Cobey enjoys our stuff.. so he gets his own versions of our stuff.

He has his own remote control, his own pillow, his own hat to chew and yesterday he got his own laptop.... (old one that doesn't work, obviously)
He loves to tippy-tap on the keyboard and when seeing Chris' (which, up until today, lived on the floor) he'd army crawl as fast as a blink over to it and smack it around. So he got his own, and it was HILARIOUS to hear Chris suddenly yell "NOOO! YOU HAVE YOUR OWN ONEEE!!!!!!!!!!" *laughs* And this is where the new icon comes from :D

Today was a funny day.. I did something for the first time and left Cobes with someone else for over an hour *gasp* I better get used to it.

We took him down to Chris' parents as they were giving us their old couches.. we arrived, put Cobey in his Jolly Jumper and he happily bounced, Grandma came out of the shower, Cobey took one look and SCREAMED!!!!!!! He's never reacted like that ever before :O
So Grandma gave him a cuddle, nope didn't calm him down... Chris took him back, he dove to me for a cuddle, then I passed him back to grandma and he was happy as Larry, they were besties!
Due to that, and the fact that she'll be looking after him for half the week, she looked after Cobey while Chris, his dad and I took the couches back to our place (1 hour 'round trip.. not including stopping, taking couches up stairs etc) He was a wee sweetheart apparently, didn't get upset, ate his pears, had a little bit of EBM, and showed off his "I'm going to get that remote!!!" skills, zipping along the carpet.

He passed out in the car on the way home, before we'd even reached the end of the street, little pumpkin!!

oooh isn't it so very hard? :/ When I left Ben with Mum to drive S to work when he was a few weeks old, I cried. Now...probably not so much as I have left him with Sherm quite a bit. I miss him horribly though. It's just not as sad anymore. And the OMGMUMMY! look on his face when I come "back" is awesome. :)

Yeah, it was weird.. I felt sad and like part of me was missing... I leave him with Chris a bit to go to the shops for milk.. but that was the longest time. I felt strangely at ease as well, I know he'll be in good hands in a couple of weeks.

Ah the old laptop thing is a fab idea! I have a ded one too, Jake might like it as he really likes to sit on my lap and bash the keyboard on this one and fling the mouse around.

If Jake is upset and won't calm down, one thing guaranteed to cheer him up is Adam's xbox 360 controller :p

I wonder if, when you go back to work you will enjoy having you time again? Aside from missing him, that is, which is always going to happen.

I think I will.. however I work with kids so it's not much *me* time (the drive to and from will be nice)
I think I'd prefer less work time still :( I would prefer to work 2.5 days and have cobey 4.5... not the other way around :(
