A Great July Weekend

We had a weekend with zero plans, which can be sort of a mixed blessing. It's nice to not run around crazy but sometimes I worry about getting bored. In the end, it ended up being a perfect weekend. We made sure that we got out and did stuff and we really had a fun time!

On Saturday we took the boys to the park for a picnic. It was Graham's first picnic. He thought the generic Enfamil made for fabulous picnic food! Wade played on the playground and then had fun traipsing through the woods (okay the trees...we were just in Webster) looking for a picnic site.

The next day we visited Suson Park with Steve, Maddy and Wes. Graham had already been to Suson Park, but it was the first time the Woods had been there. We were glad to introduce them to one of our favorite county parks.

Afterwards we had lunch at P'Sghetti's. I also got some sewing done (until I broke my needle), visited a baby/kids consignment sale, made chocolate chip cookie dough truffles for this week's book club, took part of an online photo shop tutorial, finger painted with Wade, watched Wade play in his pool, and did normal chores around the house. It was a great weekend all around!

Graham is 3 Months Old

Stolen off the internet, since the prints won't be here for another week

Graham turned 3 months old on Friday! He has worked out most of his spit-up issues and is now a smiley, happy baby. It is so much more fun to hang out with a baby who stays awake for awhile and does it in a pleasant manner.

I think he was even laughing at me!

Despite a 6-hour power outage and some basement flooding on Sunday, it was a good weekend. We had a pool party with friends and bought our new minivan. Wade really likes the minivan and so do we!

Wade cried when we made him get out!

A Visit From the Ferchens

Megan and her family took a vacation to St. Louis in June. It was great to visit with them, but it was also a great excuse for us to do some fun things around town.

On Saturday, Ryan and Wade introduced Jon, Kade and Alec to Busch Stadium. It was a hot game, though nothing compared to the 105 degree weather we are having now. Megan, Mazzie, Graham and I stayed home in the air conditioning and caught up.

After the game, the boys played in a fire hose to cool off. They came home very wet!

We went to Grant's Farm on Sunday and to the Arch on Tuesday. Wade was unsure of the tram ride but really enjoyed the view from the top.
