Home for the Day

So happy that I get the entire day together with my little man.  Woke him up just after 8am (what's with the guy sleepin' in so long?)  We just hung out and played with some toys.  Tried a new cereal with lots of texture and flavour.  He liked it ok but he only ate about half of the serving.  He wasn't too interested in eating.  I think his teeth are still causing him some discomfort.  Daddy got home from work just past 10am so it's almost like he was home with us the whole day.  Just before 11am and it was bathtime for Declan. Boy sure was dirty. He was splashing lots. Declan really enjoys his bathtime.

Got him dried off, put on some baby cream, cleaned his ears, cut his nails and got him dressed. Then Declan went down (in his swing) for a nap.  Only lasted a sad 1/2 hour.  This means I didn't get much of anything accomplished during naptime. Had a LONG drawn out lunch because Declan was picky and wanted to eat a lot with his hands so after almost 2 hours of this we all headed out to the grocery store. The little man is the coolest at the grocery store.  He leans back with one arm over the side and the other across the back of the seat.  He's happily looking around and touches anything he can whenever we stop in an isle. 

It was after 4pm when we got home and Declan was due a bottle and a nap.  He was excited for his bottle but the nap he fought for 20 minutes.  Daddy finally got him to sleep but then he slept for almost 2 hours.  When he got up it was well past dinner time.  We gave him a couple pizza crusts to chomp on and another bottle, fresh diaper and jammies then some playtime with toys and off to bed at 8:30.  Mommy and Daddy are exhausted.  Why did this day kick our butts?
