E.A.S.Y.

During the first few weeks of Violet's life, I read the book 'The Baby Whisperer'. Members of my online message board raved about it and a few friends highy recommended it - so how could I possiby enter motherhood without reading it?! To be honest, the only valuable take-away was the author's recommendation to put your infant on an E.A.S.Y. program/schedule. This means that throughout the day your baby should Eat, be At play, Sleep, repeat. The Y stands for 'your time' - meaning mom should have time for herself to nap, read, relax (hmmm...). Here is our interpretation of the E.A.S.Y. program:

Eat - Often

Bathe - Less often

(considered 'At play' - go figure) Play - Frequently
Sleep - Barely

This is Violet during her nap time yesterday.
My time - working ;)

And Repeat...

Life is good
