today is my 28th birthday. it also apparently the limit of my brain capacity. when baby levi woke up from his nap at 11:00 this morning i thought to myself “ah, perfect. it’s time for him to eat.” i went to get him from his crib. i changed his diaper. i brought him to the living room to hang out. then i decided we need to water the garden. then he started fussing. a lot. i couldn’t figure out why he was fussy! i checked his diaper. i checked his clothes to make sure nothing was pinching him. i bounced him and rocked him and for 30 minutes he cried! so i put him in his swing to see if that would calm him and i took the trash out. when i came back in i took one look at him and realized i had forgotten to feed him at 11:00!!! poor little boy was crying for almost 40 minutes and i never once thought “hmm, maybe he’s hungry.” it was very weird and definitely the first time that has ever happened. so i fed him and he was perfectly happy. and i don’t feel too bad, because i know that he probably wasn’t starving. i just feel a little ditzy!
so other than that, my birthday has been delightful. it is 1:00 in the afternoon and we are both still in our pj’s. we don’t do this often. even though i stay at home with the baby i still am intentional about getting a shower and getting dressed every day (unless i know i’m going to be doing a lot of cleaning that day). i got a lot of shopping money, which is awesome because i very much need some new clothes to go with my new bod. the baby weight is gone, but everything is in a new place! jon did a great job with my birthday presents. i got a rain jacket, kit kats, and a flip camcorder! i’m so excited! i wanted to get one before the baby was born, but i was slack about it and then we kind of ran out of time. oh, and he also got me the new Harry Potter movie, which i have not seen yet because i was hugely pregnant when it was in theaters and i couldn’t comfortably sit through a whole movie at one time. i can’t wait to watch it!
