Update-apalooza

Whew, what a busy weekend. On Saturday we "pretend"slept in. Then we got to work! Thomas and I worked like crazy in the backyard, mowing, pruning, pulling weeds, cleaning the BBQ island, cleaning the patio, putting teak oil on the furniture while Jonathan napped inside in the swing. We had the baby monitor on and He was sleeping with music so it was a little like listening to the radio with a really bad signal :0). I also cleaned the kitchen. We came in for lunch, to feed Jonathan and take a break from the sun (Thomas really looked like a "redneck"), in the midst of all of that I kicked his swing.... hard.... I think I may have broken my "ring" toe, booo.

After that we worked a little more then took showers and met up with my mom, dad, and Alyssa to go the Cherry Festival. The Cherry Festival is for kids in Beaumont what the Holland Festival was for us as kids. We had fun walking the booths and having some dinner, the highlight was definitely people watching. We saw this guy with the most AMAZING mullet we had ever seen. We had to get a picture but weren't quite sure how so we "pretended" to pose for a photo and got him in the background. For a minute we thought he was with the band, Berlin (from the 80s), but we discovered that as the evening concert got started he is actually a roadie, must travel with the band to small town festivals for the performances. We were all cracking up!!! We only stayed for a few songs but it definitely took me back to the 80's club!!!

On Sunday we went to church and then came home so I could do Alyssa's hair for John and Janea's wedding, I was pretty proud of my work, it is the one style I can do for other people, so if you ever need an updo and want it to look like this.... I am your girl! We had dinner at my parents and then came home for a quick nap, we got ready and headed out for the wedding. It was a gorgeous ceremony and Jonathan slept through the whole thing. What a beautiful day! It took me back a little bit to our wedding since we were high school sweethearts who got married after college. sigh. We stayed a the reception for a little while but he was starting to get fussy so we went home to get him to bed. I also had to work on report cards so.....
Right before I took this picture Jonathan has his hand on Thomas' chin, so adorable.


Today we thought we had Jonathan's dr appt, but we wrote it down wrong and it is actually tomorrow. Can't wait to see how much he weighs, he grows so fast. On Saturday night we had to change his jammies in the middle of the night and I thought these ones that button up the front would be easiest, well it buttoned down to the middle of his tummy and his legs just hung out, so I just wrapped him up in a blanket. I can't believe that just 7 weeks ago he was swimming in them. I think there will be a ton of clothes that he will never get to wear.... bummer....
