I love Fridays! It is my day to work from home and I get so excited when it is here because I don't have to do all the hustle and bustle of getting ready, dropping Brody off and then sitting in traffic on my way to my wonderful job! I normally get up with him, check my e-mails, feed him and then put him down for his morning nap. He normally takes a longer morning nap than in the afternoon so it gives me a couple of hours of getting alot of work done. Then he gets up, I feed him lunch and he plays for a little bit before he goes down for his afternoon nap. This nap isn't as long, but it gives me a chance of getting in the shower and doing more work. Today, I was really busy and he was so good all day. He was in the best mood today, smiling and laughing (except for that 15 minutes when he went down for his afternoon nap).
He is now starting to grab on to the bottle like he wants to hold it. It is also pretty funny because when I am feeding him, if I take the bottle out of his mouth sooner than he wants, he reaches up and either grabs my hand or the bottle and guides it back into his mouth like, "hey....wait a minute...I am not done!" I know it will be soon enough before he starts to hold his bottle and doesn't want mommy to do it anymore! I am not looking forward to that. :(
He is now starting to eat 3 meals a day. I feed him his cereal and some fruit in the morning, and then veggies for lunch and dinner. I am trying to cut the cereal out at night, and I cut it back tonight so I will be interested to see if that affects him. I am also going to start introducing him to the sippy cup. My pediatrician told me that I could start giving him some water and some juice (well really 95% water and 5% juice), but told me to give it to him in a sippy cup and not his bottle. That should be interesting.
Ted comes home tomorrow night. I skyped with him this morning so we could see each other and he could see Brody. The skype thing is so cool...I am glad they have it. He is also able to call the house or my cell from his computer too, so no matter where he is, he can still call. His plane gets in around 7:00 and I know he will be pretty tuckered out when he gets here. I am not really sure how long the flight is, but I know it is a long one. Before I pick him up, Tab, her mom, my mom and I are going to see Nights in Rodanthe. I am so excited. The book was so good and I love Nicholas Sparks. I just hate it when they change the storyline too much when a book is made into a movie. I read a review and they did say one thing that is different. Although it doesn't change the storyline, it is still different. I am sure there will be others. But, I can't wait! I love Diane Lane and Richard Gere together. It is going to be soooo good. I hope it lives up to my expectations!
Well, Brody is in bed and the Red Sox game was in a game delay and I think it is coming back on so I am off to watch that! Hope everyone has a great weekend!
