This will most likely be the last weekend with just us. Sean and I only have Mac every other weekend, so for the last eight years we've had the chance to be parents, but also get lots of "us" time.
This has been the quintessential "us" weekend. Me scrapbooking with music blasting, cleaning the house, running errands, eating lunch out yesterday, watching TV snuggled on the couch with the fireplace on, sleeping in...altogether relaxing. Yet, all the while it's tucked in the back in my head, this is the LAST time...for a loooong time.
Still on my get-stuff-done kick. Yesterday, among various errands, we bought the birthday gifts we need for friends and family in April and I got both Mac and Darby's Easter baskets done. More organizing around the house...including Miss Darby's accessory drawer. Crazy, much? :)
The other fun and excitement around here was we went out to see Mac's first baseball game yesterday. Bad mom that I am, I never remember to sign him up for baseball season...the sign-ups are in November or something and it never occurs to me. This year Bryce's sister signed him up for a Challenger league in her neighborhood since her two step-kids have been on little league teams. So we met them out there yesterday morning for his first game...he was soooo freaking cute in his Indians uniform. Challenger games are set up with two innings...everyone bats till they hit the ball and then runs all the bases. Mac decided to practice his "slide" which consisted of him falling to his knees as he approached each base. Sean got this photo of him sliding into home.
As far as Baby Watch, Roxana decided she was too tired to go out on Friday night. Her contractions have still been far apart, but she reported that the baby felt a lot "lower" when she walked around. Her next appointment is Thursday, but I'll give her a call tomorrow to see how she's doing and if she needs anything.
