A day in the life of Fenix

I thought I would give you an idea of what life is like with a 5 month old. This was what we did on 3/9.

7:50 am I wake up to hear Fenix babbling, laughing and kicking his mattress as hard as he can. Since he isn't crying I let him hang out while I try to wake up.

8:00 am I walk into his room to see a super happy Fenix. I also notice that he has scooted all the way to the bottom of his crib. I am dying to know he does this! I then give him lots of hugs and kisses, asked what he dreamed about, change his diaper and then give him breakfast.

8:30 am Grandpa Steve comes over! He hangs out with Grandpa and shows off his skills in his walker.

9:30 am Grandpa leaves then we all get ready for our busy day.

10:20 am We hear Fenix whining in his walker and figure he is stuck somewhere and can't get out. He was angry because he pooped out of his diaper, duh. Carrots were a bad choice. It was definitely a two person job that required 20 wipes. Oh, the glamorous life of a parent.

10:40 am We start our adventure.

10:50 am Fenix  is asleep. Party pooper.

11:00 am We arrive at the CHP to get Fenix's new convertible car seat installed properly. Matt and the police officer take an hour to go over everything while Fenix and I hang out.

12:30 We eat at Five Guys for the first time and Fenix sits in a high chair... and that lasted 2 minutes before he wanted out. He was super nice though and let us eat our food without scratching or yelling at us.

1:30 We get home and Grandma Suzy comes over! Both grandparents in one day, Fenix sure is lucky.

2:30 Grandma leaves and Fenix gets second lunch.
I forgot to mention my son is a hobbit and has two of every meal.

4:30 Fenix slept for 2 whole hours. Christmas came early.

4:30- 7 Fenix gets first dinner. We hang out, talk about life and give lots and lots of kisses and raspberries.

7:00 We have dinner while Fenix sits on the couch with his boppy around him. He entertains himself by pushing his face into the boppy and then bouncing back up. He does this over and over while laughing. I try to contain myself. This surely means he is ready for Harvard, obviously.

8:00- 8:20 Fenix gets his bath then we lotion him up, put his jammies on and of course, brush all of his hair.

8:20 We turn off all the lights and he gets his last meal of the day.

8:30 He goes to sleep without a peep, 
thank you Lord!

This was an incredibly exceptional day for Fenix. I don't think he cried even once.
