Thanks to my arrival, Mom is, well, a mom and therefore is a Mother’s Day honoree. I should get some props for making Mom a mom, I think. Grandma Sherry points out that this is the 100th anniversary of Mothers’ Day. I can’t wait for trivia night at the local pub…Oh, and by the way, I turned two months old today!
Thanks to getting to sleep late last night, I slept until 6:00 this morning. Mom offered to get up to feed me, but Dad of course did the honors. Mom got up to pump, though, so we all rang in Mother’s Day half asleep drinking, feeding, or expressing milk. Now there’s a Hallmark Moment for you.
Mom and I went back to sleep while Dad prepped food for dinner and cleaned the apartment. He claims to have some other gift for Mom, but for now, a clean apartment is about all she’s got. I woke up again around 8:30 and Dad gave me a bath. I actually enjoy my baths. I never cry and they’re always relaxing. Dad attempted to use a q-tip (relax, readers, just for my outer ear!), but failed. Mom ended up filling 3 q-tips with gunk from my ears. After eating breakfast, Dad invited Mom (and me!) out to brunch. We first tried to go to Alice’s Tea Cup, but the one hour wait wasn’t really our speed. So we went around the corner to Josie’s, which was surprisingly spacious and kid-friendly. We got a table in the corner where my stroller could be parked out of the way. On the way home, we stopped by Grom for yummy (and expensive!) gelato.
After getting back home, I was kind of fussy all afternoon and evening. I wasn’t really interested in playing too much. I slept a lot, whined a lot, and ate a lot. I didn’t even smile once until about 8:30 when Dad and I played on the activity. I had so much fun, except for when he put a sock on my forehead and I couldn’t figure out how to get it off! I ate around 9:15 and fell asleep around 9:45.
