So today we did a lot of the usual: eat, play sleep! I had another chiropractic appointment, then we hung out a a friends house, before heading home. Daddy fed Owen his cereal and before we knew it it was time for bed.
I know not very exciting, but it was a fun day!

Wednesday: day three in our week
Ok so today is going to be long.
8:30 am: Chris has already left for work and I wake up and hear soft little baby noises in the nursery. I go in to find Owen perpendicular in his crib...that boy is ready to start moving. We get up, nurse, eat cereal and play. I took a shower.
9:30 am: Owen is playing in his crib, I have to go move him so that his head isn't pressed against the crib. He finally drifts off to sleep.
10:15 am: I am feeling guilty because I have planned so much and this morning had to add a chiropractic appointment for my back to our already over planned day. Yesterday at the fabric store I borrowed a baby ergo carrier. I carried Owen around for less than 30 minutes and felt great. Well, last night as I leaned over I felt that familiar twinge. I was hoping that some sleep would help...but nope, it was there this morning. I am not going to let it get bad like last time so my butt is off to the doctor.
10:30 am: Chiropractic appointment-fed Owen in private room.
11:45 am: Quickly changed Owen's diaper then headed to meet Sara for lunch
12:15 pm: Picked up Sara and headed to lunch
1:45 pm: Fabric store doesn't open till 2 :( Owen gets another diaper change and eats (a little early)
2:00 pm: Head into fabric store with Owen in a borrowed Ergo carrier.
2:45 pm: Leave store after almost being over charged but with a cool blue fabulous fabric!
3:00 pm: head into eye dr apointment where Owen wakes up and isn't his best, but then he has missed 2 naps. Everyone is so sweet and comment on his cheeks!
3:45 pm: head home, Owen cries himself to sleep.
4:35 pm: arrive at home and Owen wakes up, so he nurses eats some cereal and takes a bath!
6:00 pm: Owen heads to bed, we eat a frozen dinner and a salad and start watching the movie Due Date. Found out our friends had a baby boy!! Welcome to the world CJ!
8:00 pm: I eat some fresh backed cookies and Daddy eats some ice cream! YUM!
10:30 pm: Owen gets his dreamfeed and then everyone is off to bed.
Big news in our house:

Tuesday: day two in our week
7:30 am: Chris' alarm goes off, he gets up and gets ready for work
8:15 am: Chris kisses me goodbye while I am still half asleep, Owen is awake and quiet in his crib
8:50 am: I wake up look for my cell phone realize I left it in the living room, put on my glasses and look at Chris' clock. I throw on some clothes and head to Owen's room. He is laying there awake and greets me with a smile. I changed his diaper and got him dressed for the day; Owen nurses and then we both eat our cereal. Since we still haven't had that poopy yet, Owen gets a little white grape juice and water. Oh the funny frowns he made at me....I don't think he likes juice yet. Then Owen plays on his playmat while I hung the cloth diapers on the clothes line outside and checked my email. Owen begins to make sleepy noises so I get down on the floor and play with him for a few minutes before his nap.
11:15 pm: Owen woke up and is talking in his crib. I had to go in there and move him back to where I put him, he is a little wiggle worm in that woombie. (I am stressing about when and what will happen if I wean him from the woombie....oh Lord what will it be like when we are weaning from nursing!)
12:00 pm: Owen is up and ready to nurse again, then we head out to meet some friends to look at fabric and eat lunch. We then ran and did two deposits in the banks and headed over to our friend Caroline's house just in time for Owen to catch the second half of his nap.
2:45 pm: Owen went for a nap in Grant's crib and sleeps for whopping hour and 45 minutes!
4:30 pm: Owen is up and ready to eat and play.
6:00 pm: We head home, grabbing dinner for mommy on the way.
6:30 pm: Owen goes down for a nap in his crib.
8:00 pm: Owen is up for a quick bit to eat and back to bed.
9:15 pm: Chris gets home we watch a little TV and catchup on our days. He had his electrical contractor meeting.
11:00 pm: Off to bed, night yall!

Monday: day one in our week
So, I read along with someone as they documented their week and I thought it was so interesting and I will be happy to look back one day on how Owen and I spent our time together!
7:30 am: Chris' alarm goes off, he gets up and gets ready for work
8:15 am: Chris kisses me goodbye while I am still half asleep, Owen is cooing in his crib
9:00am: I wake up for good and go to check on Owen, he is awake laying in his bed all peaceful and I leaned over the crib and said good morning and I was greated with a gummy grin. I changed his diaper and got him dressed for the day. We walked into the living room where I checked emails and Owen nursed. Then we ate our cereal in the sunroom together. I mixed his oatmeal with breastmilk for the first time and he didn't like it. After our breakfasts Owen played on his playmat reaching for the bee and the carrots till naptime.
10: 00 am right as I was picking him up our guest arrived. My big sis from college, Elysha, who came to visit us was here. Unfortunately, Owen had to go night night and took a wonderful nap while we caught up on each others lives.
12 pm: Owen was up, he ate and then got some snuggles with Elysha!
Owen showed Elysha all his good moves including standing, jumping, almost rolling over, some gummy grins and lots of drool. I think he accomplished his goal of wining her over with cuteness.
1:30 pm: Before we knew it, it was time for another nap! Poor baby must have been exhausted from some missed naps the day before.
2:15 pm: Elysha had to leave....we miss her already!
3:00 pm: Owen was cooing and ready to eat again; this is when we took the wonderful pictures above. Owen had some more jumping time and watched a little TV with mommy. Then it was nap time again. I surfed the web, texted with some girlfriends and then got dinner started.
6:00 pm: like clockwork Owen as up again. He had his milk and then some cereal and some white grape juice (we haven't had a poopy today). Just after I put Owen in his jumperoo, Daddy got home from work!
6:45 pm: Owen had a HUGE yawn and was so tired looking, I put him in his crib. Daddy and Mommy got to eat dinner and watch a little TV.
7:45 pm: Mommy went to the YMCA to swim in the pool, she has lost 15 pounds of baby weight and still has over 20 to go.
8:15 pm: Owen woke up and played with Daddy till Mommy got home
9:00 pm: Mommy fed Owen and then put to bed
11:00 pm: Mommy and Daddy went to bed.
Night!
