Bunch of nothing = Whole lot of fun!

This weekend was glorious b/c we did a bunch of nothing, which can sometimes be a whole lot of fun! Barrett, Champs and I were in town all weekend and spent some great time together.  It had been a long, busy week so we were excited for some down time.

I got Champs a little early on Friday afternoon and went to Barnes & Noble to the kids book section.  I had never done this before and it will definitely be at the top of my list of activities from now on.  He loved it.  He is so into books right now that he was just on Cloud 9 with books everywhere he turned.  They also have a train set so that was fun too!

After this we met Barrett at Chickfila for supper (supper for Champs that is).  He loved his kids meal and waving to all the pretty sorority girls!

Fri night after we got Champs bathed and dressed in extra warm pj's and coat and tobogan, we went next door to our new neighbors house to roast s'mores on thier firepit.  They moved in about a month ago and have 2 young boys, ages 2.5 and 6, so great for Champs!  They are really sweet to him already.

Barrett and I made our first fire of the season on Fri night after Champs went to sleep!

Saturday morning, I took Champs for a big treat.  He had his first ever donut.  He LOVED it to say the least.  He ate every bite.  I'm not sure I'd ever had a "Latte Lite" from DD before, but I will say, it was pretty tasty! These pics of him with the donut make me laugh. 

Charlie came over and watched football with us all afternoon and played with Champs.  We had a good time and even got our firepit going out back.  It was that kind of weekend - cold!!  I made chili and cornbread for all of us, even Champs liked it!

Didn't take many pics and somehow never got one with Charlie, but we had a good time.  Champs is quite obsessed with the new dog next door.  This is him looking for him!

And enjoying the firepit! 

Since we had an extremely disappointing game, though later received the great news that Deshaun did NOT tear his ACL, we had to create some new fun.  Champs had a blast with Barrett pushing him so fast across the den on this little car.  Hilarious to watch!

Champs turned 15 months old on Sunday! We went to church and then to Lizard's Thicket for lunch.  They have a great $3.99 kids meal with a meat and 2 sides.  Champs had baked ham, macaroni and butter beans (NOT lima) and loved it.  He is still fascinated by lemons and loves tasting them only to make these horribly funny faces afterward! 

 It was a great weekend and has me ready for a new week!! 

Can't believe Thanksgiving is next week.  And that means Christmas is right behind.  I need to get busy!!!!

Have a great week everyone! We are headed to doctor this afternoon for his 15 mo appt.
