So what does this day truly symbolize?
It is a good day to be alive, healthy, and happy. I know it was reported on the news lots of Chinese people got married today—something to do with this day symbolizing ” long lasting?” so i guess that’s a good reason to to get married. It is also the 252nd day of the year, more power to the number 9, cloud 9..whatever you want to call it. A little rainy in Kansas City, but no reason to stop any adventures of the day. So how did my day begin today?
I didn’t even hear my husband getting up today. I just woke up beside Julian, whom i never even heard coming in and getting in the bed. He was talking to me, asking for milk ” mama milk, miiiilk, milk pleaaase” I asked him if we could just lay there for a little bit longer he said no and pulled my arm…ts ts ts, aaaah.. i know. welcome to sans sleep land. when Julian wakes up, the whole house has to get up.
I woke up and gave him cereal and milk, then he asked for his vitamin. We snuggled on the couch and watched curious George the monkey.
Eli has gotten better, and i will find out on Friday if that ear infection has completely cleared. He is getting very giggly, i love kissing his chunky belly, he laughs . He watches Julian playing on the floor and he acts like he is reaching down there to play with him. I lay him on his belly today and just watch him do his mini push ups. He is getting stronger by the day. I think he realizes what he has just achieved as he looks at us and just beams. Julian asked to hold him this morning and i just put the boppy around his waist and lay Eli on it. They had a conversation each one getting excited after every sound, it was fun to listen and watch.
Julian still hasn’t asked for his computer back. I wanted to set it back up today and daddy said no to wait till this weekend. ..mmmh.. I may sneak in tonight after my husband is asleep and go set it up for him, lol.. on second thought, maybe i will hold off, i don’t want this to be held that against me.. it is tempting though.
When i get home at night, both boys are usually asleep.. I climb up and snuggle beside Julian rub his feet, and if it is a Friday night i like getting some baby oil and give him a massage while sleeping. I find it better this way than when he is up, as he just doesn’t lay still or long enough for me to do it. He is just too active. Eli usually wakes up and get overly excited seeing me that going back to bed is more of a snooze than asleep. Whoever wrote that 3 month old babies should be able to sleep through the night, mmh, i know they weren’t talking about my kids for sure. Julian didn’t sleep through the night for us till he was 2 yrs old. I know you can train them on a sleep schedule, but it just didn’t work for this mama. We will see if we get it right this time around
Time to go chat with my hubby. Goodnight!
