Grandpa's Coming to Town

     Tomorrow Grandpa is coming to town!  He'll be helping Daddy on the bread route until Thanksgiving Day and we're so excited!  His job specifically is to do the stuffing.  He's done it for a number of years now and already knows what his job is.  And of course, he'll get to spend plenty of time with Marcus.  Every time we ask who's coming tomorrow he screams, "Grandpa!!!"  It's way cute. 
     So today, Marcus and I are trying to get our house in order, put all the laundry away, and make sure Grandpa's "suite" is ready downstairs.  Even though I've been VERY sick with this pregnancy, the past few days Marcus has been great!  He's played well by himself and overall has started to obey more.  We went through a few weeks where Mark and I couldn't figure out WHAT was going on in his little boy's head.  When we're home he's going pee-pee on his own and the new thing is that he's standing up, "like Daddy!" he says.  He's very impressed with himself over this new feat.  We're still working on the whole pooping in the potty thing but again - by Christmas is the goal. :) 
     Nonetheless, here are a few pictures to hold you over until the weekend.

Sweet little boy

Last week, Marcus crawled in bed with me before I got up & went back to sleep!

I got up, got ready, and made all kinds of noise.  He was OUT!

Taking his nap - one hand in his pants, one hand cuddling his camo frog
