This was the last day of my summer break - it was filled with reading, napping, laundry, napping, dishes, and some more napping. Eric spent another day on "the route" )Time and a half for Memorial Day, wooo!) and will be sad when his boss starts scheduling him for in town deliveries again. He really likes the pace of the route and the hour of overtime because he doesn't have to take a lunch break. Woo!
After he got home from work, Mom and Alan brought Andrew to our house for the week. They stuck around for awhile to get Andrew settled, and to mingle with the cats - but then they headed out to enjoy their baby-free night. Eric and I had been hoping to watch Andrew for a few weeks to help Sarah out financial and time-wise to help her get a job without the worries of scheduling babysitters and such. That didn't end up working out, but we are really glad to have him visiting this week!
We started our night with a walk to the park, playing with other kids, playing at home, making/eating dinner, then some quiet play and stories before putting Andrew to bed at 9pm. He went to sleep like a dream, which is lucky for him because we've got to wake up at 6:20 every day this week for jobs in Olathe!
One of our photo screens (the ones that were behind us during our wedding ceremony) fell over while I was napping today because the wind coming through the window was so strong! So I tied a ribbon to them, nailed it to the wall, and went back to sleep. Voila!
In the past two weeks since we've started recycling, 2/3 of our waste is recyclable! Yea!
Andrew made some girlfriends at the park, it was too cute!
Peek-a-boo!
The pavilion was covered in broken glass, and Eric cleaned it up. What a great guy!
Andrew played "Here, have a wood chip" with Eric.
Going for a bike ride! (Just for the photo op, no actual bike riding occurred :p)
A yummy, healthy dinner - pasta, green beans, mashed potatoes, and rolls.
Andrew's pseudo-high chair. He stayed on the sheet the whole time. When he tried to stand up and walk off of it, Eric turned on his serious voice and said "Sit down." Andrew promptly sat and kept eating.
When we thought we would have Andrew for most of the summer, I planned on cloth diapering him. I bought a few cloth diapers on craigslist - and here is Andrew in his first ever cloth diaper!
