This morning little Declan slept until almost 7:30am when he got up for his "oh my god I'm starving" bottle. Finished it, bum change and back to bed. Didn't get up again until 9:30am and technically Mom woke him up because she wanted to get in a nice walk this morning before the day got too busy.
So an hour stroller ride in what would turn out to be quite a lot of humidity. Poor little man was all sweaty as was Mommy. Declan did stay awake for all but a mere 10 minutes of the walk. He's pretty curious.
Home in time to put together some outdoor things and get ourselves set up to enjoy an afternoon by the pool in the shade of a couple big umbrellas. Then it was time to try a new food for brunch: Avocado. Let's just say that the hunger saw him finish off about 1 oz but the taste kept him from actually eating the entire 2 oz meal. If that would have been bananas or cereal he would have polished it off. Oh well. He still has three more days of the stuff. We'll see if we have better luck tomorrow. Declan is still having 2 meals a day and did in fact polish off all of his cereal for dinner.
During our afternoon backyard day Madison also hung out with Mommy and Declan. Around 12:45pm Hayley and Declan's buddy Owen dropped by to hang out for a couple hours and go in the pool - Baby Swim! Declan showed Owen how good he is when Mommy dunks him in the pool. Then Owen got his first chance to be dunked in the water and he too did very good. A bit surprised they both were but quickly recovered. Tough little nuggets. Very nice Daddy got home from work at a good time so he joined in the fun, well, that is until Declan passed out for a very nice long nap.
This evening Declan once again got to sit atop Mommy's belly and have a giggle fest. I still don't get what is so freakin' hilarious about sitting on my belly but the kid just loves it. Madison snapped a whole lot bunch of photos of the kid laughing like crazy.
About 7:30 Declan had a nice bath with his lavender soap and body cream, got into his jammies and then hung out with Madison for his nightime bottle. He still had a bit of the giggles but eventually he calmed down somewhat. Then for some snuggles with Mom before heading down for the night. Whew...Mom is tired.
