play! I'm pretty insistent so she reads me a book or plays with some of my toys. Sometimes I go in my swing for awhile so she can eat. Then we get to do some stuff around the house and check up on those crazy kitties of mine. We found Macy in a plastic bag today.

I'm a growing boy so by this time I'm getting hungry. Mommy feeds me again and then I get pretty sleepy. I usually go to sleep in my snugli. I like to be close to Mommy. What can I say? I'm a cuddle bug like my Daddy. Today she put me in my Moses basket because she had some sewing to do. What? Sewing? How can that be more important than holding moi? I had to protest a little to let her know I wasn't very happy with my sleeping arrangements. That took a lot of energy though so I guess I ended up falling asleep.


I'm starting to wake up a little. I'm gonna be hungry again Mommy so you better be ready! No more computer time! Then maybe we can play again before you have to make dinner. Then Daddy gets home! YEAH! Daddy's funny. I like to smile and laugh for him. I smile more for him than I do Mommy. I cuddle more with Mommy so it's only fair I play and smile more for Daddy, right?

Were these & the last pictures really 3 days apart. He looks like he's grown some already...I'm sure he has but wow. He's looking like his own little person now & not just a newborn. So sweet. We need to do lunch or a picnic or something. Haven't seen you in ages & can't wait to start carpooling again! Not just for gas.
