Day 54: My Prince Charming

I was woken up in one of the best ways today.  My husband had gone up to get Little Buddy and I was still asleep in my bed.  I awoke to the sound of my husband whispering, "Go give Momma a kiss" and the sound of a 33 pound toddler crawling across the sheets.  Next thing I know, I'm getting the most perfect little peck on the cheek.  I opened my eyes to see the most joyful grin directed right at me.  There may be no better way to start the day.

Later on, we headed to the area park to play for a bit.  He was pretty happy going down the slide and swinging in the swings.

After an hour playing, we headed over to the library for Toddler Time.  We hadn't made it there in about a month.  School and half-marathon training had just messed with our schedule too much, along with Little Buddy's changing nap schedule.  We picked out two books for the week and had a great time listening to the stories, dancing, and singing.  I am so glad we were able to make it back and hope to keep going on a regular basis.

We rushed home after story time, with me trying desperately to keep Little Buddy awake.  If I could keep him awake long enough to feed him lunch, I may be able to squeeze another long nap out of him.  Of course, he's half asleep when we get home, so I keep talking to him to keep him awake.  I did manage to get him to sit down at the table, but he wasn't fully awake.  It was hilarious to watch him sleep eat his lunch.  Eating strawberries and smiling, all with his eyes shut.

I did manage to get him to take that long nap.  Three hours to be exact.  However, he did wake up after an hour.  I picked him and he fell back asleep in arms.  Another afternoon where I could have been more productive, but still not a bad way to pass an afternoon.

I love him so much.

Night all,
