6months, 3 weeks, and 1 day

keeping to my word although truth be told i'm already over this writing everyday thing.


well conrad is napping. he takes 3-4 naps a day depending on how long he's down for at each napping juncture. all in all the kiddo sleeps about 14 hours a day, give or take a hour. his current nap is my favorite because it's the 2 hour snoozer and that means i have plenty of time to go catch a matinee or drive around recklessly without my seatbelt, though typically i spend it mopping the floor and emailing people and paying the bills and washing the dishes and mindlessly browsing for thisandthat on ebay. i no longer coddle or sing to conrad before his naps; this because jon and i are pretty sure it has some mystical effect on him waking up in the middle of night. thankfully he has a teddy bear that he loves and loves to wrestle with and gnaw on and in doing so he forgets all about why i'm not holding him and falls asleep instead in his teddy's embrace. lately he has been demanding- by means of thrusting his body back towards the crib in the direction of his teddy-that when i come to take him out of his crib i not forget his furry brown friend too.
