Friday and Saturday were spent painting Dana's kitchen. My aunt June, Uncle Leroy and cousin Jess all came over to help. With all of the activity Friday night, he did not want to go to bed. Plus, being in a new environment he did not sleep well (which meant that mommy didn't sleep well). At 4:30am, I turned him over to grandma who was already up and I was able to get a little more sleep. Later that morning I went to a friend's house who was celebrating her 35th birthday with a BBQ. Noah hung out with grandma and auntie who continued working on the kitchen. When I got back, the group was just finishing up the 2nd coat in the kitchen. We had to wait around for Dana's new couch to be delivered (which showed up by 5p).
In the meantime, Noah helped grandma clean the brushes. I'm not sure which got more water, the brushes, or Noah.
That evening we met up with my aunt, uncle and cousins for dinner at a local pizza joint, Grimaldi's in Allen. It was at the most adorable outdoor mall and the pizza was very good! Despite the hour (I think we got our pizza at 8:30) Noah was in relatively good spirits.
Sunday morning, after church, Noah and I headed back to our house. We had things to do and couldn't wait to see daddy. We made it home around the same time so after Noah's lunch, when daddy wanted a break, Noah insisted on hanging out with him...and eating part of his lunch! The string in the picture is from a balloon I bought him at the store. Noah was such a good boy all weekend, I decided he deserved a treat. I couldn't pry it out of his hands until bedtime and then had to hide it in the closet!
Sunday night was BBQ night over at my cousin Jamie's. Noah got to play with Jamie's niece, Zoe. I wished I had a picture of the two of them. She wanted Noah's balloon and he wanted her red ball. Noah was a little overwhelmed with all of the pooches there (I think there were 5 in total?!) He seemed to have a pretty good time.
Grandma was tickling and entertaining him - she's always good about that!
Here is one of the few sour moments of the evening. Noah was not getting his way and he was pissed. I'm thinking of having this picture framed. I'll want to show it to him...over and over...one day I'm sure!
He loves to climb stairs so he got halfway and my cousin's, Jamie and Jess were having some fun with him. He couldn't get enough of it!

Monday came and went very quickly. We had a wonderful time with family and was so happy to have such a long break. I had to say goodbye to my summer Fridays *sniff* but the winter Fridays will come soon enough!
Hope everyone had a fun and relaxing Labor Day weekend!
Love to all,
Corri, Mike and Noah
