Your mom had to babysit some other kids last night, and I figured I'd just take you home with me after I picked you up yesterday. You've been teething lately and haven't felt very good for the last couple of days.
Thankfully it was a beautiful sunshiny evening, so I grabbed the fish blanket and some toys and headed out to the front yard. You love being outside!
Good grief you're a strong kid . . . you spent most of the time climbing all over me . . . standing up while holding on . . . crawling and sitting! Every now and again you'd make your way over to the grass, but for some reason you weren't crazy about getting out into it . . . in spite of the fact that your mom said you loved it at Easter!
You ate dinner about 7 . . . your first taste of bananas . . . THAT was a win. It wasn't long before you started looking tuckered out, so I figured a nap would be in order.
You're pretty easy to put to sleep . . . lay you on your back, pacifier in your mouth, let you hold my arm while it rests across your little body. Within 5 minutes you were a goner! However, tonight, 30 minutes later you were fussy, so I came back in to lay down with you so you'd sleep a little longer . . . a 30 minute nap just isn't enough.
I truly cherish this time with you kid . . . there is nothing sweeter than to have tiny fingers wrapped around my hand . . .
Or a tiny head resting on my arm . . .
There are not enough words in the world to tell you how much I love you!
"Let him sleep, for when he wakes, he will move mountains!"
