Day 27

Dear Daddy,

Last night I gave mommy the gift of a little more sleep, and she was very grateful. I went to sleep well, slept till 6 and then got up for a bottle, and then went back down till almost 10. Since I've been getting up every day at 8, 8:30, that's when mommy woke up, so she was glad to be able to get some things done. Then I got up very cheerful, mommy and I talked for awhile, and then she changed my diaper before I ate....

As she was changing my diaper, I decided to make Lake Erie on the blanket in the second between diapers.

this was my reaction to what I did, once mommy stripped me down and cleaned me off-I got some naked time, since I had gone to the bathroom-a lot-already:
...and then mommy put my diaper on, and MAYBE a minute later, this is what happened:yup. I would have poo'd on the blanket.

So then I had my breakfast, and mommy just kept me naked because it was really hot, and they were bleaching the building so mommy had to keep the windows and slider closed (and it wasn't warm enough to turn on the air). We just chilled for a bit after that.

Then I had a bath, but mommy put my tub up on the sink for a change of scenery. Didn't work as well as she thought-I wanted to splash too much.
A little after that, I was ready for lunch-but as mommy was burping me, I fell asleep.
I slept for THREE hours.
We played for a bit, and sat outside since it was such a nice day...
I was pretty good all day long-but in the evening got a bit fussy. Mommy will take that though, since it wasn't an ALL day thing. Mommy got the bright idea of wetting a washcloth for me to chew on, and sure enough, I loved it-especially when I was chewing on a washcloth-covered mommy-finger.
I fell asleep pretty early-8:00 again. I went down just fine... no complaints!

Mommy thinks that the formula is helping. She's annoyed by it, since the powder is a little more moist and thus harder to scoop and mix, but is thinking she's going to stick with it. Hopefully it's the start of a new me... its about time. Mommy misses the happy baby she had the first month of my life.

And-that bottom tooth is getting closer and closer to popping through. That one will probably beat the top ones. It's going to look so silly though, because it's not one of the middle bottom teeth.

I love you, daddy, and I can't wait to see you.
Love, Maya
