Last night was another long night. My little one was late to bed, up again all night, and wide awake even earlier. He popped up this morning at 7:15, I don’t even know if I slept 4 hours last night, it is now 7:40, and I’m already exhausted. He is finishing up breakfast, and I’m finishing up my first cup of coffee. At least I’ll have a jump start on my laundry today.

A long day
My little one is finally down for a nap, thank goodness. He was up again, almost on the hour last night, and I am really tired. We played at the park yesterday, and I think maybe his legs were a little sore, he walked everywhere. I am caught up on all my laundry, and we went to the grocery store earlier so I even know what I am making for dinner in advance. I’m ahead of the game today, yahoo for me. I thought I would take a break and watch a movie, and check my e-mail, better hurry before the little one wakes up.
Late night snacker
I am super hungry. Yep, it is getting late, I should be brushing my teeth, and off to sleep, but I think I’m headed to the kitchen for another bowl of cereal. This would be my second one today. I know that if I could only quit my snacking at all hours of the day and night, I could finally lose this baby weight. The only problem is that there are way too many tasty things on this planet, and a few are in my kitchen. Snack today, and tomorrow I’ll exercise, or try too.
102 almost there
Well today I bowled a 102. At least I broke 100. I’m almost to my goal of 150, but not quite there yet. I still need a lot of practice, and maybe my own bowling shoes would help. It was fun, and the little guy had a great time screaming “bowl”. I’m glad that we got out of the house, the weather is so much better, and all of us are back to feeling healthy again.
mommy now
I remember anxiously waiting for my little one to say” mommy”, he has been saying “daddy”since he was about seven months old. Finally almost two months before he turned two he said “mommy”, I was so happy, he finally acknowledges me. After he turned two he learned the phrase “mommy now”. At first I thought it was so cute, his first verbal demand that I could understand, and now it is a bit much. I sneak off to the bathroom , and he is banging down the door screaming “mommy now”. If I am in the kitchen doing dishes, or finishing making dinner, its “mommy now”. And if I ever get the opportunity to go grocery shopping, he is crying as I leave “mommy now”.
I know it is just a stage, and it is pretty cute. And it makes me very happy to hear him say mommy, even if it follows a demand. I’m just glad that he hasn’t discovered the phrase “I want that toy right now”.
