Happy Valentine's Day.... a few days late.

All of our days off are over and it is back to the grind. Christopher is having a hard time getting back on his schedule. 5:45 a.m. was not his friend the first day back.... and I think his friends at daycare may have felt the ramifications of that. It's not even like we kept him up late over break. I think the longest he stayed up was the very first night and that was like 8:45.  Every other night he was in bed at his normal time. He did get to sleep in though and didn't have daddy waking him up when he was in his deep sleep... and he doesn't want to nap- which means he has to go to bed earlier than normal, which means less playtime with daddy. He already only gets like an hour to play with Matt and now it is even less. When we put Christopher down at night now he likes to say "Lu- Lou" which is his take on "love you" ... kinda like "thank you" is more like "tank ting." I especially love when he tries to imitate the inflection of our voice that we use.  I guess that makes putting him down early a little sweeter. Hopefully he gets adjusted and back on his normal sleeping schedule next week....
 
And on to the fun...PICTURE TIME!
 
Eating an éclair that daddy brought home for after dinner on Valentine's Day!

Opening his card.... and pressing the button to hear Elmo tell him he loves him!

Ready to open his Valentine's present!

Heading down to Uncle Anthony's reading Mickey.

Dinner with Anthony and Sara at Antico! YUM. Christopher liked watching them make the pizzas while we were waiting for a table. 

We went next door for a little gelato afterwards. Christopher enjoyed sharing with everyone. I think he liked Anthony's pistachio and Matt's cannoli the best. #thatsanitaliannose
 
Christopher celebrated Valentine's Day at daycare on Wednesday. Here is the bag that he decorated to put his treats in.

Here is the valentine that Christopher gave to his friends.

I have been seeing this Citrus Lane thing on Facebook for forever now and I was just dying to try it! We got out first box this week. Basically you get a box a month filled with goodies.  In this box there was a stock pot with a ladle and spatula (to enhance pretend play which Christopher totally started stirring and slurping), a silicone plate, a big board book and some organic apple hand cream for me! :) I didn't realize there would be something for me tucked in there!!

 
 
And 2 quick videos...
feeding his friends (Obviously not his real friends- he is a good pretender)
being goofy with his kitty (this kitty caused quite a problem the first day back at daycare... just another thing that set him off that morning)

And that's it! Hope everyone has a happy Friday!
