Weekend Update 9/14

I'm trying something new with blogging about the weekends because, to be honest, I couldn't come up with a better title, and we usually shove a ton of stuff in that short amount of time. 

Sammy took Aaron to the park with him to play basketball so that I could have some time to myself to get some writing done. That was super lovely. When they got back, Aaron was scared of the ball though.
We went to Sammy's mom's company picnic. Aaron was very clingy to me when we first got there and wouldn't even let his grandparents hold him. Did that melt my heart a little bit? Yeah:) But he eventually warmed up and was okay with walking around. 
Sammy got to try hitting in a softball cage for the first time. He hit three balls total, and for having never played before, I think he did great!
In his new car seat, Aaron gets quiet a lot because he's often looking out at the world so it's hard to tell if he's asleep or not. I took a picture and he was so dang cute.
We went to Sammy's parents and Aaron had a ball playing with their bedroom door, crawling around the house, following grandpa to the bathroom, sitting with grandpa, and eating a whole slice of pizza. 

Daddy and Aaron got some snuggles in with his lovely crop top. 
Sammy's brother proposed in Vegas that day! We knew it was going to happen at lunch, but it was a late lunch and we were waiting by our phones the whole time for an update. 
On Sunday the Bears played the Broncos, and it was a very emotional game. Sammy was looking forward to putting Aaron in his onesie all week and watching the game with him. He liked sitting with Sammy.
But he wasn't sure about the onesie. 
He really, really wasn't sure about it. 

After another slice of pizza and two poopy diapers, he was a much happier baby. 

The Broncos got one point ahead of the Bears with 30 seconds left in the game and Sammy ripped his shirt off and started yelling about how he was never going to raise Aaron as a Bears fan and this always happens, etc. etc. But then somehow the Bears ended up winning in that last thirty seconds. It was a weird day.

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:)
