Today was the first day Susanne would have to get back in the car that was running on empty because she had to work. She had managed to take her own car that Moppy was currently using on the other days she had to go in. Today, she didn't have that option so she was stuck with risking the chance that she might not make it to a gas station in time. Luckily, Scott was home to save the day if need be. Susanne made it to the gas station closest to her home. A major load was lifted off of her shoulders once she had a full tank again.
Scott was going to be in charge of Paxton all day while Susanne was at work. Scott was excited at the progress that Paxton had made since the last time he saw him. He was entertained by Paxton's new obsession with purposely batting at toys. He was still doing a remarkable job with reaching out and grabbing whatever was in front of him. Paxton got a special treat today. His daddy spent some time massaging the various tight regions of his body. The two worst spots included his neck and his hamstrings. Scott was able to feel improvement after just a few minutes of massaging them.
During Paxton's nap time, Scott worked on the final stages of his dissertation. The end was so close now, Scott could taste it. He was impressed with how much he was able to get done in such a short time. Productive days were so uplifting.
Moppy was Susanne's last client of the day. They were hoping with this set up that it would help Susanne to be able to get out of there faster to get home to her boys. Unfortunately, the plan backfired. Moppy and Susanne started talking and before they knew it, almost an hour had passed by. It was so interesting that they see each other usually three days a week and they could still find endless amounts of stuff to converse about. Girls will be girls.
Susanne finally got home. Scott and Paxton greeted her at the door. Susanne couldn't think of anything better in the whole world because she had it all right in front of her. Susanne read Paxton a new book that Moppy got him for his bedtime story. It was a book full of Mother Goose rhymes. This brought back many wonderful childhood memories for Susanne. Once they were finished with the book, it was off to bed for sweet baby Paxton. He was definitely tuckered out from his day with his daddy. He would sleep well tonight.
Scott and Susanne decided to try one of the meals that Aunt Kerry and Uncle Nick had purchased for them through "Let's Dish". The dinner they choose for the evening included a well marinated steak with noodles on the side. They were more than impressed with the end result. It was fantastic and they ate every last bit. They couldn't wait to delve into the other meals that were still in their freezer.
