A Fun Filled Weekend

So we had a really busy weekend, but a really fun weekend. Blake and I spent Friday morning at the Children's Museum with Harker and his mommy. We had a really fun time, Blake and Harker "shopped" at the BiLo grocery store, played at "grandma's farm", built things with blocks in the construction zone and then got soaking wet at the water table. The boys had a super fun time! Friday night we met our good friends, the Pittmans, downtown for pizza and then to the Boo In the Zoo. Blake, Kate and Jake had such a good time together walking around the zoo picking up treats at the "treat stop." Blake decided to be Lighting McQueen, and I was simply thrilled he would even put a costume on. Saturday morning Josh and I took Blake to see Sesame Street Live, Blake loved it and Josh and I are just thankful it was not one on those "I wish we hadn't moments." Sunday was another successful trip to church, this time Blake did not cry once except one tiny time when he was in big group, we think this is a HUGE step and pray he will continue to feel safe and comfortable and eventually look forward to time there. Sunday night I had a baby shower for a dear friend at my house and Blake was a ham, he loved having everyone here and had a great time entertaining all of us. At this moment we are all tucked into bed and pray for a good nights rest. Ahh.....a fun filled weekend indeed.

"Wash our hands please," Blake does not like to have dirty hands.

A Photographer in the Making???

Blake loves to get a hold of my camera, this morning was no different, but today I was totally impressed by what kind of shots he got, here are a couple...

"my golf cart"

"marley"

"my truck"

For 2 years old, I'd say these are pretty good!

One of Those Days

So today has been "one of those days," we started the day at 4:45, yes, that is correct 4:45. Not sure if something was hurting, was he cold or hot, was he hungry or did he just want his mommy? I don't know.... but it was something and we didn't go back to sleep until 12:30 this afternoon!! WOW...what a LOOOOONG morning it has been! I will have to say he is a trooper, he managed to go run the errands mommy needed to do without acting as tired as he was...YEA! However, trying to get him ready to run errands was the harder task at hand, first we had to poop, and yes of coarse this was AFTER he was fully dressed shoes and all, to go to the store. So when we came in to change that I had to change the full outfit because it was soaking week because he had gone outside with the dogs!! So I left him in his room with a fresh diaper and went to do something else real quick and this is how I found him when I got back...

YES DiDi...those are the boots he would never put on when I wanted him too!!! Talk about God telling you to slow down and take it easier...at that point I had to just sit down and have a good laugh!

Here are a few more cute pictures in "the boots."
