A Day in the Life of a 6-Month Old Rosier

  • Sometime between 4:30 and 6:00 a.m., we wake up, drink a bottle, and go back to sleep.
  • Sometime between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m., we begin babbling in bed.
  • 5 minutes later, we begin fussing in bed.
  • 5 minutes later, we begin screaming in bed.
  • 1 second later, Mom usually gets us out of bed.
  • For the next 15 minutes, we sit in my bouncer in the bathroom while Mom takes a shower.
  • Then we watch Mom get ready for the day.
  • After that, we get our diapers changed and pick out our clothes for the day.
  • Next, we play on the floor with ALL of our toys for about 15 minutes.
  • A little later, we each eat a bottle (it's probably only around 9 a.m. by now).
  • For the next couple of hours, we like to alternate between sitting in our toy car and "walking" around the living room, playing on the floor with ALL of our toys, and jumping in the doorway jumper while listening to Mom or Dad or both of them sing "Do-Re-Mi" from The Sound of Music. For some reason, it's the only song that calms us both down.
  • Then we get diapers changed and possibly clothes too.
  • We each eat a bottle after that.
  • We usually then play with Dad or Mom on the floor. Then the sequence of playing in our car, the floor, and the doorway jumper is repeated about 4 more times in between each feeding with 1-2 more naps thrown in for good measure.
  • Near the end of the day, we eat this mushy stuff. We've liked some of it so far. We think we're trying peas tonight.
  • Lastly, we go to sleep between 8 and 9 p.m.
