My Weekend

I have some extra vacation to use before I leave Mercer so I took a vacation day on Friday. I wanted to get some shopping done for the summer, since it has been two years that I got to shop for spring clothes. Maternity doesn’t count J Anyway, I kept Cooper home for breakfast and took him to daycare a later in the morning. I went to the mall and Old Navy then met my mom and some of her co-workers for lunch then later I had a hair appt. It was pretty much an uneventful day. I did try to take a nap, you would think that would be easy since I have an empty house and no chance of a baby waking up, but I just couldn’t sleep.

Saturday started off great. After breakfast I took Cooper walking, well he was actually asleep, I did the walking. It was a great morning. Perfect weather the whole day I might add. We then stopped by Steve’s brother’s house to check out how he was doing at the yard sale, and then we hit the grocery store. I got back home and Steve was outside doing yard work, about 15 minutes later he comes in with a strange look on his face, turns out he had cut his finger on the hedge trimmers. Turns out it was fairly deep and would probably need stitches. Not that I want Steve to be hurt or anything, but better him than me. I don’t think he could have grabbed the baby, diaper bag, and remember to get the new insurance cards (our insurance just changed) and anything else he may need in such a rush. We try the Urgent Care Center; they are an hour and a half behind schedule, so we decide on the ER. Turns out that was a big mistake. We ended up waiting for 5 hours, just to get 4 stitches. I ended up leaving after 3 hours. I only packed one bottle; I didn’t think we would be there long enough to feed Cooper twice! Then again if it was Steve, he would have forgotten even the one bottle. I was supposed to go to a birthday party for Melissa’s daughter, so once again, Melissa if you are reading this, I’m sorry I missed it. Hopefully we can get together this summer. Steve did feel bad for “ruining” everyone’s Saturday, so I got my Mother’s Day gift early. I got a mother/child necklace/pendant. He‘s so good to me.

Sunday- Has anyone ever seen the weather do a complete 180? Seriously, how miserable can it get? Weather aside, Sunday was pretty good. We went to church and out to lunch with Steve’s family and my mom. We even got a short nap in at home. Overall, it was a pretty good weekend. On to next Saturday- yard sale day!
