Our weekend seemed slow as it was passing but looking back it was a big blur. On
Friday we hung around the house, I made Tyler a family album photo book so that he would recognize some of his family when we move back. He is very interested in naming the folks he already knows but getting him to pay attention past: Grandma, Grandpa, Grandma, Grandpa, Mew- maw, Mew-maw, Pa-pa, Susu, Connie, Uncle Tim...and he sort of falls off. We have plenty of time to practice, and he is a fast learner so we should be good all the way to Aunt Angie by August.
Anyway later in the day we had a BBQ to go to. It was nice because we had a balcony view of the fireworks#1 that you couldn't wish for. That was a late night like 11pm. Phew and ya know what Tyler doesn't really like fireworks.
On
Saturday we recovered from Friday and chilled out most the day. Thomas rested in the morning and then we switched and I napped in the afternoon. After a little rest we went to the fireworks on base. Thank goodness we found some friends for Tyler or he would not have survived the wait 'til the booms came. Now he really does not like fireworks. That was another 11pm night.
So
Sunday I could not just stay home..nope not me! So we went out for doughnuts and to the farmers market. The market is close to one of Tyler's playgrounds, and being the dictator that he is he refused to calm down until the park was in the plans. So to the park we went and played for awhile until it was time to change diapers. Home we went but did we stay...no! Off to the mall we went to check out the great sales! Thomas got a couple of shirt and Tyler measured a size up on his shoes so he got a new pair of kicks. They have monster trucks and flashing lights, who knew Stride Rite was so cool and hip... not really but Tyler thinks they are cool and that is all that matters.
Today we will spend the rest of the day getting ready for our trip home. Get ready, get ready , get ready!
