The big news today was that I consolidated all of my daytime sleep into exactly three naps, just what Mom and Dad have been trying to get me to do for almost two weeks.
I knew it was going to be an exciting day when — right after my early morning bottle — Dad and Aunt Claire packed me up and took me out in the rain. Dad carried me down the steps into the Columbus Circle subway stop and we headed down to Dad’s office (with the requisite stop at Starbucks).
I was quite a bit fussier than usual at Dad’s office, but luckily no one else was at work for the first few hours I was there. I sat with him (in the Baby Bjorn) at his desk for a while and sat on his desk (in my car seat) and even got some time playing around on the floor. Dad gave me a mini-bottle and then put me to bed on the couch in his conference, which also doubled as Aunt Claire’s office for the day. I got up around 10:30 and had a bottle. After Dad and Aunt Claire were convinced that I wasn’t in a playful mood, Aunt Claire and I walked home together.
I napped from 12-1 and 2:30-6:00. Around 7:00, Mom’s and Dad’s friends Christian and Reshma came over to meet me and they brought me a really nice blanket. I wasn’t very nice to Reshma as I cried as soon as she held me. And Christian had a bit of a cough, so he looked out for my best interest and just waved at me. They all went out to dinner and I hung out with Aunt Claire — but I got fussy pretty quickly so she gave me a bottle and I fell asleep.
