Hooray!...and big yay!

My mommy is home again! I felt like the world was standing still yesterday when I was trying to get home to Gabriel. Delayed flight, slow baggage claim, slow shuttle bus and of course traffic. It all went away when I walked in the door and Gabriel saw me and gave me that squeal! He was grinning from ear to ear and crawled over as fast as he could. It was past his bedtime so even though he really wanted to talk and play sleepiness was creeping in. I was just glad I got home in time to tuck him in. He woke up twice during the night, not crying..talking. I would go in and he would smile, almost as if he was checking to see if I was still there.

He slept in this morning (8AM), which was good since my mom and Jenacca said he had been getting earlier and earlier and napping less. All of that seems to be back on track today. Grandma and Jena did a great job while I was gone! I have no immediate plans to leave again but at least I know I can...and he can.



I decided to work from home and not go into the office...no way was I spending another day away! Here are some of our lunchtime adventures.

grabbing the remote of course!


grabbing a snack


pause to stand alone...


off to the kitchen..


trying to feed Rahja...


and into the cabinet...


He had a real interest in the doors and drawers today and how they work.








Time for cabinet locks I guess!
