The past two weekends have been so beautiful that we’ve been able to enjoy some nice outdoor family outings. On Sweetest Day, we spent the afternoon at the apple orchard where I climbed the hay stacks with our son. Then he ‘buried’ another boy under the corn in the silo. Our daughter snuggled up to Daddy the whole time!
In the evening, my parents watched the kids while we left our daughter for the first time. Since we started supplementing the breast milk with formula, it was not an issue. It felt very freeing to be able to spend time alone together having a romantic dinner & going to a movie.
The next day we went to my parent’s home where we visited with some relatives. Although we don’t get to see them often, it’s always nice to. They really enjoyed meeting our daughter to. I’m constantly amazed at how much my nephew grows each time.
On the way home, we stopped for ice cream which our son shared so nicely.
That Monday night, we went to the local McDonald’s where they were having a free Halloween party for kids. Our son immediately started to flirt with a little girl (about the same age) dressed as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. He liked it when she told him she thought his costume was cute. Our daughter hung out with me most of the time.
The next evening, I had a girls’ night with my best friend. We went to Olive Garden & had a delightful dinner just talking & catching up. It was great to see her again.
We went trick-or-treating downtown with the kids & my parents-in-law. Once the son went down, it started to get awful cold.
Before we took the kids to school one morning, our son & his friend took turns feeding our daughter her bottle. How cute!
Our daughter didn't really care as long as she got her bottle!
