6 weeks

I can't believe it has already been 6 weeks. If I were going back to work, this would be my last week with Callie full time. I think it would break my heart leaving her with someone else. At a daycare she wouldn't get rocked to sleep and have cuddle time with mommy. Not only does she need the cuddle time, I think I do too. I love spending time with her and trying to get her to smile.
We have really created a routine each day. Callie usually wakes up between 4-5am to feed and then goes back to sleep until 7-8am. Then we hang out around the house (eat, clean, go back to sleep). After that, we usually go on a walk around 9am, come home and while Callie is sleeping, Mommy is getting ready for the day. Then Mommy tries to pick up the house and eat some lunch before Callie wakes up. Then by 12pm, Callie wakes up and is ready to eat. She usually stays up for 2 hours and we are ready for a nap at 2pm. We sit down together to rock Callie to sleep and for Mommy to watch her shows and by 3 we are both asleep in the recliner. Loren gets home anywhere from 4:30 - 6:00pm (depending if he took the car or not) and we are awaiting his arrival. We spend awake time with daddy all evening. We then give Callie a bath around 9pm and wait for her nighttime poopy diaper. Then she is ready for bed and it is usually around 11:00pm.

It is awesome that she is getting an a schedule so early! It really makes things go a lot easier for Mommy!
