Labor Day Weekend

We had a greatly needed Labor Day Weekend. Sammy worked late the whole week before and it completely threw off Aaron's schedule. Thankfully he made it home most nights just in time to put Aaron to bed. On Saturday morning of Labor Day Weekend, Aaron wanted nothing but his daddy. He and Sammy went to the park to play basketball while I stayed home and did some writing which I was so thankful for. Afterwards, the two of them cuddled on the couch. 
We spent most of Saturday getting errands done which was nice. We usually pack in so many things on the weekends, it's hard to get that kind of stuff done. 
There was lots of playing.
More snuggles with daddy.

And then he snuggled up with me while daddy made some dinner and we watched Little Baby Bum together. It's so funny to me how happy that show makes him. 
On Sunday Sammy helped me teach my primary class and Aaron was fascinated watching all the kids. Then we headed to Sammy's parents for dinner and it was delicious. Aaron had a lot of fun eating. He had some fideo, and then he stole a whole slice of a tomato to eat. I've tried to give him tomato before but he's made a look of actual disgust, so it was cool to see. He's growing up and changing so quickly. 

On Monday we went to a friend's BBQ. Aaron had fun crawling around a new house for a bit, but then he was pretty cranky. He ate some guacamole and tried watermelon which he loved. I was thankful that everyone was so understanding of when we needed to leave and his nap schedule and such. We came home and Aaron napped while we watched shows together. It was a relaxing fun weekend as a family and we loved it.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
