Grant and I were in New Orleans last weekend for a wedding. Julie and "Ah-dah" were so very kind and kept William. William sent them the email below to help them better understand how he runs our house :) He is the boss after all!
I usually wake up between 6-6:45. I will cry or scream "mommy/daddy" when I'm ready to get out of my crib. Don't change my diaper immediately. I like to run to the kitchen, stand on the counter (with your help) and get 2 nutri grain bars out of the box. You need to open my bars for me but don't take them out of the package completely. I do that. Then I want you to turn on cartoons (channel 50) while I drink milk and eat my breakfast. After I finish eating, bribe me with ONE m&m/skittle to change my diaper and get me dressed for school. I have to take an empty sippy cup in my blue Trinity UMC bag to school on Friday.
Around 9:30am I like to eat some crackers and a cheese stick. If you take me somewhere outside, spray my legs and arms with bug spray and put sunscreen on me. Again, I may need ONE m&m or skittle to mind you.
Between 11-11:30 I'm ready for lunch. I like a turkey and cheese wrap in a tortilla heated up in the microwave for 13 seconds. With my wrap, I'll eat grapes/blueberries and an apple sauce pouch..maybe a banana pouch too.
11:30-12: I'm usually getting cranky which means I need a nap. Turn on my noise machine. I take water in a sippy cup to bed. I'll probably scream when you first put me in the crib but I'll calm down. Tell me if I take a good nap I get to do something fun when I wake up. I usually sleep until 1:30-2. If I cry before 1:30 go in and rub my back, and tell me I need more rest.
2pm: Snack. Grapes/cookies/yogurt. I'll tell you what I am in the mood for.
5pm: Dinner (I love rice, sweet potatoes, tacos, black beans, peanut butter and honey sandwiches, mac n cheese, and pizza). I'll ask for milk in a big boy cup but my mommy usually insists I drink out
of a sippy cup.
6pm: Bath or shower. I'll tell you which one I want. You may have to bribe me with ONE m&m or Skittle to get me to mind you. Put my Mederma scar cream on my right cheek from where I injured myself with a straw. Give me a 5 minute warning before you take me back to my room for bedtime. I don't like to be surprised by that.
7:30pm: rocking and reading a book. Say my prayers* with me. I may scream when you put me in the crib.
Repeat.
*Dear Jesus. Thank you for this day. Thank you for loving me. {pray for every single person I know...even the neighbors dogs} I love you. Amen
