Daddy Wednesday

The first Daddy Wednesday went really well. Spending time with your kid is a good feeling. Also, nobody got hurt.

When he's in a good mood, Little Man is a ton of fun. I was never really that excited by babies before we had one of our own (maybe other people's babies just aren't as interesting as ours), so I'm kinda surprised by how much I enjoy him. "Super fun happy baby time" is a blast.

The only thing I didn't get to do during the day that I wanted to do was take a shower. I had to wait until Jen got home.

It's also tough to find time in your day for healthy eating when you're a "single parent". Rather than sit down for a meal at some point, I found myself racing around and grabbing a snack whenever I could.

I think Daisy was glad to have me around, too. I'm sure she'd still like a little more attention, but I can tell things are getting easier for her because she's finally at the point where she can ignore Little Man when she's in the room with him. Little Man doesn't take up all her attention when they're together. Maybe he just gets a quick toe kiss instead of a full body sniffing.

I can't wait until I can take them both out in the back yard and play with them. Then they can tire each other out while I sit at watch. Hooray!
