Mommy and Jordan's Day to Hang Out!

Woo-hoo for Friday! Our baby-sitter took today off so that she could go out of town for a long weekend, I think to visit family. Anyway, since we don't really have any kind of back-up childcare, that meant I just HAD to sign out for the day and stay home with him (you like how that works?)!

We started off a little rough, as he was crying and whining for a while and I was worried that I might regret this day...

Then it was like he hit a switch. I don't know what it is about this boy, but oh, how I LOVE him!

"EEE!" Since he doesn't say S or CH, that's what he says for "Cheese!" CUTE!!!

We rode on my bike to a big park that's a couple neighborhoods away (which means it was probably a good 8-10 miles total of riding)! He played and played. It wasn't even a big park, but he just kept going up and down the slide, up and down the slide, anywhere he could RUN. I think he could have done this for hours if I hadn't made him leave so we could eat some lunch! We had Mac & Cheese with some fruit for lunch, and then we played upstairs for a while. We wrestled (consisting of him jumping on me and me throwing him back onto the floor, just for him to get back up and jump on me again). At 1:30 it was time for him to lay down and get some rest.

Meggan will be home around 4:00 from her first week of kindergarten! She has done so great and made such a wonderful transition back into the all day, every day swing of things!!! Sure, she is tired in the evenings, but she's just done so awesome - and we're so very proud of her! What a year she's going to have...

Tomorrow we are going to hit the Indiana State Fair, and then I'm going to have dinner and probably walk around the mall with Dawny (kid-free, yippee!). Then Sunday is church and we might try and hit the YMCA and swim at the pool for a while. Hard to believe it's just a couple more weeks and the pool will be closed until next summer! Lots of fun to be had this weekend!

I wish I could join Jordan and take a snooze during naptime, but I figure if I get some work done that I will feel better and enjoy the fun weekend a lot more!

Mommy and her little man (don't mind the no makeup look ... I did manage to squeeze a shower in since I got all sweaty riding the bike with 27 pounds behind me, but forget about the makeup today)!!!
