Weekend Update

The weekends sure fly by! This Saturday was the baby shower for our dear friends Trey and Brittany. It was so much fun! Although I was a little worried I wouldn't be able to do anything...little Brody was sure making his presence known when setting up. Thanks to Regina and Bella helping me and Erica. Silly me didn't bring my camera so I snapped some with my phone before everyone arrived.

The watermelon carriage was actually easier to make than I thought. However, the skin must have been tough because it was HARD to stick in the toothpicks to hold the "wheels". That was the BEST watermelon I've had all summer.
That evening we went swimming to escape the heat. And we were back on Sunday too. Aiden is a water boy! I need to take a picture but I keep forgetting. But he is quite hilarious with his Nemo lifevest on and one noodle under each arm. He will swim from one end to the other and jump into the pool (only if Mommy is there to "catch" him) . One of the perks of my in-laws house, which is a need this summer haha! So hot!

After swimming we came back to both nap at the house. Mommy was worn out and so was Aiden. You find us like this most Sunday afternoons....He's on one end I'm on the other and in the middle of the nap Murph sneaks his way in to snuggle.
Other news. No more Pull-ups for Aiden. He is officially only in big boy undies...however I still put him in them at night...don't trust that bladder yet :-) This weekend we didn't have any successes, but thats okay. This morning I thought we were never going to get out the door. Recap:

Woke Aiden up. Change #1. Walked him in the bathroom to see if he needed to potty. Nope.
Gave him breakfast while I'm getting everything together. Gets it all over his clothes. Change #2.
Go back to packing things. Accident #1. Change #3.
Go back to the potty to see if hes got some more in there. Nope.
Start to pack the car. Come back in. Accident #2. Change #4.

I swear it took us an hour to leave the house this morning....I was beyond frustrated and Aiden knew because on that last accident he said he was sorry and gave me a big hug. How could that not melt your heart...I told him it was okay but that he needed to be better at school, which got a "Okay Momma!"

Here was his supply list for today. 20 pairs of undies, 10 shorts, and 3 shirts.....hope that gets him through the day.....Oh the laundry!

Tomorrow we get out early for the 4th so I took a little time off so me and Wes could have a day date. Now I just need to decide what movie we want to watch and then we are off to see the firework show that night with the little man.
