Calum's Morning with Dad

Well, Calum has attended his first political meeting at the tender age of two months. Poor, poor boy. Reports indicate that he worked his charm around the room and is well on his way to a promising career. That is, of course, until the thought of milk and the absence of his mom distracted him. Don took Calum to a meeting on Friday morning while I was off writing an exam for an employee position that I'm not entirely sure I want. In any case, the written exam was for three hours and Calum had to go with Don all morning. He did well, mostly. At 12pm I received a text message from Don asking where I was and arrangements were quickly made for him and Calum to meet me at my office. It seems someone does not like his bottle. Ever since, I've had a hungry little boy that seems to want to eat and eat and eat. Friday night he made very sure he got his milk when he wanted it. This does not bode well for our transition next month.

In other news, Calum also had his first visit to a restaurant. Don and I had lunch with his parents yesterday and Calum was very well behaved [ie. he slept through it all]. I'm sorry to report that I still have to work on the eating with one hand thing and Calum had a few drips on his clothes and crumbs in his hair when we were done. Calum is also getting used to his baths. That is of course, because I now join him in the "big tub" and let him splash me all he wants. As long as I've got a good grip he really seems to like it now.

Opps, Calum and Don have just come downstairs to report that someone is hungry again. Don really gets nervous when Calum starts trying to suck on his clothes. I secretly think it is a little funny. Hope you all enjoy your long weekend. Look for new pictures next week.
