Bachelors

Amy took her class of students on an overnight field trip to the Hike Inn and left Gus here with me. It was Amy's first night away from Gus. She's been with him every night for the past 13 months! I figured we could step up and give her the opportunity to get away...even if it was only for a school-sponsored activity.

We played before his afternoon nap yesterday and afterwards we went to the TN Aquarium with a neighbor and his son. After we got home, we went to another neighbor's house for dinner and by the time we finished it was time for V to go to bed.

He woke up at 6:30 this morning. When I went in to get him, he seemed a little confused b/c Amy is almost always the one to get him out first thing in the morning. Gus ate several times before his first nap and then twice more before his second nap. (I'm amazed at how much that kid eats!) Then, I dropped him off at Kim's house and headed in for a half day of work. Amy picked him up on the way back into town.

Overall, I'd say that we definitely survived. That being said, we're glad to have Amy back!

When is my mom getting home?!?
