Road to Recovery

Hey everyone!! I have had many of you tell me I needed to post, some of you had been checking in a realizing that I was slacking. Not much new here, we have been stuck in the house all week while Caleb healed from his surgery. He has done great, he does not like doing the drops in his ears, he screams the whole time and some days for an hour after. Why?? You might ask . . . I have no idea, you would think I was killing him. Other than that everything has been pretty smooth, he had a really rough dayFriday with fever and the whole bit. But has been great this weekend. Friday night I got to go to the movies to see Fools Gold it was really cute. Tomorrow is the highlight of our weekend we are taking the kids to the circus for the first time. Caleb is so excited!! He can't wait to see the elephants! Caleb asked tonight if the circus was next to where we saw elmo (keep in mind that was back in August) he said we have to go a long way tomorrow (it is downtown). He is so funny! It amazes me what comes out of his mouth. Today I was telling him that I woke up at 7:00 this morning to get ready for church and he looked at me as serious as he could be and said "well, go back to bed GIRL" it may have been one of those "you had to be there" moments but just think of that coming out of the mouth of a 3 year old to his mommy!! He has conquered putting a 50 piece puzzle together all by himself which amazes us!!! there have been times I would give him a piece and tell him to put it in a certain spot and he says "no mommy that doesn't go there" and of course he is right!! AMAZING!
Parker, I have to say, is the cutest little thing. Tonight he walked back and forth to Eric and I about 10 times so he is so close to walking, he finally got some confidence so it should not be long before he is off. I am really ready for that, this crawling stuff gets old!! We were at dinner last night and he got so upset he could not get down on the ground and crawl over to Caleb. I keep telling him if he started walking he could go everywhere and I wouldn't have to carry him all the time. At dinner tonight he sat at the table and we would say "GO DAWGS" and he would do the ruff ruff afterwards it was great! He can now tell you what the puppy says and he tries to tell you what the bear says!! To finish off the night he tried to say "go dawgs" of course being his proud mom I understood exactly what he was saying. Now if you were sitting at the table you may not have understood! :)
Well guys, until after the circus tomorrow this is it!! I will be sure to give you pictures of that one!!
