To finish getting caught up...

Okay, so the other night when I had to abruptly end Fred also got to meet a new friend, Susan's daughter Sarah. It's so cool because I've known them for so many years, I just love it when Fred meets people that have been so important for so many years!

Here are some pictures of the BEST onesie EVER. I love it! For those of you who don't know what it is from, please go read! It was given to me by my dear friend Amber, and her extremely talented mom made it for Fred!

Yesterday we had our last Lunch Bunch lunch of the summer. What a blast it has been this summer getting together with different people for lunch!

(This was after lunch, we were supposed to go to Dave & Busters, but Fred had a freak out attack, and we had to leave)

Today was Fred and my last day together for the summer. I'm having such a hard time knowing that I won't be able to spend the day with just my cuddlebug and me. I've been so fortunate to have this time off with him, and I know that I am leaving him with the next best thing (his Grammy), but still. None of those words mean anything to me. Everyone that I've spoken with has something positive to say, but I really really can't hear it. I'm going crazy trying to figure out some huge idea that I can patent and sell and be able to stay home with him forever. :-)

For lunch we met Fred's Dad for our last lunch of the summer with him. I felt all weepy because I've really enjoyed being able to load the baby up and go see him. It's going to be a real bummer this school year not working with him. That's yet another reason why I don't know for sure if I've made the right decision by changing schools. :-/

Then Fred and I went to the old house and worked on cleaning out my old bedroom some more. The downstairs of this house looks like a disaster area. That's beside the point though. Fred got to have some fun with his Uncle Phillip. He's going back to school, and we are all very bummed about it. Boo.

Tonight we went to dinner for Fred's Grandpa's birthday (that is on Saturday). It was a wonderful time, and Fred was very pleased to spend some time with his Grandpa.

I have to pause again and be so thankful for being able to be with Fred for the last almost 4 months. I am very very lucky to have been able to spend all of this time with him and experience his smiles and laughs and rolling over for the first time. I'm just so sad to be spending the majority of his days away from him. Ugh. Cuddlebug.

I TOTOALLY know how you feel!! It is really hard- I am dreading going back as well and trying to cherish each day. If you think of a brilliant patent let me in on it!!
