A lovely weekend and tubes!

This weekend was GREAT! Nathan and I were saying last night - it felt like we really were able to relax, but also accomplished a lot around the house.

I'm going to start with Thursday though. Our church is pretty big and encourages us to be part of a small group. We have been going there over a year, but haven't joined in. Our neighbor invites to be part of one with them and some other couples in our area of town. Our first get together was on Thursday. I was nervous as I tend to me in new social situations, but it was actually great fun. We are going to meet twice a month at our house and I'm very much looking forward to the next get together. Logan did great as well. As we expected he sat on Nathan's lap for a while, but then all of a sudden he jumped off and started

Friday night I honestly don't recall what we did - I remember we made nachos for dinner, but that is about it. Must have been a pretty low key night. Oh and I remember that I kicked Nathan's snoring booty out of bed around 12:30 so we both could get some sleep. Logan woke up pretty early Saturday morning and he and I hung out upstairs for a bit to let Nathan sleep longer. Then we went down and surprised him with a nice big JUMP on the pull out couch. hehe... Daddy highly encouraged me to go back to sleep so I did! It was great!

The rest of the day was spent with a little laundry, some working in the yard, raking leaves, relaxing and playing and we had a play date with my friend Leah and her almost 3 year old son, Joe. It was a good time. We even turned the grill on for the first time this year and enjoyed some hot dogs because that was all the grill worthy stuff we had in the fridge.




Now that our family room is a functional space... YAY for furniture (we bought it off craigslist in January.) Nathan was able to play some video games in the afternoon. Logan thought it was great and wanted to help his daddy play the football video game. They were quite cute.

Sunday was church and then play time. I went to the Adventure Center (Logan's daycare) to decorate for the teacher appreciation week. We did a jungle theme and the place is crawling with monkeys and tigers and zebras. VERY cute! Nathan wrote out a to-do list in the morning and we were able to get it all accomplished and then some before bed. Got to love sitting with your hubby watching a show on the DVR while folding socks... romantic I know... :-)

This morning we got Logan up around 6:30 and headed to get his tubes put in. I was the most nervous of the bunch I think. Logan was a trooper. We didn't get him dressed - just changed his diapers and left him in his pajamas. We were only in the lobby about 15 minutes when the doctor came out and told us he did great and once he woke up they would call us back. That took another 10 or so minutes. He was pretty upset when we went back there. I think that was my least favorite part of the whole thing... the fact that we weren't there when he woke up from the anesthesia. But he calmed down pretty quick and we gave him some juice and a banana since he hadn't been allowed to eat and it was 8:15 at that point. 16 oz of juice and 1/2 a banana later we were out the door. That was A LOT of juice, but he was miserable and will probably only have milk the rest of today and tomorrow to average it all out.

Once we got home and he saw Grandma he climbed right over to her for some cuddles. When I called to check in on him about an hour ago she said he was running all over the place like nothing had happened this morning. I'm betting he'll take a nice nap too if he isn't asleep already.

Hope you all had a WONDERFUL weekend as well!
