Already Wednesday?

I can't believe tomorrow is already Wednesday...this week is flying by! Work has been pretty crazy and I feel like there are not enough hours in the day to do all the stuff I have to do! I also hate that when I leave work late, I only get about an hour with Brody before I have to get him ready for bed and fed! Today, my Dad said he was so good. My Mom and Dad had a doctor's appointment and they took him with them and they said he was laughing and talking and having a good time! He is such a flirt! He slept a little bit this morning and only had about a 30 minute cat nap this afternoon so he was pretty tuckered out tonight. He fell asleep the minute the car left my parents' driveway and he slept on the 5 minute ride home. Then, I played with him for about 20 minutes, fed him his cereal, gave him his bath, then got him ready and fed him his bottle.

While I was getting his bottle ready, Ted called me. Mind you, he is 6 hours a head of us and this was about 7:45 pm, which meant it was 2:45 am Italy time! He went out with some of the guys over there for his birthday tonight and was a little intoxicated when he called me! It was pretty funny. I think he is definitely ready to come home! I had the phone on speaker as I started to feed Brody and Ted was talking to him. A few times, he started smiling like he knew who was on the other end of the phone. Then, he tried to put the phone in his mouth and I figured I should give him the bottle back. I tell you.....I do not envy single mothers!! While it takes us only a day or 2 to get into a routine once Ted leaves, it is definitely much easier when there are 2 people taking care of him. This is especially true as I start to feed him and realize that I left his pacifier downstairs! But, I absolutely love being a mother and would not trade it for anything!!

Here are a few pictures from tonight before I put him to bed! He was watching cartoons on our bed while I was getting changed. He is doing really well with sitting up!!
