Today was a terrific day. It started with me waking up, somewhat frantic, at 7:30 with no Leo in bed with me. I rushed into his room, and there he was: just chilling in his crib, staring at his mobile. When I walked over and peeked in, he smiled at me and squealed. Best. Kid. Ever.

So he jumped and played and was generally adorable and pleasant. Then he took a little nap while I put away all of his tiny baby clothes.

I'm not going to lie, I got a little emotional about it. But I got it together, and then we headed to my Nanny Hilda's for lunch.

Leo bean was sweet as peaches, just smiling and staring and cooing at Nanny. She loved it. And I got a yummy lunch, so it was a good time all-around.

 Then we came home to see Chicky. He was very mad at Vinny, who apparently ran away when he tried to get him to come in. I don't believe it for a second.

Such a good boy.

Leo bean was still sleeping when we got home, and I wanted to snuggle, so I brought him onto the couch with me. He slept for TWO MORE HOURS. It was awesome. He's such a little cuddle bunny. Then we went to my parents' house for dinner. Leo jumped in the jumper and tried on a hat I used to wear when I was his age.

It's pretty eerie how much he looks like I did when I was his age. Eerie, but awesome. He ate a whole bowl of cereal and we sang a bunch of songs. Then we came home and did our normal bedtime routine.

Being a mom is the best.
