Well, it’s Monday morning and that means it’s time to look back on the weekend and remember all the fun we had.
Friday:
On Friday, L and the furries and I played choo-choos while B cooked dinner. I swear, choo-choos never get old for L. After a picnic dinner, (complete with s’mores bars), we finally got a chance to play outside a little bit, so we took total advantage. We were so tired of being stuck in the house and were glad to get outside for a bit. L did some driving while B and I enjoyed a nice walk. After we got home, we played in the backyard and B checked out the garden. We have so much stuff growing!! After L went to bed, B and I watched Limitless, which, uhh, I do not recommend. I hate movies that don’t really have an end to them. I want my movie plots to be wrapped up in a nice bow at the end so I never have to think about them again. B says bows are boring. He gave them movie a thumbs up.
Saturday:
Saturday started off with swimming lessons, which L was totally excited for. He claimed he wasn’t going to go underwater, but of course, he went under like 10 times. I was so proud. We came back home and played for awhile and then headed out to lunch (PotBelly’s) and to the mall. L kept heading back to the kids shoe section at Nordstrom, and all but said he wanted to try on shoes, so that’s what we did! I love that he loves Nordstrom (and shoes) just like his parents! After the mall we stopped by a kids event at a local store to let L blow off a little steam and then headed on to the grocery store. Somehow picking up a few things for dinner turned into a full on grocery shopping trip. L ate his weight in grapes and picked out some pretty flowers (we always let him pick out which ones to get) while we shopped. And I ran into some Towne Club “pop” that I used to drink when I was a kid! I didn’t even know they still made it. B grilled us a great dinner and we played outside before L’s bedtime. B and I spent the rest of the evening watching trashtastic tv (The 650 Pound Virgin and My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding) and doing computer stuff.
Sunday:
I don’t know what got into my boys on Sunday morning, but L slept in until 8am (WTF?) and then B offered to make me breakfast. He even heated up the syrup for me. Again, WTF? It was a good start to the day that’s for sure. I spent the rest of the morning reorganizing the basement storage room (that’s the before picture) and playing choo-choos with L. We pretty much played choo-choos ALL day. Sometimes in the basement, sometimes in the kitchen and sometimes in the playroom. I am all choo-choo’ed out. I’m pretty sure I have played choo-choos everyday for the last 2 years! I made dinner, including Sponge Bob edamame. After L’s bedtime, lit a candle, watched RHONJ (loves it) and did some blogging while B did his own thing.
It was another very fun weekend here and we are totally already looking forward to next weekend! Is it Friday yet?? What’d you do this weekend?
