dave is in slo today. working the cal poly job fair. i admit. a lil jealous. he gets to drive through those gorgeous mountains, and walk through our college campus, be surrounded by college students for a day. sounds nice. he went for work to recruit college grads for pac sci. it's so nice that we live only a couple hours away from cal poly! so being the spoiled princess that i am...sweet hubby wasn't here to wake up with our morning lark (caleb) this morning (6:30am. hello hi). dave was out the door at 5:40! so caleb got to lay on my bed with me until 7. because these days i have the hardest time getting up before then! and to think i used to wake up and swim or work out everyday at 6:30am! one day i might do that again...maybe once i'm not waking up with my lil nursling....and then being the spoiled princess i am no hubby here for my mid-day break at lunch time!. thank goodness he'll be returning by dinner time. he is really such a huge help and such a wonderful and welcome distraction for us at lunch time and before he goes to work and after work too!. the boys love their daddy time. and i love my 'me' time. running in the evening, catching a few extra zzz's in the am, or a quick escape to the back bedroom to fold some laundry at noon time! next week will be an even longer day. he'll be back doing interviews with cal poly grads for pac sci. and i get to hear all about it ;) for some reason i really find the interviews and the people fascinating! it's a cool perk he gets to do every year for work now. but the boys and i will be flying solo until bedtime :( that is why i am so grateful for our car now. this afternoon we'll probably hit up the library and a park. and then, we'll be waiting here. open arms for our hero to come home (he gets embarrassed when i call him that, but it's true). so now you can really see me for the spoiled princess that i am. or maybe you'll see that i am beyond blessed by my hubby. we're a good team ;) and when he is away we really do miss him and feel his absence. that is why weekends are so great. but i do love these moments shared with my lil boys at home :) we have our fun when dad's not around! so only a couple pics today. and two videos of the boys playing before their naps!
what a hug might look like between a toddler and a baby. up close and personal, thankfully no tears. pre-nap time hugs.
a couple videos of the boys at play. unfortunately it wasn't captured on camera, but caleb was saying 'here you go lucas' and handing him blocks and then smiling so big. i love it when he engages lucas in play and then lucas smiles and wiggles his whole body in response. lately lucas has really into banging things, you might notice it in the video. i just love watching these boys together!
i left the room for a couple minutes and this is what i found when i returned....(caleb loves the eric some of our carle books...{brown bear.., polar bear.., panda bear.. especially,} the repitition is great for this age)
polar bear, polar bear, what do you see?
(this just cracks me up. caleb loves chimming in when we read it together so when i found him just reading to himself and lucas i couldn't help but grab the camera and take a video since he didn't know i was behind him :) towards the end he's flipping through to find the flamingo page, flamingo is his fav.
half way through the week! hurray!
