Looks like we made it!

Two weeks back to work down, and I get the perfect gift of a day with my son! (Now if only it could happen every two weeks!) We're having the absolute BEST day! I can't believe how amazing he is. Every day he gets stronger, smarter, and more adorable! Right now, he sitting in his exersaucer thing and looking at the baby in the mirror. He's such a happy little bug! He took one tiny nap so far, and other than that, we've been just playing.

Every stage is better, they say, and even though I couldn't imagine enjoying him more than when he was first born, he's getting to be really FUN! And I know it will keep getting better. It's tough to only have weekends with him, because we're too BUSY, you know? There's always so much to do that just spending time together seems like a luxury. That's why today is so magical. It would be just as good if Jonny could be here, but he just couldn't take another day off. (He has President's Day off to spend all alone with the boy!)

Jonathan stayed home with me this past Wednesday. I was a sick pup! (If you want to get a giggle, check out Jon's blog for a dead-on representation of how we spent our most magical moments that day.) I'm not sure he even meant to stay home. He took Caleb to school, and hit the grocery store for some Gatorade and bananas for me since I wasn't keeping anything on my tummy. When he got back, he hooked me up with some drink in bed, and got sidetracked with the gigantic mess I made. NOT COOL! (But the first time he's had to clean up after me, so it was bound to happen someday!)

Anyway, I made it back to work on Thursday and Friday, but Friday night was really rough on me. Saturday morning made it clear just how rough it was. I had left a full day of Caleb's meals UNREFRIGERATED. Oy vey! That one hurt. But God will provide ~ he's done tougher stuff!

In light of all the blecho, it makes today with Caleb that much more special. I was so weak last week that I didn't ever feel very good. Even though I'm still having mild tummy issues, it's good to feel good, and have some time with my boy! Which brings me to this point: my boy is ceasing to enjoy being without me. Gotta jet!
