I have been looking forward to this weekend since I went back to work. Why? Because I haven't had a full weekend off since I was on maternity leave! We didn't really have anything special planned, but that is okay :)
Friday, Connor and I did a little shopping (I think it's obvious that I like to shop). We went to Hobby Lobby and the mall. He was so good for me, which was great because I was running on 4 hours of sleep.

We got home at about 4:30. I rushed to get both Connor and I ready for dinner. We had plans to meet some friends at On The Border for one of the girls birthdays. Aaron got home just in time, thank goodness.
We like plaid shirts in this family
Someone was very unhappy
Connor and Daddy match
After a very yummy dinner, some of our friends came over to our house. Connor was so good and went straight to bed. We talked for awhile and they left by 11:30. Aaron and I went to bed and we all slept until 10 the next morning. I am so happy that Connor likes to sleep as much as we do.
Aaron and Connor had some father/son bonding while I got ready. They watched some cartoons on the laptop. Both were very interested as you can see.
We had to run a few errands. I needed to go to my favorite cloth diaper store, Bumbledoo, to buy a couple more nighttime diapers. While we were there, we found these cute bibs. They are the same brand as our favorite burp cloths and balnkets, Aden + Anais.

Kawaii 'Goodnight Heavy Wetters' are my favorite nighttime diaper
After shopping at Bumbledoo, we ate lunch and then went to Target and Babies R Us. Connor started to get fussy as soon as we were leaving our last store. It was a good thing we were going home. Turns out, all he needed was to get out of his carseat and stretch a little.
Sitting outside is one of his favorite things to do....

Saturday night we got Connor in bed by 9, but he woke up every 3 hours to eat. It was definitely not like him. Aaron and I took turns waking up with him. We all woke up by about 9 on Sunday morning. Aaron and I cooked breakfast (It was so good). Connor played on his play mat while we cooked.
Aaron put his keys around his wrist so they would make noise when he moved... great idea dad!

After breakfast, Connor took a nap, I started washing laundry, and Aaron went to get his haircut. I was so happy when Aaron came home with my favorite cookies and muffins from the store.

Once Connor woke up from his nap, we practiced tummy time and sitting up in his bumbo. He didn't really care to do either.
Aaron picked up Chinese takeout... my favorite! After we ate, Connor became extra fussy. He had been spitting up a bit more than normal throughout the day which made us think his tummy was upset. He felt a little warm to me, so we took his temperature and it was 99.8. Our poor boy was running a low grade fever. We gave him a bath in hopes that it would make him feel better and help him sleep. After his bath we gave him a bottle and put him straight to bed. We wanted to start reading him a book before bed, but tonight wasn't the night. He was too upset and sleepy. Maybe on my next night off!
I loved every minute of my weekend with my boys. I enjoy them even more now that I am working again and have to work every other Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I can't wait for my next weekend off!
