FAMILY DAY!
We had our first "family day" on Monday. It got off to a bit of a slow start as Leo had a very wakeful night of sleep. Up every hour all night long. Maybe it's because he just learned to roll over! Life is getting very exciting. We spent the day with Leo's grandparents and great- grandparents on Farren's side. Such a lucky boy to have all this extended family around.
And my sister and her husband and kids are coming out for their March Break in a few weeks. Very exciting.
I have been painting a bit and really aching to have a studio someday. Its hard to get everything out and then have to clean it all up.. especially with a little rolling 4 month old boy around. Luckily, he seems to enjoy watching me work. Sometimes if I am in the middle of working and he needs to be held I get paint all over his clothes. Must get him some "painting clothes" as well. I can't wait till he can paint with me!
In 5 weeks I go back to work. I start rehearsals for a fantastic musical called The Putnam County Spelling Bee. I am afraid I really underestimated how difficult it would be to be away from my boy! I have only ever been apart from him for 3 hours.. and that nearly destroyed me. I need to schedule some "practice" sessions. I just love him so much! I don't want to be apart from him! It's going to be hard.
Something else that Leo and I have discovered is the public library.
LIBRARIES ARE THE BEST! We went to lap-time at the Stanley Milner Library here in Edmonton... and although Leo slept through most of it..when he woke up he was in heaven! I can't wait to go again. It was really great to be around other babies and mothers. Plus it's FREE! The price is right I say!
Well.. that's all for now. Trying trying trying to be better about this blog! So far so good!
