Moving update

Quick update before I go to bed. Talked to Mike a little after 8 tonight and he had taken the freeway exit in Phoenix to get to his dad's house. He drove to Stockton, CA yesterday before finding a hotel for the night, then was back on the road at 6:30 this morning. The moving truck will be parked at his dad's for the night and Blackjack and Mike will be in another hotel. Joy's cat doesn't play well with others so they're getting their own room. Hopefully the hotel has a hot tub and Mike can try to ease the backache he has after driving for 12+ hours for 2 days. His plan is to work with his dad in the morning, hopefully get done quickly, go to the apartment and get our keys, go pick up the moving truck, back to the apartment and unload. Sometime in the unloading stage, he'll go back to the hotel and pick up Blackjack. Poor kitty has had a traumatic 3 days. Monday had way too many people in her house for her comfort plus all her cool hiding spots inbetween boxes and stuff in the living room were taken out, stayed the night at a strange house, then on the road for 2 very long days. That had to add about 20 kitty years to her life.

Peanut is doing well. I think he can tell Mike hasn't been here. Tonight when my dad got home and started talking, Peanut perked up and was looking around. And when I talk to Mike on the phone, Peanut looks around trying to find his dad. It's cute but in a sad way. We both really miss him. 8 days and 1 1/2 hour then we'll see him again.

Peanut now has a 2nd food added to his diet. In addition of his rice cereal, he now loves to eat squash. And squash really does make poop turn a uber nasty color of yellowish-green that I haven't seen before. I personally thing it needs some seasoning, but Peanut doesn't know that so he's loving it. One or 2 more days of squash then we'll add something new in. Could be peaches, bananas, or green beans. I'm not sure which yet. Hell, I'm still figuring out how much to give him and am wondering if there's a spot he doesn't get it no matter how hard I try to keep his hands away from his face while eating.

No pictures today. :( I don't have my camera usb cord and Mom doesn't have a memory stick drive thingy on her computer. I'm off to bed. I've quickly learned babies don't sleep as well in a new place as they do at home so I'm exhausted.....still.
