We're gonna miss our first Teacher's Institute Day on Monday...wait, I'M going to miss my first one, Dave only started going since he's been forced to with me. Anyways, we're going to Maui for the day for my gramma's funeral so that will be interesting. First two times Caleb did wonderfully on the plane, we'll see about this time now that he's mobile and wants to move non-stop. My mom will come back with us on Monday night...late flight, so Tuesday and the rest of the week should be interesting.

Caleb's been waking up earlier than usual lately.....well, since we've been on break. What the heck? Usually he's still knocked out when we leave the house at around 7. This week, he's waking up much earlier than that and insisting on being out of his crib. Tried to make him just cry this morning cuz I was hella tired, but he cried for like 25 minutes so I figured it was time to get his butt out of jail. Actually, Dave went to get him but he was in need of a mommy-fix so he was still cranky until I paid undivided attention to him.

We finished his Halloween costume yesterday...saw the idea in a Parenting magazine and thought that it was something I could do. Caleb's gonna be a little tamago sushi for his first Halloween. We'll see how that goes. Anyone know where we can get those Genki sushi hapi coats?? Then we can be a sushi family...lol.

My dad will be here for the weekend...he hasn't seen Caleb since July and I hope the weekend goes smoothly. It should be fine...hopefully Dave isn't forced to drink too much. Thankfully I can't be forced to drink so it's all good.

Okay, gotta get ready and figure out Dave's lunch since I won't be home for lunch. Dave is going to enjoy his day of no harassment while he watches ESPN and goes on the computer to incessantly look at his fantasy football stuff and play bejeweled. He'll probably get in a few games of baseball too...his idea of a heavenly day. Hopefully Caleb takes a nice, long nap for him so he can play.
