Mr. Mom

Just completed my first full week of my new job, Mr. Mom. I loved it! Xavier and I are getting into a routine. We start with play time from about 6:30 when he wakes us up until it's bottle time around 8am. Then we read/play with a book and play some more. I can usually let him play in his bouncy chair for 15 minutes or so while I check e-mail and facebook type stuff on the internet. A walk up to the park for a little swinging then he's about ready for his first nap. That happens about 10am. At which time I frantically try and get things done around the house. He only naps for half hour to 45 minutes. Then we try and do something out of the house. We have music class on Tuesdays and Thursday we went to the Giants game. He'll usually take another nap in the afternoon around 3pm or so. This one is usually either in the car seat or baby bjorn. Xavier is in his seperation anxiety phase so he doesn't like me to be out of sight and cries and crawls after me if I try and go get something really quick.

I am really fortunate to get this time with Xavier. By this time I mean this time in his life when he is how he is, so cute and cuddly, developing so fast. Eager to see everything. The world is unfolding before him and I get a front row seat.
