Life has been becoming a bit easier around the Spence household. We have found ourselves in "sort of" a routine. Atleast as much of a routine you can have with a 7 week old. Our day begins around 6:30am with Zander sucking loudly on his fists or grunting while he has his morning Poo. I slowly roll out of bed and make him a bottle. I bring it to Tyler who feeds our boy his first meal of the day. I let the monsters out of their crates (Tank and Gunther), feed them, let them out, and jump into the shower. By the time I am done with my shower, Zander is fed, burped, changed, and ready for the day (thank you Tyler). Then Zander enjoys some quiet time in his swing while I eat my breakfast and we watch the Today show. Sometimes he falls asleep in the swing, if not then we have our tummy time.
The rest of the day is spent napping, talking, and playing. Sometime between 6 and 6:30 Tyler arrives home. We all have dinner of some sort. Typically something easy, (we just finished all the meals that were either cooked by my wonderful mom when she was here or brought over by the girls at work) so I actually had to cook tonight. Next my favorite time of the evening...getting ready to retire to the bedroom. Zander either gets a bath, book, bottle, and bed or book, bottle, and bed. I love it when it's bath night. He does too.
Well that's it that's my day in a nut shell and I love every minute of it.
What a cutey!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're having a great time! I think the title should have been:

I can't wait to meet my adorable nephew! I'm so glad you're enjoying motherhood so much! How could you not, though??!
That sounds like an awesome routine! I'm impressed that you shower so early! I just assumed I would be taking a lot of afternoon/evening showers (because I'm lazy) but I think I'll try it your way. A much more productive way to start a day of napping, talking and playing! Oh, I'm so jealous and excited at the same time! Zander is one handsome fellow.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Third picture from the top - I LOVE LOVE LOVE that chunky hand!!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds wonderful Tammy Jo! And Jack is also a "morning poo-er". His bouncy seat makes him drop huge bombs, so I usually park him in there about 30 min before we have to leave when we're running errands. It almost always guarantees a poo free outing. =D

ReplyDeleteOops, I had a typo and tried to fix it. What a cute cute little boy Tammy. I love that you love being a mommy. Congratulations on getting into a routine. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteHe's getting to be such a chunk! I love those cheeks! I can't believe how quickly babies change. It's awesome that you even have a routine at this stage in the game- I don't think we had anything close to a routine until Apollo was at least four months old. Love you!
ReplyDeleteThese are great, Tammy! Isn't it cool how the babies are now starting to develop little personalities and don't look like newborns anymore? I see a lot of your husband in Zander's face, but something about him looks like you too. I'm so glad you're having fun. Nice work on the early shower!
