To catch up- The Braswell Family had an unbelievable great weekend. Here is how it went.
Friday, we ate dinner at Damn Good Pies. They have some of the best pizza in town. Ross did well at the restaurant. He joined 2 different tables throughout the course of dinner. He has never met a stranger! Off to bed. Ross got off his mattress 3 times, so it was back in the crib for him.
Saturday, we woke up around 7:00 and went for a walk. On our walk we got caught in the rain. Ross LOVED IT. He enjoyed getting wet and loved trying to catch the rain in his hands. After showers and getting dressed, we headed to Community Bakery for coffee and breakfast. Ross helped a total stranger play cards. We then went on a hunt for scooters. Leah really likes the idea of saving money on gas. We hit 3 different stores that carry scooters. The family unanimously chose the Vespa scooters. Ross even tried to climb up on them. We did let him sit on the seats of a few. Leftover pizza for lunch. Then it was nap time. But, Ross had other plans. He played in his bed for an hour with no sleep. This means that Leah slept and I listened to Ross play. Someday, I hope I can settle when he is not. So, we got up and went to a couple of furniture stores. We are looking for a dinning room table and chairs. Then, we picked up some chicken from Fresh Market. The 3 of us enjoyed an elegant dinner at home. Later in the evening, we interviewed a possible new nanny for Ross. Off to bed.
Sunday, I woke up at 6:00 and got Leah up. We got ready for a walk and then woke Ross up. He opened his eyes and the first word out of his mouth was walk. After our walk, we enjoyed a restful morning enjoying coffee and the newspaper. Off to St. Margaret's 9:00 service. We love our church. Ross got to play in the nursery. Then we drove home. Ross fell asleep in the car and slept in Leah's arms at home for an hour. He is still battling a fever bug. We think he is teething. Then it was lunch with Bebbie and Erin. Ross had a small meltdown, due to his fever coming back. A 2 hour nap was enjoyed by some. My mom called to see if Ross could come play. She had found a turtle and wanted him to see it. Leah got a haircut. After a couple of hours playing in Mimi and Papa's backyard it was time to go to the grocery store. Bebbie came over for dinner. And then Ross got to see Pia for the first time in 2 weeks. He is so glad his baby cousin is back from Texas. Ross went off to bed without a peep. Leah and I got to get some office work and calendar planning accomplished. (Legend: Bebbie= Leah's mom, Mimi and Papa= my parents, Pia= my brother Vincent's 6 month old named Sophia- Ross nicknamed her Pia).
It was a busy weekend, but one that has truly rejuvenated me. Time for the tired E-mama to get some sleep.
