Naps and Nipples: July 11th


July 11th- New Routines


These past two days have basically been the same thing. We are on a routine/schedule now, not an ideal one but a routine/schedule non the less.
Here it is from breakfast:
9:30 bottle and either ½ playtime or right back to sleep. Noon wake up for Lunch, and stay up until about 1:30ish. He takes about an hour and half nap. When he is good and awake he is ready for cereal. He has about 2 ounces of milk then 3 tablespoons of cereal mixed with applesauce. He stays up for about 2 more hours and sleeps about 5 and is up in time for us to start dinner. He has a bottle and then chills in his bouncy chair watching Mommy and usually Daddy make dinner. He has been letting Mommy eat dinner lately, quickly but a hot meal is still a hot meal! After Mommy’s dinner it’s usually bottle time, and then an hour later at 9ish we have cereal again. We chill for about 45 minutes and off to the bath we go. Depending on how tired he is he either stays up and has a bottle or goes right to sleep. No matter when he goes to sleep he wakes up at 1am or 2am and is up until 3am or 4am. From this point the cycle starts all over again. It’s a crazy routine but it seems to work for him and he has been sleeping 6 hours a night, then another 2 or 3 after the breakfast feeding!!

We did have fun again today as a family. Dominic sat with Daddy on the floor watching TV. Later Daddy put Dominic in between his legs and he sat there for quite some time. Dominic loves to stand up so natural he did just that! A while later while playing on his boppy Mommy had fun taking lots of pictures of him playing with his feet.
