Well, today was much more uneventful than yesterday. Gabe and I stayed home until it was time to take him to Angie's so I could go on my interview. For lunch I tried giving him zucchini I pureed. This was the second day trying the zucchini and I don't think he really likes it. He would take it, but not open his mouth very wide, and it was pretty runny (I thickened it a little with cereal), and it would just run all down his chin. So it may be a no-go for the zucchini, but I made a lot, so I'll keep it in the freezer and maybe try it again a little later. :-)
He got two pretty good naps today before we left, which was good because he didn't sleep for the almost 4 hours he was at Angie's but he had fun taking a walk, bouncing in the exersaucer and just playing. He fell asleep on the way home and went right to bed. :-)
My interview went well. It was with a 6th grade teacher from the school who was very friendly, laid back and talkative. I think she did more talking than I did, which I didn't mind. She seemed to like my answers that I did get to give and the next step would be interviewing with a director, or maybe a phone interview with the department head. I guess they have a lot of openings and I'm being considered for either a middle school or high school math position.
Gabe has some stacking cups that he LOVES to play with. I give them to him usually after he eats when he's still in his high chair and he loves spreading them out and whacking them off the tray. :-) When we were on vacation in Hilton Head last week, my aunt Mitzi was holding him and teaching him to stack the cups together and he did a pretty good job! Tim and I have continued to do that with him and he is getting really good at putting the cups inside each other! He will even pick a cup up upside down, turn it around and put it in the stack. I tried to get him doing it on camera today but of course he was being silly and not cooperating. Hopefully I'll capture it soon and be able to show off our little genius. :-) I don't know if this is something "advanced" or not, but I think it's pretty cool, so thanks Mitzi for starting it!
Well, I'm pretty exhausted so that's about all I have for now. Oh, Tim and the youth group made it to Minnesota safely today. Be praying for them as they start their training (for 3 days) and then start serving the people of Minneapolis.
Good night!
