Weekend Recap

Had a great family weekend! We had no plans, except swim lessons on Sunday, it was great! To wake up when we wanted and do what we wanted, when we wanted. I decided that I needed to go to the post office, so asked Mr. if he wanted to take a walk with me to the post office (it's about 2 miles away). Off we went...


Baby Fox wanted to walk...but after about 10 minutes, I said, it's going to take us forever if we let him walk the whole way. I bribed him with some graham crackers to get into the stroller...gotta do what you gotta do, right?

After the post office, it was about lunch time so we decided to head to In and Out, and since we were walking and I needed some things from the grocery store, I suggested we stop at Trader Joe's. On the way to TJ's we saw this guy:

 It was just sitting there, unattended asking to be sat in. So we did. Then quickly ran away before anyone saw.

After we got home, we realized it was a 3 hour excursion, but so much fun, and we were all tired. I actually feel asleep sitting up on the couch for an hour. When I woke up I realized how late it was and got busy making dinner for some friends that just had a baby. On the menu? Homemade mac and cheese, salad and brownies. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the mac and cheese, everyone dug in before I had a chance to take a picture. I did however take a picture of the most important part of the meal.


We got to spend some quaility time with friends and love on their newest little addition.


I accidentally made Baby Fox's swim lesson for a little earlier than normal, not realizing we had the time change, suffice to say, Baby Fox was not ready to get up, but was a champ and did awesome at swim lessons, we were worried he wouldn't want to swim, but when it comes to getting in the pool, he's always game.


After swim lessons, we decided to eat lunch and then head to the park. It was slightly breezy, so we thought it was be a good day to fly a kite.

 

Lesson of the day? Mr. and I really don't know how to fly a kite well, but Baby Fox thought it was great, and that's all that really matters, he had a blast!



And what's going to the park without a little playground action?




I had a little mini heart attack every time Mr. and Baby Fox swung like this, but Baby Fox seemed to be having fun, so I tried not to look.

After nap time, Baby Fox and Mr. went outside to do a little remote control car driving...


And some rock orgainizing...I can just imagine what Baby Fox is thinking here, "mom why are you making me look at you, I have more important things to do"


And to cap off our weekend? I made bacon fried rice for dinner...so good, I highly recommend it! When Baby Fox came into the house after he was done playing outside, he could smell dinner and I asked him if he liked the smell and his response? "DELICIOUS!" I have no idea where he learned that word, but it was too funny.


Loving having extra sun later in the evening, now we can actually go outside and play instead of being cooped up in the house after work. Love it! Hope you all had a great weekend too!

Come back tomorrow for the reason why I've been MIA with my blogging lately. I promise you won't regret what I've been up to!
