Weekdays

(It wasn't really necessary since nothing really showed the way he was positioned, but I censored the picture below just in case there are creeps out there that find this blog.)

As you can see...dinnertime at our house is closely followed by BATHTIME!

Calvin loves bathtime. He also loves dinnertime.  I hate to jinx it by putting this out there... but ever since this weekend, we have been having better sleep. Sunday night he cried - a real mad cry - for about 30 minutes then was zonked. Monday night - fell asleep with bottle and STAYED ASLEEP when I layed him down. He hasn't done this for a long time!  Tuesday night - same story!  Tonight he woke up when I lay him down but I left him there and he only cried for about 5 minutes.

Now that he's going to bed decently, he's been staying asleep for the most part too - sometimes he wakes up at 4 or 5 for a bottle, but that's so much better than what it was!
So now our evening schedule has become manageable again:
5:15 or so... Calvin's dinner (and Copper's dinner)
6-ish ... Jeremy and Angie's dinner
6:30-ish bathtime! Calvin will let us know when it's time, believe me.
7-ish ... bottle and bed. Asleep by about 7:30
And I'm out the door with Copper on a walk!

I love that I finally have time for a walk with Copper - and he's enjoying it too! We're finding that he knows more of our neighbors than we do. They all stop right outside the fence when they're walking their dogs, and Copper just makes friends with everyone, so they recognize him on walks too!
