Day 92: Poop Machine

on June 12, 2008

Stretch, interrupted.

Well, after going four whole days without a poop, I’ve now pooped four times in the last two days — twice yesterday and twice today.  It’s great to see them on their toes.  I woke up at 5:00 for my bottle, which Dad gave me.  While Dad was burping, I emptied my bowels — much to his surprise!  I stayed up for an hour or so playing wtih Mom and then I fell asleep for about three hours.

I then spent an abnormally long time (almost an hour) eating, followed by my second “movement” of the morning.  This definitely warranted a bath, which Mom gave me.  I kept hoping we’d get to go out today, but the heat was pretty miserable so there was no way we were leaving the apartment.

I took a nap, ate twice, and then dozed off for about half an hour.  So, I took a 3-hour nap, a 90-minute nap, and a half-hour nap.  Not too bad!

Uncle Marty came over to see me — and he got to our apartment a lot earlier than he usually does, so we were able to play for quite a while (unlike last time, when I barely caught a glimpse of him as I was heading off to sleep!).  He brought me an early birthday (well, I turn 3 months old tomorrow) present.  It’s part toy, part blanket, part teether, and part noisy crunchy thing that he really liked.  He’s gotten so comfortable with me that he even did “Super Maggie” (which has yet to be recorded by a camera!).  He’s sure come a long way since he was afraid to even stand up while holding me.

Mom fed me and then headed out for an evening out with Aunt Ali.  I think they were drinking something slippery or purple or both — I’m sure I’ll taste it when I get up in the morning!  I didn’t fall asleep for quite a while after I finished eating — probably around 9:30.

Now that’s something worth lifting my head for…
