Home Alone

Bye Grandma Bob and Lynda - I love you!

Thank you Grandma Lynda for spending two weeks helping to take care of Calla. I believe everyone involved had a good time! Grandpa Bob (GB) arrived on Wednesday and got to spend three days with Grandma Lynda (GL) and Calla. GB took a break from hanging out with Calla while he was here and GB and I celebrated his birthday by attending the best upset of the season when the Beavers beat the #1 USC Trojans in football last week. Then on Friday we all went up to Portland for the evening and Courtney and I went to our friends Nikki and Mike's wedding. GB and GL did their first eveing babysitting gig and hung out with Calla at the hotel. It was a good date night out for mom and dad and the grandparents got to spend their final evening with Calla all to themselves. They even put her to bed, which was a first non-parental-putting-to-bed event!!

Now it is just us (Northwest Shaff Clan) for the first time in a month and I am going to be a stay at home dad part time for the next three months! Calla and I are going to have lots of fun. So I will be posting more on the experiences of daddy day care in the future. I am sure that will be entertaining at times.
We hope all is well with everyone as the summer season wanes into fall.
All smiles with Grandma and Grandpa Shaff

Calla could not stop laughing at Grandpa Bob.

I loved every minute of my time in Corvallis with Calla! OK...I enjoyed Scott and Courtney, too. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you NW Shaffs! I love you all. GL
