All About Mommy Kind of Day

It started since this morning, and usually she is all about daddy. Whether my husband likes to admit it or not, she is a daddy’s girl through and through. However, today she was all about mommy.

She woke up a bit cranky early this morning, my husband wasn’t able to soothe her like usual, so to give my husband a rest, I swooped in and held her while I swayed a bit. She stopped crying almost instantly and I asked her “Can mommy lay with you?” and I set her little feet on the bed and slowly laid her down to snuggle. Well she wasn’t interested in snuggling, instead she was making her happy screech noise and climbing all over me. My husband laid in bed with us and we were just smiling and letting her do her thing. Eventually my husband took her to her mat to play and I got a bit more rest.

Not long after, it was nap time, my husband fed her as we all laid in bed. She fell asleep and my husband went to work out as her and I slept. She slowly made her way to me, as she always does, and snuggled up. I was glad for the cuddles, however I was on the edge of the bed. I ultimately decided to move to my husband’s side of the bed….

Well that was a mistake!

She woke up not even five minutes after I had moved and was not a happy camper. My husband came rushing in with a bottle and I rubbed her back, she fell back asleep with her head nestled in my armpit. I’m sure some people will think that’s gross, but it’s her favourite spot. After a while I got out of bed, but left my night shirt on the pillow so that she could still smell me.

I love when I get snuggles from Valeria, it’s one of my all time favourite things. She isn’t overly snugly right now, so it makes it all the more special when she does it.

She woke up a bit later and had a big smile on her face when she saw me.

The rest of the day was pretty boring. It was raining most the time, so we had to think of things to do indoors. We went to Costco to pick up some things, came home for Valeria to nap a little than went to the mall. We went to look at a store that sells suits (getting ideas for my husband for his sister’s wedding), the crystal shop and than to a clothing store to see if I could find anything for the Baptism. I found a beautiful linen floral skirt, now I just need a top. She was smiley and happy all day long and wanted to keep coming to me, especially during our evening walk.

She only had two naps today so 7:30 PM rolled around and well…she was out like a light. Now I’m going to relax with my husband and hopefully she will sleep for a good long while.

Hope you all have a wonderful evening!

Ciao!!

      1. Oh okay I thought it was my WordPress as well giving me a bit of trouble, especially on the mobile version. Glad it seems I am not the only one! Yes I’m so excited and it’s coming up fast! I have so much planning to do, but we are heading to our Baptism Prep class on Monday which should be really nice 🙂

      2. That is wonderful the baptism is coming together! The class will make it all the more real, I am sure!!!! Yeah I dont know what is up with my wordpress. When I am on the reader and I click a blog all is great, it is just when I go back to the reader it takes me back to the top of the reader and I have to scroll down to get to another blog. After about 4 or five blog post it gets tedious having to scroll pages and pages just to read the few blogs I follow. I tried to just click on each blogs so it will list all of that blogs post but still does it. So again after a few posts on that blog I am having to scroll and scroll. I get vertigo so the scrolling isn’t good for me lol Hopefully they will fix it other wise if I miss a day, I will just have to miss a day 😢

      3. I hope so too, it sounds exactly like the problem I was having on my phone. After a while I just couldn’t be bothered and would catch up on my computer instead. Though I’ve been a bit behind lately on my daily reading
