Sorry, readers, yesterday should have been an official “Poop Watch.” And since I didn’t poop yesterday, this marks the longest I’ve gone without pooping in the modern (post-meconium) era.
Today started with more midnight madness, as I got hungry for a bottle at 2:30 am. Maybe I’m going through a growth spurt and Mom and Dad just need to get used to this new schedule — until I come up with a new new one. I woke up again at 5:30 and ate with Mom (can’t draw down the milk reserves!). I stayed up and played until I fell for an hour at 7:00.
We had plans to meet Aunt Ali and Uncle Ryan at the park so I ate a real meal at 8:00 and then a quick snack at 9:30 to hold me over. Aunt Claire and Maddi met us the park with bagels. The bikini girls were out en masse! When do I get a bikini? And what’s up the the Speedo guys? Ewww!
It was so hot in the park. When we got ready to head home, Aunt Claire and Maddi went to meet up with another friend. We picked up Dad at Starbucks (who went there to get some work done) on our way home. I ate lunch and then Mom tried to skip to yoga, but Dad was pretty persuasive and so she took off as soon as I was done eating. I was kind of fussy so Dad tried to get me to sleep. I calmed down, but amused myself in my bassinet for about 45 minutes. I cried a bit and Dad calmed me down again and moved me to his bed. I fell asleep pretty quickly.
Mom got back from yoga and was surprised that I wasn’t “starving” since my morning feedings were not as long as usual. Maybe she forgot that my abdominal region was full of, um, “outbound traffic.” Anyway, I finally got up and ate at 2:30 and finally, at 4:30, I let loose with a diaper full of miky-way-nougat. Dad gave me a bath and then I got to wear one of the new outfits that Aunt Sarah sent me! I like my new wardrobe and am excited to try them all on.
I took a nap around 4:30. I got up and was in a super-good mood all evening — one of my happiest evenings in recent memory. I danced around with Mom and Dad and made lots of giggly sounds during dinner. It was really fun!
