Life of a full time mommy. Part 1

What does taking care of an almost 7 month olds schedule look like?

This is actually a list of times for both my moms and whoever else may babysit him. Just easier for me to write what I do every day, so that they have an easier time taking care of him. He is one of those types of babies that are really scheduled oriented.

Update of Josiah’s 7 month schedule:

 (schedule may change periodically in causes of new learning/weaning to older baby things)

 6:30-7:00   eats a 6oz bottle, wake up if he sleeps in longer than 7:15.

7:30-7:45   eats baby cereal with peaches, bananas, or applesauce.

9:00   lay down for morning naptime

12:00-1:00   wakes up from nap(if he goes longer that’s ok it’s his most important nap that he needs, if he does sleep longer than extend his playtime to a later naptime unless he seems like he’s ready) he gets a 6oz bottle/sippy (learning to transition)

1:30-2:00   gets a veggie meal, fruit for dessert (add baby cereal to thicken)with 2oz juice from sippy.

3:00-4:00   give 4oz bottle and lay down for naptime.

6:00-6:30   wake up from 2^nd nap(if nap was as short as 30-45min that’s ok) feed dinner meal of veggies and either yougurt or fruit for dessert(add baby cereal to thicken)

7:00-7:30   Bathtime

7:30-7:45   Last bottle before bed-8oz- if he dosen’t finish that’s ok.

8:00   Read him a book while eating or after he’s done than its bedtime!

If I need to go out and run errands. I usually do so right before a naptime(he’ll sleep in his carseat if he’s tired enough) or during the hours that he plays. But not in the middle of the times that he needs to nap or eat. Otherwise the end results are a cranky Josiah. J

 Notes of change:

So there you have it, my day of being a full time mommy, and I love every second of it!
