** posted at the suggestion of Thomas's lovely birth mom and is a couple months old, but our schedule is still pretty much the same.
6:30 - wake up & bottle
(alway an early riser - starting the day pretty much how we ended the one before)
7:00 - diaper change & play with dad before work
8:00 - breakfast
(today scrambled eggs and mandarin oranges)
9:00 - read books
(he picks the books, crawls them over, climbs into my lap, and turns all the pages while I read)
9:30 - explore whole house
(pull down everything within reach, find smallest and most dangerous things and insert in mouth, circle coffee table and sofa as many times as possible)
10:00 - morning nap
12:00 - lunchtime
(today multigrain bread, corn, peas, carrots, dehydrated strawberries, only to be eaten when separated by item, but will never touch corn although we keep trying)
1:00 - sing songs
(clap hands to initiate patty-cake x 100, bash out original tunes on piano)
1:30 - independent play
(aka: the race to scatter every single item in his room)
2:00 - afternoon nap
4:00 - snack & play
(outside in summer, in nursery during colder months, which can be rougher than it sounds when getting stuck beneath a table)
5:00 - go on walk
(either in his wagon or the stroller. he loves to look at all the horses & ducks we pass on the way)
6:00 - dinnertime
6:30 - bath, bottle, stories, teeth brushed, prayers, songs, & kisses goodnight
(crosses his legs & plays with his wooden brush every time we change his diaper or get him dressed)
7:00 - bottle & bedtime
(ending the day pretty much as we started it)
