Weekend Happenings


First of all...you guys cracked me up with all of your toddler stories from my last post!  It also made me feel better that I was not alone with that experience, so thank you for opening up and sharing.  You all are the best!  ;)

We had a super mellow weekend which turned out to be pretty fun.  The weather was super nice...so we spent as much time outside as possible!

 Ethan snuck away to play his beloved iPhone games in his tent on Friday night.  
You can see some of his favorite apps here.

 On Saturday, we walked a new path out by the lake and had lunch at Edgewood...our favorite spot!  You can't beat the view.

 And this could very well be my new favorite picture of Ethan.  He loved play in the sand and wanted to run into the lake.

Love these two!

 Totally had a cheat meal on Saturday night...this is a naan pizza with goat cheese, cauliflower and garlic with a side of brussel sprouts and wine.  Super rich but SUPER good!

 Sunday morning, I gave into another obsession that Ethan has as of late...he LOVES playing with the water int he faucet...
{Proof we live with a toddler...look at those countertops!}

And gets super upset when you tell him playtime is over...notice the tears in his eyes?  

Later that morning, we met up with a friend and went to our neighborhood park.  Ethan had so much fun climbing and going down on the slides.  We'll definitely have to do that again soon.

Sunday night, we made Ina Garten's Winter Minestrone...it's SOOOO good!  Perfect for a chilly Sunday night.  

How were your weekends?

  3. So glad your weekend was relaxing! You deserve it! I know how horrible it feels when you can't get to your baby. When I locked Caden in the car I felt so horrible. It is so good for us mama's to share those stories with each other.
