A Day in the Life of Sarah

Wednesday, October 14

4:26 Wake Mommy and Daddy up by thumping my legs up and down.
4:32 Wake up, diaper change, eat.
4:50 Back to bed. Mommy holds my hand so I can't roll over.
4:55 Sleep.
7:36 Wake up, roll around in crib.
7:55 Get trapped in corner of crib. Mommy rescues me. Eat.
8:10 Naked time! Roll around in living room.
8:18 Diaper back on. It's new carpet, after all.
8:28 Play in chair with two of my giraffes while Mommy showers.
8:34 Roll around on floor.
8:43 Back in chair while Mommy dries her hair.
8:53 Eat.
8:59 Get dressed. Rainbow pants today.

10:15 Home. Diaper change. Eat.
10:30 Sleep.
11:20 Wake up. Realize rainbow pants accidentally got put in washer while I was sleeping. Settle for brown pants with built in socks instead.
11:25 Wrestling match as Mommy tries to remove the one form of self defense I have, my fingernails. She wins seven rounds, I win three. I consider it a moral victory.
11:41 Eat.
11:58 Take Casey for a walk. Doze off for a little while.
12:53 Back home. Diaper change, wiggle, cuddle, and practice sitting up.
1:22 Realize I'm starving. Scream until Mommy feeds me.
1:37 Lay down in crib. Wiggle, fuss, cry, try to roll over, spit out pacifier. Repeat.
1:58 Sleep.
2:03 Cry out in sleep. False alarm.
2:41 Wake up. Diaper change and make funny noises.
2:55 Go outside to supervise Mommy while she does yard work.
3:33 Back inside. Play in jumper while Mommy starts dinner.
4:08 Diaper change. Eat.
4:25 Sleep.
5:07 Wake up. Play in jumper while Mommy cleans kitchen.
5:22 Demand to be played with. Roll on floor, play airplane, chat.
5:36 Eat.
5:50 DADDY'S HOME!
5:54 Mommy and Daddy eat supper. I entertain by talking about my day.
6:18 Read book with Daddy.
6:34 Say goodbye to Mommy when she goes to choir practice.
6:50 Pajamas. One more book.
7:09 Eat. Daddy gives me chilled milk!
7:15 Freak out. Chew on teething ring.
7:20 Eat some more.
7:30 Sleep.

As you can tell, we're trying to take advantage of the nice weather while we can.  Also, Sarah didn't realize it, but Matthew came home while she was sleeping and went for a bike ride, so the time she was excited about was actually the second time he came home.

If you were keeping track, that was seven diaper changes, nine feedings, and three naps.  Probably pretty close to most days, with some variation.  She's starting to stretch out her night time sleep again, for awhile in the past month we were up 3-5 times a night, but I'm hopeful the 1-2 times is coming back this week (knock on wood).

Somehow close to half of her toys are giraffes right now.
