Today

6 a.m. – Baby wakeup call (who needs an alarm clock, anyway? Just have a baby and you’ll never sleep through your “alarm” again)

6:45 a.m. – Parked Gabriel in the stroller and decided to pull weeds from my front flower bed.

7:00-7:45 a.m. – Took a stroll around the neighborhood in our pajamas, checked the mail

8:00 a.m. – Green beans for breakfast. Maybe it will make him well-rounded.

8:15 a.m. – Bottle

8:30 a.m. – Put Baby G down for a nap

8:30-9 a.m. – Got rebellious and took a nap too

9:00 a.m. – Cleaned the kitchen, made the bed, put together MDO diaper bag and food, started working

10:00 a.m. – Took a shower

10:15 a.m. – Done-with-nap-alarm rang. Got baby up, dressed him, changed diaper, roll around on the floor and had a tickle fight, dropped off at MDO.

10:50 a.m. – Got home and started working again.

Noon – Stopped for lunch

12:15 p.m. – Started working again

1:45 p.m. – Leave to pick up Gabriel from MDO

And that’s just until now. I feel like the day is just beginning…
