3 Day Weekend!

I am so excited for my three day weekend!  Today Caedon and I are playing around the house since it is cloudy and around 60 degrees.  We may go outside for 20 minutes or so later.  We are also going to Michaels later today with my sister Megan to look for the final piece of her wedding invitations.  So excited, I can't wait to start putting them together!  I can't decide if I should make supper tonight or if we should eat out.  We are eating/grilling with friends here tomorrow night, very excited for that too!!!!!

I thought about going to the zoo tomorrow during the day, but it looks like it might rain :(  Maybe we will get Caedon a haircut instead.  I think I will call my Dad's cousin Moni Hart to see if she works the weekends.  It would be neat to have her cut Caedon's hair!  I know, for those of you who know I have been holding out on the haircut, I finally gave in!!

Caedon has four favorite things this month:
1.Turning on and off light switches (although sometimes he points to a light switch, we go over to it, then he points to another one around the corner, we go over to it, then he points to a third, etc.  and they never get turned on)
2.Opening and closing all the doors in the house (often closing himself in and he is unable to get out - and then he gets upset!)
3.Playing outside (mostly swinging, but also slides, sandbox, and sometimes even playing with the basketballs which makes mommy happy!h h)
4.Sitting on the very very top of the couch to look out the window at the dogs playing in the backyard (he will be playing on the floor, hear a dog bark, make a surprised face and run over to the couch to crawl all the way up and see the dogs, then turn and look at us again with a surprised face like, "Do you see what I see?!?")

I also have one of my new favorite Caedon stories to tell:
Wednesday I worked the late shift, so Caedon and I went outside to play on the beautiful morning.  I put his coat on, and then looked by the door for his shoes (where they normally  are).  I didn't see them, so I went to the living room to see if they were in there.  No luck.  Caedon was following me, and I turned around and looked at him and said, "Caedon, I can't find your shoes.  Where are your shoes?"  He said, "SSHH," then turned from the living room, went to the kitchen, and came back with his shoes, holding them out to me!!!  I couldn't believe it!  For one, I didn't know he could understand what I was saying, and second, he kind of said the word 'shoe'!!!!!!  I didn't know if it was a fluke or not, so the next moring as Chase was getting ready for work in our bedroom I told him what had happened.  Caedon was in there with us, and Chase said, "Caedon, where are your shoes, bring me your shoes!"  And our little smartie left the bedroom, went to the kitchen, and brought Chase his shoes!  He did it again later in the day for Aunt Megan, too.  And I heard him say "SSHH" a few more times when we were talking about shoes.  This little one just amazes me every day!!

Right now Caedon is taking a bath while I type, chewing on duckies head.  Whenever he hears the water running in the bathroom, he tries to put his bath toys in the tub, even if Chase and I are just going to take a shower.

Maybe I will type more on my new job later.  One interesting point: A Newton urgent care clinic had the DEA, FBI, Drug Task Force, Office of Investigations, and local and state police (like 50 cars) show up on Tuesday (no explanation given yet), so I have been worried out of my mind that they are going to come visit my pharmacy!!  Ahhhh!!!!!  Here is the DSM Register link to the story: http://www.desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2011104070345

Oh yeah, I'm getting a baby belly :)  Finally.
