Gotta love weekends

We have had such a good weekend! Even though I worked on Friday night, I made the most of the afternoon shopping and running errands. I spent most of my shopping time looking for jean shorts for Corey and spent $50 on 5 pairs of jean shorts, 1 cotton pair, and a set of Cubs onsies for him! Since the weather was in the 80's that day, I thought it would stay that way and he'd need them...today: 60's and rainy:( oh well, I got 6-9 months on 4 out of 6 of his shorts so he will fit into them in June/July!

Saturday, I woke up bright and early singing the theme song to Mr. Rodger's Neighborhood to Corey, which made him laugh and smile then he went back to sleep. I, on the other hand, got up took a shower, cleaned the house and made 2 fruit pizzas. We had a cookout/NFL draft day party to go to and then at night I was going to my mom's to see my step-grandparents and show off the baby to them and my step dad's family. The pizzas turned out very good! They better had since Chris and I had to go to the store 3 separate times to get forgotten ingredients. Anyways, I like making fruit pizzas, I think its my favorite thing to eat and make.

We got to the draft day party all decked out in our 49ers gear and it was the first time we had Corey in Niner stuff so we were super excited and giddy to show everyone how cute he looked. (see picture above) It was such a relaxing day and I loved hanging out with friends and family. My mom called me 5,000 times though to figure out when I was coming over to see her husbands side of the family...I had to disapoint her and tell her we weren't leaving until we saw who the niners were going to pick up. We got Michael Crabtree, a wide receiver from Texas Tech. Not my favorite school since they are Texas' rivals, but oh well. I was wanting them to draft a quarterback namely Mark Sanchez...oh well, again.

We finally made it mom's house with Corey around 8:30 and we had dessert there. Corey was a hit with everyone. My grandparents loved him and would not let them go and they couldn't take enough pictures. My grandma gave me a really nice gift. I think they're called willows. A willow figurine. I'm sure everyones seen one they are carved wood with no faces. Very pretty and special.

I made my mom's day by letting her take the baby for the night even though Chris and I didn't have plans. I cried and cried. Everyone who was there laughed at me. It was embarrasing but we finally left and caught a late movie in Pekin. We watched Obsessed with Beyonce!! O man, it was good. Scary...man that girl was off her rocker obsessed. We then went out for a drink and it was nice just the two of us.

Even though I only had 4 hours of sleep I woke up at 6am and got ready to go get my son. When I got there, everyone was sleeping still. By everyone I mean my mom, step dad, brother, step grandparents, and step uncle. They had all stayed there that night. I woke them all up, even Corey! My mom said he hogged the bed trying to stay close to her all night and he only woke up once at 12am and once at 6am (when I got up, weird). Since I was there, I was talked into staying for breakfast. I love my grandmother's cooking so I stayed and it was good:) I stayed until 1pm and when I went home, I took the longest nap ever since Corey's been born. Most of the time, Corey was asleep with me, too. We woke up to take a walk with Chris to Jimmy Johns and then to Dairy Queen. We live down the road. We then went to wal-mart for some grocery shopping and I went back home to nap some more.

It was such an amazing weekend, I can't wait until the next, MAY!
