A day filled with lots of snuggles and naps

Today has been a day filled with lots of snuggles and naps on the couch...Dylan and I had a long night last night...my asthma flared up last night and well Dylan was awake most of the night...so today is a sleepy lazy day for both of us...I get a little agitated at times with so much down time...but I just remind myself that this is a special time that we will never get back....so for the most part I cherish all of our time together....he is snuggled close under my arm as I write this....Monday he starts daycare I call it daycare but it is at a home with a handful of children ....I have been having a hard time with the thought of taking him to his sitter...but I talked to her today...and she made me feel so much better....she seems to be a very caring and kind and is very excited about having Dylan....we have been talking with her since I think around March....he is going to be going 4 to 5 days a week from 9-12 or there about...this will allow me to get back to work more consistently...I think 3 hours is a ok amount of time to be away from Mom or Dad...and I think it will be good for Collin and I to have a little me time...we have started a evening routine for Dylan...with the highlight being his nightly bath...my understanding is that babies really don't need to be bathed everyday...in fact I am sure there are some articles out there that say its probably not a good idea...but I don't care...because Dylan loves his bath time...and it is such a wonderful relaxing time for both of us...no fancy bath tub here...he goes in the kitchen sink but he does have this pretty cool little table thing and pad that he lays on that is emerged in the water with his head elevated...he loves it...no crying...no kicking...just lots of coos and yawns....we call it Dylan spa time...he gets washed and then massaged and he loves the warm water...its a great way to wind down the evening for all of us....well with that I am going to call it a blog....hopefully we will have a more restful night tonight...I have a open house tomorrow and have some chores that need tending to....until then
