We finally broke out the paints on his easel on Sunday. He started off very neat and precise. We made sure he didn't stay that way and got him good and messy.
Tuesday was Tommy's last day at Paula's house. The tears flowed, from Paula. She was so sad to see him go. We're sad to go too but I'm sure we'll be back next fall with the next kid.
Wednesday we took Tommy's first day off and went to the Oakland Zoo to visit Auntie Amy and her giraffes. Thankfully, Papa also had the day off and he came along as Mommy was not very able to chase Tommy around or hike up and down all the hills at the Oakland Zoo. This was Papa's first time feeding the giraffes, Tommy's third time but he was a little squeamish this time regarding Bengazi's long tongue!
Thursday was Thanksgiving, of course, and Tommy slept through most of dinner. This is his new thing. Refuse to take a nap all day and then crash out around 4pm. Great... In fairness he and I were totally sick with a cold, which Nana also turned up with!
Nana scored this adorable picture with Gemma (probably capturing the exact moment Tommy contaminated her with a cold... I've yet to hear) Today is Gemma's 16th birthday and Tommy was wishing her a Happy Birthday!
I'm sure the coming week will be just as busy for Tommy as he starts hanging out with Nana on a daily basis. I go back to the doctor on Monday, but last week she said she had a hunch the baby would be early, possibly the end of this coming week. So we'll see...

I love the easle! Contemplating getting N one for Xmas but not sure where it would live. So you will be home with both of them during your maternity leave? Go you! I took the easy way out. Also couldn't lose Nikos' spot at daycare so that was a good excuse. Anxiously awaiting the update of baby #2s arrival!
