good afternoon or good morning not sure which...

So tomorrow Our llittle caleb will be two months old! How crazy is that. We are still adjusting to the whole new schedule. I am trying to figure out how to get some extra sleep ...between my work schedule, Michael's schedule, football, meetings, trips with the youth and fund raising. Just trying to find a few moments be him can tricky too.. So I am still trying to catch up on all my school stuff and keep up with what we are doing now....oh off to the races, it is time to eat and little man is letting me know he is ready any day now lady! ta-ta..

Boo Hoo......sniff....sniff....

So today was the first day of day care... a partial day. I was fine until Michael asked if i was ok or  boo hooing...then i lost it. It is a hard thing to  do especially when i realize my son will be in daycare and learning from other people instead of at home learning from mom or dad. I also realized the jobs we have do not allow us the luxury (isn't that crazy it's a luxury to raise your child yourself.) of raising our children. It also made me realize how much my mom and dad sacrificed to have a parent home with us. They gave up their time together....they worked 1st and 3rd shifts....youth ministers and teachers cannot do their job on a third shift or second shift schedule...so he is at day care laying in an unfamiliar crib, in a lot louder place as the kids run and play in the rooms around him. How sad. But all i have to do is look at this picture and it helps ease the heartache some. So just keep us in your thoughts and prayers the next few days, weeks....months.
ok another topic the dogs will be going through an adjustment today too. As they realize that I am not home all day to let them out whenever they want to go chase a squirrel. So we will hopefully start walking them too or should i say I will start walking them. They seem to be adjusting ok since the big dogs are gone, we shall see Molly is already trying to take over though. But it is going well with just the three land sharks living with us. We miss Banyan and Chateau though, hopefully they are enjoying the trip across country.
It was great to see my sister and her entire clan as they breezed through this coast and headed to the heartland.

Oh me oh my...

So things are going good here Caleb has gotten on schedule and off schedule. Sleep has come and gone. Our Grandmomma and Grandpoppa TN were here for the weekend to meet the new grandson. So it was a good weekend , we had fun spending time with them. So we are trying to get things ready preparing baby and mommy for the return to work. It will be a couple days of transition which I am not looking forward to, but it will all work out. So Caleb is starting to do some tracking of things with his eyes as well as following Mom or Dads voice. Well speaking of Dad he needs his computer...so ta ta for now love and hugs
