missing daddy - day 6

Jace and I had a busy Monday. Our morning was much like any other. I really enjoy our morning routine. We get around slow. He is usually awake (and happy) around 7. I feed him a little then we play for about an hour. Then we have a proper breakfast. After cleaning up breakfast we read a couple stories and Jace takes his morning nap around 10. That nap is possibly my favorite part of our day. I have time to get dressed, make the bed, take a shower, organize for the rest of the day, make phone calls, and finish a cup of coffee. If Jace has a good morning nap we are both a lot happier for the rest of the day.

Today our afternoon was filled up with running around town. We stopped at the post office, library, and grocery store. We finally made it over to Palmer's house for our Monday evening family time. The kids get Jace wound up before bedtime. It is crazy but he seems to enjoy it. Tonight he crawled all over chasing Dustin and Alyssa. He impressed them with his speed. Everyone was trying to make Jace laugh so that they could see his new teeth. It was a rowdy time. Joel called several times to let me know what scores the dancers got on Dancing with the Stars (in Dallas he watched it an hour ahead of us). Wish he was here. He will be flying home on Wednesday. I'll be counting the hours until then.
