Day #89 (Fri., Apr. 2, 2010) – The World Around Her
12:03am – My wife is in the nursery trying to calm little Katie down so she will go to bed. Hopefully soon…we are both almost fainting from exhaustion…
As we were driving around the neighborhood last night I mentioned to my wife that I thought I would be calling my daughter “pumpkin” or “princess”. Never did I think I would be calling her “chipmunk”. My father used to have all sorts of names for me when I was growing up so I guess I am just continuing on in the tradition. Guess the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree…go figure…
12:14am – Looks like little Katie is done for the evening (morning)…guess we are too… ZZZzzzzzz…..
Little Katie was “chipmunking” this morning so I picked her up from her crib (see photo on the right), changed her, and took her to her mother. She ate for a bit, but soon started cooing and playing. Looks like food might be taking second place to the wonders of the world around her…
I’m so tired that I sometimes find myself formulating a sentence and then half way through it forgetting what I was going to say. What a friend of mine told me is true…you can’t determine when you sleep and when you get up when you have a child. That is what wears you out eventually…
I went to Target today and picked up a light cotton hat for little Katie, then to the Dollar Store to pick up some Easter Supplies.
WHAT I LEARNED TODAY

1) Little Katie is recognizing the world around her more and more.
