A Fun Mommy Baby Day

Today has been a fun day for Mommy AMills and her little Baby IsaMills. We had a very early morning, because we got to drop daddy off at work at 7:30. Mommy felt entitled to wear sweat pants and baby slept the whole way there, and Mommy got to chat with Daddy before he headed into work, which was nice. Then Mommy took Baby to the big bad Commissary, which actually turned out to be not so bad at all, since it wasn't even 8am yet. Baby slept like a champ in the carseat which was jammed into the cart, and Mommy was able to get the few things she needed with no problems! (On the way home, Mommy may or may not have purchased a tasty, yet horrible breakfast sandwich from the local fast-food drive thru, but that only makes Mommy feel bad about her self and a little queasy, so let's not mention it..) Once home, Mommy and Baby started to go for a walk, but found that even in Florida sometimes you really need mittens and a hat, which Mommy was without, so the walk was aborted quickly. That's ok though, because instead we got home and laid down for a morning nap. Mommy and Baby really know how to nap, so they snuggled side by side in bed, wrapped in covers, occasionallly nursing. Baby would stir and mommy would look down at the little sweet bundle snuggled up next to her, and usually just hugging Baby a little closer, or lightly patting or stroking her back would lull baby back into peaceful dreamland. Well, obviously with such a good deal, you like to get your money's worth, so Baby and Mommy took their "nap" until noon. After noon, baby had a change, and graciously only pooped through onto the very edge of her onesie, and so did not need a totally new outfit. After Baby played a little on her blankie on the floor and Mommy had a yummy leftover pork chop, which brutally scorched her mouth since all the knives were in the dishwasher and she basically speared the whole thing and ate bites right off, baby was tired and so Mommy decided that it was dancetime. Mommy scooped up baby, put on the cuban music cd, and Baby and Mommy "busted a moove" with all the best Latin dance styles. Baby was very very snuggly. Now Baby is lying in Mommy's lap and, in a rare mood, is not sleeping but not fussing, and just chilling in Mommy's lap, occasionally smiling up at Mommy, which is a new and delightful skill. In about an hour, Mommy and Baby will go pick up Daddy from work. Dinner may not be made, laundry may not be done, the rug may not be vacuumed, and Mommy may still be in sweats, but it sure has been a fun day!!

What a great day! That sends me back to the good old days. Will be posting soon about the kind of day I usually have with my baby. (Hint: not as fun!)
