All in a Day's Work

Saturday was a busy day for the work horse, Mr. CW.  Saturday morning he had to help Daddy measure and work on the current basement project.  'Current project' being replacing our inside door to our garage and all of the drywall around it that got ruined by moisture last winter.   A project indeed.

After Caden was done helping Jared, we left so that Jared could get more done without us around (Imagine that :)).  I went to brunch with my lovely one and only cousin Christina who was in town (yay!) and my sis.  While I was with them, Caden hung out with Grammy and Grandpa.  And, they went ahead and broke some child labor laws (ha!) and had him shoveling snow the whole time.  Dad has a little shovel in his car for emergencies.  I think it looks like a miniature shovel.  He gave it to Caden and threw snow on the driveway so he could shovel it off.  And Caden had a blast.  For over an hour.  And threw a fit when he had to stop and leave with me.

Then it was time for Caden to go down for what would be one of his longest naps (3.5 hours), complete with Jared and I sneaking off to the ER so he could get a few stitches in his finger he cut with a saw during Caden's nap :(. My mom snuck over to sit with CW while we went to the hospital....no, we didn't leave our son home alone. 
Caden got up from his nap and had to get back to work supervising Daddy and Grandad who were putting the door in (even with stitches you can't leave a huge opening from your house to garage with no door in winter :)), vaccum with Mommy, and entertain the dogs. 

After supper it was time for a bath and bed.  A fella who works that hard was beat and ready for some shut-eye.  And a Daddy who has to work on a big project all day and have a trip to the ER was ready for shut-eye, too :). 

I think this mommy should do the same :).
