So I'm back to work. Ugh. I dragged myself back to my classroom on the Monday before Thanksgiving and readied myself for a flurry of craziness. I was not disappointed! Caleb got to spend the three days of Thanksgiving week at home with Daddy, and then we headed up to Pelican Rapids for turkey day. It was baptism by fire for JJ, but he and Caleb did really well - so well, it was a little like they didn't need me . . . ! : ) We went to a lighted parade on Friday night (yes, a parade!) and spent time at several coffee shops throughout the weekend. Overall, it was great to have a short week when going back to the drama of the classroom. Now only three and a half weeks until Christmas break!!!!
I can't believe how fast time is flying - Caleb is growing so much! He's rolled over (front to back) during the hated tummy time, can sit up in his Bumbo, and kicks around like a champ. He's also discovered that he can screech, so he gets revved up and lets loose with his screams quite often. It's really funny! He's really loving all the Christmas lights that are starting to show up all over - he just stares at them. Is that normal? : )
Caleb's new favorite thing from Tuesday to Thursday is hanging out with Grandma! Mom started her shift as "Mary Poppins" this week, and wow, is it nice! He's been to the mall, Caribou, and various other locations on field trips with Grandma. The best part is, between Mom and JJ, no bundling up and going out in subzero weather every morning this winter, and Caleb can stay in his jammies all day if he manages to keep them clean . . . God certainly answers prayer in ways we can never imagine!
