Once I got to work Chris called me to let me know he had time to take Mccoy to the vet for his last round of puppy shots before he got called out. I anxiously awaited his follow up call to see how our furr baby's visit played out. Dr. Bonner said he was the picture of health and weighs in at a whopping....drom roll.....62lbs!! WHAT?! Good grief. Furr kid is only 14 weeks old and possibly the biggest baby I've ever seen. He hates storms like his mommy and tries to back into my pregnant non exsistant lap for comfort. He's still very much a puppy. I'm so happy and relieved that ALL our pets are good for a year and even more happy that Chris had enough time to take him. It's not fun taking pets to the vet with a toddler while pregnant. We would have to look like a circus coming in!
Chris got his call to head out to Memphis at 2:15, which means I would barely miss getting to see him off since my work schedule runs from 10-2. Sad face. Or so I thought. About an hour into his shift Chris text me to tell me that his train would be stopped at a local track for about 30 min or longer. This never happens. Super's face was priceless when I told him we were taking a little drive to see Daddy on the train. We hopped in the car and off we went to see Chris bear and the choo choo. When we pulled up Chris was getting off the train and Kal-el spotted him immediately. Wow he's got some lungs! "DADDY!!!" He was overcome with excitement. I pulled up and Chris walked over to the car and was able to hold Kal-el and talk for a little while. The trains engineers wife was also on her way with their 2 year old son. So sweet :) We sat and chatted briefly while we waited for the other train to pass and then it was time to go. NOT ok with Kal-el AT ALL. He cried so hard for Chris that I almost cried to. I was finally able to calm him down and we headed home for a dinner with Mom and Larry at Rosie's.
When we pulled back in the driveway they were already there waiting for us. Car seat in, ready to go! Kal-el was still a little fussy but Larry had the perfect fix. BUGS! A huge bag full of plastic bugs . A car ride would of been impossible without these crawly lifesavers! My child adores bugs. I'm terrifed of them. The next few years should be really interesting. As we made our way to the resturant we had to cross the same tracks where Chris's train was stopped. We pulled up just in time to see the train pull off for its journey west. Kal-el was precious and no longer upset. He waved and blew kisses to his daddy and yelled "Choo Choo Twain!" We had a pleasant car ride all the way to the resturant. I told you this was a great day.
Super sat in his seat and ate all of his food at Rosie's...so did his Mommy lol :) He didn't act up a single time. I was very proud of him. After dinner we rode around for a bit and looked at some houses. Mom and Larry are looking to buy after they get married in July. When we arrived back at home it was nearing Kal-el's bedtime but he still was not grumpy just very cuddly :) Just as we were about to call it a night and head upstairs to bed I noticed a package at the door. I open the door and brought it in. Super and I sat down to open it together. Sweet Logan was not forgotten today. Aunt Sandra had sent him an adorable baby chef outfit complete with a chefs hat..one of the cutest things I'd ever seen. We text our love and goodnight wishes to Daddy and off to bed we went. It's all the little things that count. What a beautiful Friday :)
Telling Daddy he's on his way to see him :)
It's Daddy!

Super is obviously more interested in chowing down than taking a picture :)
