a day in the life...

It's hard to believe my maternity leave is more than half over. As frustrating as it can be being alone with a newborn all day, I'm going to miss it when I have to go back to work! And being home this time of year is so nice.. not having to deal with going out in the cold, and staying inside with the christmas tree lit up and carols on the radio (Colin and I spend hours dancing around the living room singing to carols - sometimes it's the only thing that quiets him down!) Here's some pictures of Colin's favorite daily activities...



After the first feeding of the morning, I'm awake and like to hang out on Mom's lap. Check out how I'm busting out of my newborn sleepers all of a sudden.



Then, we like to walk around the house and look at the lights and out the windows. Here I am checking out my first snowfall. I'm so impressed.



Sometimes Dad gets to sleep in because he stays up late trying to get me to bed. He has his hands full with the two of us.





Everyone loves to lay on Dad.






I like to catch some rays and nap. Remember when I was so tiny in this bouncer?




Then I like to "play" in my gym. My activity level rivals Mom's.




Checking out that handsome dude in the mirror.

This playing stuff is hard work. I think I'll nap instead. (truly mom's child!)

I like to end my day with some spa treatments. Check out that belly!
