Sundays

More than one video so you can see the place I'm able to go with Jack that allows me to forget about all that I am missing in his life every day and live in the moment. I love you Jack and look forwards to Sundays which hasn't happened since I had to return to work...it used to be the day before I had to go 5 days without you...now it is a great time with you!

Going to the Chapel...

And their going to get married.

Congrats to Uncle Eric and Britney on their engagement!

Outtakes:

Divine Weekend

Saturday the Sullivans came over in the afternoon. The men kept the babies while Robin and I fought the cold and crazy Mama's to buy our babies some stuff at a bargain. On the way home we picked up pizza for dinner.

Surely I must have said something funny to have Nick and Willow both laughing so hard.
Jack on the other hand was starved and not up for conversation. Had to build up energy for the continued fun after dinner.
Even though Bebe had told me they were getting Jack a tricycle for his birthday I couldn't pass up this steal. This is a $50 tricycle, in perfect condition, and only $15. Sorry Papa and Bebe...this one can be for your house. Jack jumped on and tried to take off. Still working on how to make it go!

Willow was a pro...jumped on her new tricycle and took off!

Space was a problem, but it didn't keep them from riding all around the house. Too cute!

Sunday morning we went to Gymboree. The class was small but Jack had a BLAST. I have some priceless videos I'll try to upload this week. So glad to be back at Gymboree! Jack loves, loves his teacher Ms. Jessica and I couldn't think of a better way to spend my Sunday mornings. We had lunch at Subway (compliments of gift cards) then headed home for our nap.

Jack would not go to sleep even though I had to do everything in my power to keep him up in the car. I told Nick to give him some space and when we walked out of our room a bit later from our "nap" this is where Jack was. He set himself up a nice pad didn't he?!?! Nick put the pillows in case he fell off...which he did once...and rolled off the pillows onto the floor. A few tears later and he was back on the couch and out like Mom in her room next door.

Another bargain buy for Jack was this mini grill to add to his kitchen area. Since Nick was grilling we thought we'd let him play with it outside tonight. It talks, lights up, and even has it's own ketchup and mustard dispensor.

Then after a man's meal of steak, shrimp, and baked potatoes it was off to his playroom for some toast and tea in his new "English set" I bought him at the consignment sale. It was new in box and a steal as well so we don't care that it is pink. The boy loves to cook!

Not this weekend, but last

Not this past Saturday, but last the Ashley and Nathan came over to play before lunch.

"Wow Jack, this is cool. Did you have this last time I came over?"
"Who knows...Mom is always spending my college money buying new stuff. I'm happy with an empty toilet paper roll and water bottle."

After the boys played a bit we headed to Jason's Deli for lunch. Angela and her Mom met us too. Can you tell what Jack's favorite part of the meal was?

We had planned to let the boys run around the little tikes town in Allen but it was super windy so we walked down the strip center hand in hand to Petco. Free and with heat!

"Now you see NaeNae this one is called Nemo. I used to watch him til I experienced the thrill of CARS!"

"Let's go back to the fish Jack. I've seen your Mom's scar...those things bite!"

"Today was the best Jack. I miss hanging out with you. Do you think it will be forever til we see each other again?"

"There, There little buddy...we won't let our parents neglect our friendships like this again."

"OK Jack, let's hold them to it!"
