shy boy.


Quick story about the man of the hour.. Mr. Leyton.  
and no, I haven't forgotten about the little baby in my belly.  he/she won't let me forget, crazy active thing.  another post :)

I've talked about this before, but Leyton doesn't do nursery.  at all.  The second we leave, he bursts out crying and doesn't stop hyperventilating until we come back, it's bad.  I feel horrible for the guy but  we keep trying..  we do like church and would really like to attend!  So, since moving to White Bear Lake, we thought we'd try again.  and... he made it!  2 weeks in a row!  We haven't been those shamed parents that head toward the nursery when our number flashes!  point for us. :)

But, week one was hilarious.  We got signed up, headed toward his nursery, pushed the clinging boy toward the volunteer, try to hold back tears of our own and headed toward the big people church.  We thoroughly  enjoyed the service but could barely make it through the final prayer before we bolted upstairs.  When we got to the door, we couldn't find him until we searched in the corner right next to the door.  There he was, puppy and paci in hand, not moving a muscle.  He made it, but just barely.  

Sure, we wish Leyton could practice his social skills with the other kids and not stand terrified in the corner, but no crying baby? ... we'll take it!
