Weekend Recap: 3/14-3/15

Happy Monday!

The weather here in Memphis finally turned around and decided to let the sunshine come out.  The last several weekends have been full of rain and clouds.  It sprinkled a little on Saturday but Sunday was 70 and sunny and the perfect day to be out and about.

On Saturday, Ryan and I both got haircuts.  This isn't Ryan's first, he actually got his first haircut in January but a little Joe Dirt mullet started growing back so it was time for him to hit the salon with me.  He has been absolutely the best when he has gotten his hair cut.  I hear horror stories all the time about kids being terrified but all we do is plop a cup of puffs, yogurt bites, or cheerios in front of him and you could literally do anything to the kid's head.  But man does he look so cute afterwards.

Fresh cut

We then spent the rest of our Saturday cleaning the house a little and reading a few books.  I have been reading books to Ryan in the evenings since he was born but it has only been very recent, that Ryan has actually let me finish reading a whole book without taking it from me and throwing it.  Now, he actually brings me books or tries to read them himself.  Persistence pays off folks!

He was so proud of himself!

Sunday, we went to church and ran some grocery errands at Costco right afterwards.  Then got home in time for lunch and Ryan's nap but he decided he did not want one.  So, the afternoon was spent at the park to wear him out some more and enjoy some sun.  He loves being outside which makes me really excited for all of our outside adventures to come!  By the evening, Ryan had the worst little 'tude since he didn't get his nap, but went down quick.  However, due to teething, he decided to get up screaming 5 times last night so this momma had zero sleep.  I may have already had several cups of coffee this morning to rev my engines.  I felt so bad for him though.  When I dropped him off at daycare this morning, he was still so sleepy from his rough night.  It's moments like that where I wish I could just cuddle at home in my pj's with him all day in bed.  Nothing beats a baby snuggle or a baby giving you his kisses.

Still trying to teach him to pucker up.  He likes giving slobber kisses instead.

And that was it!  The weekend flew and now its back to work. We did find out that Ryan will have his baby dedication at church on April 18th and I am so excited.  It is very important to me that Ryan grows up in church like Russell and I both did.  We really enjoy our church family at Living Hope and look forward to Ryan growing in his faith.  We do nightly prayers with him and I look forward to when Ryan can join in with us and say his little toddler prayers.

I hope everyone has a great week!
