Movin' On Up: The past month...

Last month we went to Monroe for thanksgiving. We had a great time! We had lunch with Mamie and Dude and then went and had dinner with Peppy and Nali. Jude had lots of fun playing with everyone then got to spend the week with Mamie and Dude so mama could study for the licensing exam. It was TOUGH staying away from him for an entire week but he had a blast!

I quit my job on November 22nd after unforunate changes in office morale and expectancies. I have been staying at home with Jude since and plan to start a new job back at Baylor (YAY!!) on January 9. Jude is a HANDFUL and hats off to women who stay at home permanently full time. It's so much fun but it sure is exhausting!

Mamie had a conference in Orlando last week and because I've been off work they called me and told me to go meet them there for a few days. They called me at noon and Jude and I were on a flight at 8 that night. I call it teaching Jude a lesson in spontaneity! Jude has flown with Dude before but I was so nervous about taking him to fly commercial by myself. Jude did GREAT! He slept all the way there. On the way back he slept for about two hours of the first flight then the last 45 minutes took some quick maneuvering because he was restless. I'd say for a 3 hour flight though he behaved himself quite well. We had such a good time playing with Dude and Jude made his first trip to Disney World!
