I'm a day behind :-(
This is one of my work weekends that happen 4 times a year. Luckily this is the last one in 2010 and I won't have to do it again until February 2011.
Jo came on Friday afternoon so she was there when JH woke-up and that made both of them very happy. While I worked and Da Da built walls in the basement Auntie Jo Jo and JH kept busy. She'll have to add comments if he said or did anything that was noteworthy.
Oakley hurt his paw in a terrible photo accident so I was taking care of her baby while Jo took care of ours. It was easier to have Oakley because he laid in my office and slept :-) In the other room all I can hear is JH saying "AUNTIE JO JO" in a booming voice. There was no doubt that they had a blast. In between meetings and getting some work done I went down and helped Da Da. I'm not sure I'm much of a help but I held the level a few times and cut some 2x4 when asked.
The evening was great because after JH went to sleep Jo, Rick, Oakley, and I all lounged in the living room and talked about our favorite subject...JH. Oakley didn't interject much :-P He was on my chair with me most of the evening and we were enjoying spending time together.
I've been away from JH less then 12 hours and I already miss him.
ReplyDeleteHe was laughing so hard because I was pretending one of his toys was a hat...I'd put it on my head and when it fell off I'd get all excited and throw it up in the air. As you know he does NOT bore easily so I'd say I did that little hat trick at least a 100 times and each time was like the first! He belly laughed from his little toes to the top of his head! Every so often I literally grabbed him and kissed his cheeks...his neck and his belly!!
This is such a special little person...He's in for big things in his life!!
As for Oakley....I went out and bought him a cone for his head...gauze's, antibiotic ointment and new socks! He's taking about 80 mg of asprin 3x a day and will start his antibiotic tomorrow. He's been good thru all this. It's breaking my heart that this pup hurt his paw...he has been amazing thru it all! I'll nurse him back to health...our poor little guy!
