Mommy is Getting Tired
Posted by Ida , Wednesday, April 7, 2010
While Madelyn was napping this morning William and Mommy played hide the egg. Ever since we started practicing for Easter, this is William's new favorite game. It is fun, but if William had his way this is what he'd do all day long! Mommy puts a treat in 4 or 5 plastic eggs (today it was red peppers) and then hides them as William counts. Then he scans the room for them. He is pretty good. Perhaps it is the food that motivates him!
Later in the morning, Madelyn, William and Mommy went to Katie and Safina's for a play date. Lots of little girls playing with William, the only boy. He was a great sharer and he hugged his friends goodbye.
William ate a lot today.
Breakfast: 1/2 cup protein shake or as he calls it, milkshake, and a bowl of cheerios.
Lunch: 1/2 peanut butter and nutella on wheat, 1/4 red peper, and a ton of grapes.
Dinner: chicken, rice, zucchini, red peppers, and a ton of strawberries.
He also had red peppers, rice crispy treats, strawberries, blueberries and cheese and crackers as snacks throughout the day.
William made "cookies" using the left over cookie dough from Laura's practice cookies. He rolled out the dough so much that it turned into a sticky mess. It kept him busy for quite a while, which was good since Mommy was soothing Madelyn to sleep for what turned out to be a 15 minute nap...ugh.
Madelyn is sleeping for 1/2 hour every 90 minutes after a good amount of soothing and it is wearing on Mommy. This is just a phase and eventually it will be over and on to the next one, but man, oh, man, it is exhausting. This week the plan is to figure out how to lengthen her naps!
ONE WEEK, ONE DAY UNTIL LAURA!
