Morning moments

Surprised by the lack of photos? My excuse is that I am either breastfeeding or topless or with a double chin in nearly every photo that we have.

Since David returned to work yesterday, I thought I would give myself a little project and try to capture some snippets of our day.

Morning routine

(OMG it is so hard not using Baby Spritzer Leyba’s real name here! I keep finding myself typing it and no luck in the pseudonym department as no other name seems to fit. Her name is just so her. Sorry for teasing you… we’ll try to come up with something soon.)

Morning routine

Here’s our Monday…

8am after feeding and nap, cuddling in bed; mama writes in her journal while baby sleeps

10am grandma holds baby while Carrie cooks breakfast; quick sleepy feeding and sun therapy time (jaundice almost gone!)

11am attempt to assemble crib while babe sleeps (a place to put the baby so I can pee! during naptime! and a future sleeping spot); briefly interrupted for feeding

And then I got completely sidetracked and forgot to write down what we were up to.

I think we ate, changed diapers, wet receiving blankets, did laundry, watched Amelie (we turned on the tv! it’s been off for two weeks), etc. Basically spent the day covered in pee and poop and throw-up. And it was lovely. A perfectly wondrous baby day.

  1. i LOVE that she is sleeping with her arms up under her head like that! and fyi, i would like to nibble on her forearms as soon as i’m done with her cheeks.

  2. She is so sweet — love that shot of the green bed looking so cozy.
    I can imagine that her name does match her ‘look’; we knew our girl was Lucy right when we saw her, and we can’t imagine her as anything else.
    All the best!

  3. so cute! i know you cant post her real name on the net but can you tell me in email? id love to know what you named this bundle of sweetness :)

  4. Carrie,

    Does the baby have a blister on her lips from breast feeding (and I hope you are not too sore)?

    love

    Daddy
