A day in the life of a 2 month old...

From Violet's perspective...

5:00 AM : Time to wake up! Lady...Sir...Helloooo!!! (The lady wakes up and holds me for an hour or so because she's trying to train me to sleep until 6 AM, like a good baby. I love this time because we get to cuddle and I get to snooze another hour in her warm arms.)
6:00 AM: I see a huge boob coming at me!! Ahhh, now I am full. Time to go back to sleep.
6:20 AM: How dare you interrupt my sleep!!!  Why are you putting me on this table and taking off my diaper? Actually, this is pretty nice, it was getting pretty heavy.  Is there a reason you're saying....foooo fooo foo?  What does this all mean??
9:00 AM: Wow, has it been 3 hours already? Time flies when you're sleeping. I guess I will eat some more before starting my day.
9:15 AM : Time to play! Usually the one that calls himself daddy leaves for the day and the lady (says she is mommy) plays with me in my gym or bouncer. Sometimes we watch the DVRed Housewives of New York or New Jersey. Man, I can't decide who is nuttier: Kelly from NY or Danielle from NJ.
10:30ish : I have been up for over an hour...this is exhausting! Time for another nap!
12:01 PM: I demand to be fed!  What is this nonsense!  It's been hours!!!  I can't tell time yet, but pretty sure it's been three hours and one minute.
12: 15 PM: I am back on what these guys call a 'changing table'.  It's not so bad here.  I like to laugh and smile while the lady makes that funny face and changes my diaper.
12: 20 PM: Lady Mommy and I play some more!  Auntie Vika gave us these cool black and white flashcards, so I have been watching them very intently as mommy explains what each thing is.  I know what a cup of coffee looks like now!  Very, very important according to this mommy person.
1:00 PM: Hey, lady...why are you strapping me into this seat?? What is happening?  Where are we going?  Ohhh, this ride is bumpy!  Makes me sleeeeepppy....
I wake up from time to time and see this mommy character using my stroller as her own personal shopping cart. How rude!  Sometimes she buys all these funky cheeses and meats and the other day she even bought something called Beef Jerky for this daddy person.  She must really love him because it looks like the stuff in my diaper.
3:00 PM:  I am still asleep but I open my eyes from time to time to give mommy a warning that she better get her ass home now and feed me!
3: 15 PM:  Finally, we eat! The supply seems to be getting low.  Maybe mom should listen to grandma and drink some tea with milk!
3:30 PM: She takes my diaper off again and this time I decided to pee on her to teach her a lesson to NEVER, EVER, EVER be late with my feedings again. 
3: 35 PM:  I am being put into this stroller contraption again, luckily this time we're just going to the patio.  Mommy reads and I look around or drift in and out of sleep. She also keeps checking this thing she calls the 'blueberry' which has some program on it called 'mybook' or 'facespace' or something of the sort.
5: 30 PM: We are inside and I sleep while mommy is on the internet talking to her buddies.
6:30 PM: Yummy, yummy in my tummy.  I can tell mommy had sushi last night....tasty!!!
6:45 PM:  This is what mommy calls my 'up' time.  We play more games and wait for daddy to come home.
7: 30 PM:  Daddy is home!!! Yippy!  Sometimes I smile when he comes home but sometimes I make him work for that smile!  Who does he think he is leaving mommy home all day alone like that!?!?! She must miss him.
8:00 PM: Bath time!  This is my favorite.  I wait for it all day long. Daddy puts lots of bubbles in the tub and sometimes I make more of my own.  There are times I eat the soap, but it doesn't taste as good as mommy's milk. 
8:20 PM: Me, daddy and mommy all hang out together and daddy tells me about this thing he calls 'work'.
9: 30 PM: Man, what a day!  I am exhausted.  I will eat this one last time before going to sleep for the night...
9: 45 PM: It's dark in here.  I am alone.  I hear those two in the other room eating (probably that disgusting beef jerky) and laughing and watching movies.  Why do I have to go to bed?!?!?!?  Maybe I will scream a few times to get them to come in and give me my binky.  Once they walk in here, I will give them a big toothless smile to show them that I MEAN BUSINESS! 
10: 00 PM: Ok, I am tired of this game.  Time to sleep...
