Thursday

Not much exciting happened today. I went to Jo-anns at lunch to buy some spray adhesive. I have a couple of projects I want to do for Canon using it. I have never worked with it before but Bill has so I know he will help me ;0) I also took some stuff back to Target. It was a blah day because of the weather. Canon went on a field trip to Caesarland with the kids and loved it though. I guess Brooke needed to get out. I think I would too. I told her she could have Caesarland but the first trip to the zoo is mine! I can not wait until it is warm so we can go there. It should be lots of fun for him.

He has been taking naps from like 7-10 and then getting up and eating and then going back to bed. Poor little guy he gets all tuckered out!

Friday

I went to work for 2 hours this morning. Bill called me around 7:30 and said that Brooke was sick so she would not be able to watch Canon today and Bill had a day ahead of him so I would need to watch him. No problem ;0) I love spending the day with him! I picked him up at Bill's work because he needed to go in earlier to get some stuff done for a meeting. I guess all of the girls in the office held Canon and played with him. When I got there he was sacked and was taking a nap. I decided that we were going to Toys R Us. They were having a special deal on Fisher-Price toys. You buy one for more than $20 and then you get one up the value of 19.99 for free. I wanted the drop and roar dinosaur for Canon so I decided to see if they had it. They sure did! I got that and then this cement mixer truck that dumps and spins and comes with 3 balls to play with. It was also buy any movie and get the second one half off. I got Canon Cars and Peter Pan. He was a lucky little boy today. He was so good too. He slept until we got into Toys R Us and then we woke up. It was like he knew he was in a toy store ;0)

We then went to Kohls and this is where he was like allright mom I'm done. I bought my socks and we went home. He fell asleep again so I let him sleep and I pumped and we waited for dad to get home. He got home and we packed and drove up north to my parents. It was not a bad drive. I tried to sleep but mostly I just rested in the back with Canon. We got up there around 8 something and then we fed Canon and he played with grandma and grandpa for a little while and then we swaddled him up and he went to bed.

Saturday

More time to visit with grandma and grandpa and play. Grandma made a big old turkey dinner and kept hinting that Canon wanted turkey and potatoes and everything he is not allowed to have yet. I need to keep my eye on these grandmas! My brother came up north and saw us and couldn't believe how big Canon has gotten. I know, sniff sniff. We left there around 5:00 and then went to Bill's parent’s house.

We got there and played and visited. Grandma & Grandpa watched Canon so Bill, me, Katie, Don (her boyfriend), and Ike could go out. We went out to see Wild Hogz and even had popcorn and pop. It was such a nice time and nice to get out.

Sunday

We played and visited and then went to Great Grandma Brugger’s for Easter. We had ham and grandma’s famous noodles. I can’t wait till Canon can have some of her noodles because they are the best. Shane and Bailey had an Easter egg hunt and Canon will be able to participate next year. He was content sleeping and being held.

We left Coleman around 5 something and got into Berkley a little before 8. We fed Canon and gave him a bath and then played a little and then put him to bed.

Monday

Bill took Canon to the pediatrician to check his ears and they are good. She said that we could start him on veggies anytime after his surgery too. I can NOT wait. We are going to start with sweet potatoes a couple of days after. He weighed 15 lbs 9 ozs today so he gained an oz in like a week or so.

When they got home Bill was trying to get him to play with his new cement mixer toy but once Canon found out that he couldn’t fit the balls in his mouth he was not impressed. Bill resorted back to the little stuffed giraffe that he likes to chew on and gave him that :0)

What a long day!!! I went and got pizza for dinner because neither one of us felt like cooking so we did that and we mostly slept and laid around. Canon went down for a nap around 7 or so and didn’t wake up until 1:00. He was a tired little guy. When he woke up he ate very little and Bill changed his soaked diaper and he went back to bed.

Tuesday

I missed the little guy all day today. I didn’t see him much Monday and didn’t see him at all this morning. We came home today and took a nap until dad got home. We then got up and ate some bottle and played. I brought down his Easter basket finally and he got to play with some new toys. I got this chicken that’s a finger puppet and he really likes that. I think it is a close second to his giraffe. I read him all 3 books he got and then snuggled and cuddled. I also fed him his oatmeal tonight and he took SO long. It was like he wanted it and then he didn’t but I kept trying. He is SO funny!

While we were changing him tonight he was trying to put his feet in his mouth and suck on them. It was cute watching that and we tried to capture it digitally but were not able to. I hope he does it more because it’s the cutest thing to watch. He was also talking up a storm like usual and his goos and gaas are getting more frequent and distinct.

Goodbye until tomorrow…
