Crazy, right? Times flies, especially when you are living one lonnnng day that never really seems to end. Hello, sleep deprivation! Haha! But, of course, this sweet boy is all worth it. I love him so much.

After breakfast, Mal and I took Q to the pediatrician for his one-month check-up. Everything went well, and the little dude is healthy and growing like a weed!

After Q’s appointment, we headed home and a short while later, my sister, Matthew, and my mom came over to hang out.

SNACK

I cracked open a bag of Sunshine Edamame Blend from my friends at CVS/pharmacy to share with my family.

Everyone loved it, and we polished off the bag in a matter of minutes!

The rest of the afternoon whizzed by””playing with Matthew while staying one step ahead of him (our house is totally baby-proofed now) and feeding/burping/changing Q totally consumed me. I can’t believe how quickly the hours passed!

Everyone wanted to say hello to Q! Haha!

Murphy is the best babysitter, and I love that he’s starting to get curious about Q. He actually wants to be around him now instead of peacing out whenever he cries.

Murphy even supervised “tummy time” this afternoon. He’s such a good big brother.

SNACK

Before I knew it, my family was heading home and my stomach was growling like crazy, so I broke into a bag of trail mix and practically ate the entire thing. I never ate lunch, so I was famished!

DINNER

After that, I did a few things around the house, took Murphy for a walk, and then made dinner, which was Trader Joe’s Tofu Edamame Nuggets with Sweet Potato Wedges and ketchup.

DESSERT

Toasted coconut almonds + dark chocolate chunks x 5. I was really digging the chocolate tonight!
