A Typical Day

Here's a typical day at the Sennet household. Caleb still loves drinking his milk and likes for his sippy cup to be filled with ice-cold milk. Right when we get home, I change out of my work clothes and we settle down on the couch and have some quiet milk drinking time. Behind me would be the stacks of laundry typical of the workweek.....

At the Park

Caleb loves to go to the park....there's one just a few minutes away....although it's still hot out there so I usually can only manage about an hour before I'm asking him whether we can go home or not. His favourite part is still the swings....he insists on getting 'blue' on the swings and giving him a push before I put him in his own and he just giggles away when he's swinging....it's so sweet.

I see a Monster

Caleb's favourite book right now is about Monsters.

"I see a Monster hairy and red....Where is he hiding?"...and he'll say "Under the Bed!" (which IS the next line in the book...he's practically got it memorized) He knows all the answers to each of the different pages.

And end of the book, it has a little mirror and he growls into it like he's a little monster....it's so cute!

We've also started a reward chart. Stickers for 1) Cleaning Up 2) Reading a Book 3) Potty 1 and 4) Potty 2....there are lots of stickers in the first two categories...and none for the last two....no potty action yet.

Durham Bulls game

Last Friday, we went to the Durham Bulls game (vs Richmond Braves) for a bioMerieux sponsered event. Caleb had a blast seeing people and eating ballpark food. The game was packed full of people and for $8/ticket (regular price) the cost of going really depends on the food you consume on premises. The food was surprisingly yummy....we had philly cheesesteak, fully loaded nachos, an icee, cotton candy, hotdogs, popcorn....yeah, we loaded up.
Maybe when Forrest and Michelle get here next week, we'll have to go to a game...

Joe calls in sick...

So.....one of my co-workers (Joe) had a big birthday this past weekend. He was kind've bummed yesterday since his dept. forgot and he didn't get his cake and card.....so Lukey went and decorated his cubicle overnight and wrapped it like a huge present....I brought in my gooey butter cake.....Faye brought in chips and assorted snacks....his department ordered cupcakes for today....and then....

Joe calls in sick.

So.....we divvied up the cake (between our depts) and took a picture to send him to let him know what he missed. :P

Family Portraits

When my mom and sister were here, we went to JC Penny to take some family photos since we were a bit overdue for ours anyways. They turned out so great that I think we will be doing this every time they come down.

The only person missing is my Dad....:( Maybe next time he'll be able to visit too.

Rattler's Football Game

A couple of us went to watch Lukey play last weekend. He plays for the Rattlers (http://www.trianglerattlers.net) and Caleb had a ball watching the game...er...the cheerleaders...he was just so mesmerized by their 'dancing'....(and I put that in quotations on purpose) :)

He also is in awe of Lisa....here he is with his hand on her leg....;) I don't know who taught him that. Definately not me!

Daddy & Caleb

Here's a pic of my two cuties watching a football game.

Aren't they the cutest??!! ;)
