Spring Break... so far...

It is nice to get a break from my full time job!  I wish I was one of those families that went away going to somewhere warm and tropical.  Alas, my week has been spent working.  I am working on my photography job.  I actually am blessed with an amazing daycare that I feel comfortable dropping Caleb off at so I can get some work done.  {Although I did have to fight off guilt so far each day.} Here is a breakdown of how my week has gone...

Monday-
Caleb was up at 7:30 for some serious play time!  We had a lot of fun.  I put him down for a nap just after ten and he slept til a bit after noon.  I dropped him off at daycare around 1.  When I got back home around 1:30, I edited pictures.  I got 1.5 sessions done today while Caleb either napped or was at daycare.  I picked him up just before 5 and we had a great evening together.  He is all about staying up late these days so I think we both went to bed just after 10.

Tuesday-

I wanted to get more done today so I dropped him off before his first nap.  I predominantly organized things and prepared papers for this weekend's upcoming easter mini session I'm running.  I also watched some of Orphan Black Season 2- this show is so bad but addicting!  The day went quick and I was off to get Caleb and meet Grandmom (Rose) for dinner.

Wed-

Lisa drove 3 hours to come visit.  We hung out here, I cooked some meals. We went shopping on the impossible mission of finding cute boy clothes (why do they have 5 billion options for girls and just two for boys?) and the even more impossible mission of getting items for an upcoming puppy-themed birthday party I am throwing. We came back and hung out and ate dinner- yay freezer meals!
I think he was overwhelmed by all this food- Homemade meatballs, spaghetti and garlic bread!

Thursday-
Caleb started waking at 8 and to my delight that was what woke me up. {I seriously can't wait til summer break when this is the norm.}  I had time to shower and get dressed before he was up.  We played and ate and daddy took him to daycare at 11.  I have been working basically non-stop on photography or cleaning.  Our garage smells like spray paint and my upstairs smells like bleach.

Tomorrow I may figure out something fun for Caleb and I to do but I don't know what that will be just yet.

Clementine goodness

I chopped up a clementine and Caleb was so in to them that I just had to go get my camera!  This boy is a fan!!

gorgeous spring day!

We soaked up the rays of sunshine today!  It was perfect outside, 62 degrees and sunny!  Caleb rode in his stroller for the first time in the seat instead of the carrier!  He was pleased as could be too!  His little feet were just kicking!

Feeling so big and ready to go!



It was a good trip! Mommy and daddy walked for nearly 45 minutes!
