Weekend

James didn't want to go to sleep last night... it was almost 11 before he finally fell asleep; therefore, there was no blogging for me. I just went to bed! Little guy was up at 6:30 this morning, too. He was ready to play! I was ready for a little more sleep.

We had a great weekend. Saturday morning was mellow and we just relaxed around the house. Here is James watching TV with Uncle Andy. Jemma spent almost an hour talking with Chris... I asked what they talked about and he replied "What did we not talk about!"

We went to church Saturday night and the kids seemed to enjoy it. I snuck out of the service to check on them in the nursery. Jemma was drawing with her shoes off and James was watching a little girl from the swing. I was so happy that they were happy! Afterwards, we spent some time out on the deck since it was such a nice night. Jemma ate (and wore) her watermelon, and we shared lemon squares from a local bakery. I love sweets... it so contradicts my desire to fit back into my pre-pregnancy clothes!

Sunday was GREAT! We had a relaxing morning. I made bacon and pancakes and we ate on the deck. Uncle Andy napped with James in the hammock while Jemma and I spent time chatting with Aunt Suzanne. Jemma came running down the hall saying "Aunt Suzanne, is this what you use to powder your nose?" Too cute....

We left for the Desirey's and stopped by Target for a little shopping along the way. (Uncle Andy took Jemma and Roscoe to a park nearby while Suzanne, James and I shopped.) We had such a lovely visit at the Desirey house. Jemma and James got to swim with the family. Mrs. Desirey made such a yummy dinner... Hamburgers, corn on the cob, green beans, and homemade peach cobbler with ice cream!!! :) Now, both kids are in bed (thanks to Aunt Suzanne giving Jemma a bath and putting her to bed while I took care of James) and I'm heading there myself.

The hat was a gift from Mr. Desirey. (The race was on during our swim and before dinner.)

Only 3 more days and my wonderful husband is home... I am so looking forward to it!!! :)
