Weekend Update & 10 Months
I love weekends like this one. Where it’s spent in togetherness.
On Friday Michael took the kids to a play, out to lunch, and then he went to get his hair (well, all of them) cut. We munched on leftovers for dinner, and we watched Weeds and Californication after the kids went to bed.
Saturday afternoon was spent with friends. Michael made a pot of white beans, cabbage, and corn bread. There was some football tossing, movie watching, light-sabre playing, bike riding, bath taking, and much humorous talking. It’s so refreshing to spend time with family and friends! After our friends left for the night we got the kids tucked in and watched a movie. Well, we started with one, shut if off, turned on another, and I’m sad to say that we’ll never get those two hours back.
It was also my grandmother’s birthday and we chatted with her for a while. We also talked to Michael’s mom. Then, after the evening was over, my mom called and we talked for a while
The baby popped a tooth - FINALLY! What’s odd is that it’s on the top? All the other kids popped bottom teeth first.
This weekend he’s done some new things, for his 10 month mark.
- Pointing at things he wants or sees
- Waving at people
- Humming the Thomas the Tank Engine song (yes, for real, and I can’t wait to catch it on video)
- Clapping “yay”, all the time
- Sleeping much better (thankyouthankyouthankyou)
- Getting up on his knees in the pack-n-play; it’s only a matter of time that he figures out how to stand on his own in there
Hmmmm…what else? We’ve had some bike crashes this weekend, too. One bike crash involved a flat tire. The kids are really enjoying our neighborhood. As I type, the girl is outside playing, and has been playing almost all day.
I have way too much laundry to finish, and way too many dishes to put up and reload into the dishwasher. But, it’s Sunday…it’s my day of rest!!

I hope you really do get to rest a little. It sounds like your life is full of fun and adventure. congratulations on the tooth!!
Thanks Serina. My back is feeling the fun and adventure, too. It would help if I was 50lbs in the negative, too.
My Dad says that about his hair cuts! Or, he’ll say he’s going to the barber to get his ears lowered!
WOW… what a weekend! I got tired just reading about it. Way to go on the teeth… AND the sleep! :)
I LOVE weekends like that! Glad you had a great one.
And the milestones are so awesome. I love for that stuff with Braden.
Do you ever NOT have way too much laundry? If so.. tell me your secret, because it’s always coming out of my ears….
LC: The only time I don’t have laundry up the wazoo is when I purposely do a load every other day. The other cool thing is that our laundry is located upstairs by all the bedrooms. I just hate dealing with folding and putting away. I’ve enlisted my daughter to do the folding as part of her ” ” chores ” “.
Your blog name made me want to come and look. I enjoyed it. We had beans this week too – and cornbread.

That does sound like a nice weekend. I wish I could say the same for mine.
