New Grass...New Drum

This was what Gabe and I were up to this morning. We have new grass. It looks great but now we also need to do some maintenance on the old grass. It's now clear how bad we've been at taking care of it! We had it all done, including a trip to Home Depot to pick up sod and look at their kitchen remodel stuff, before noon. That's what happens when we're up and ready to get to work before 8am. Oh, the days of sleeping in on Saturday mornings are long gone.

When we ran errands this afternoon we couldn't resist picking out a toy drum for Levi at Target. He's reached the stage where he loves making noise. Especially hitting the tray on his highchair at dinner time. We figured he'd love having something that actually made music when he banged on it. So, here's a picture...mostly for the grandparents out there!
Well, Gabe leaves for Florida in the wee hours of the morning...again. This will be the third trip he's made in six weeks! I'm so sick of it. Luckily they're quick trips. But it makes me sad for him to be gone, even for a short time since we see so little of Levi as it is. This little guy is only going to be a baby once and I hate Gabe missing out. Even if it's only for 48 hours at a time. Having to work gets in the way of everything. Speaking of work...I have 8 more weeks myself!
