A busy weekend

Conner decided not to take a nap today, so he's already in bed asleep (after a tumultuous dinner)... it's 7:30 and he's probably been sleeping for half an hour! He went to the dentist today - a new one that's just up the road in Amelia, as opposed to the old one who was about 25 minutes away in Owensville. The new dentist is actually a neighbor of ours - the receptionist told me to "walk through the woods" if we hear a party over there.


Audrey is doing much better walking. Eric and I were just sitting in the family room with her so she could practice back and forth. The distance kept increasing, and though she didn't make it all the way across, she'd fall about halfway through but then stand back up and keep walking. Hopefully that's a sign of things to come!


Yep, we had a busy weekend. We left here on Friday around lunchtime to head up to Mom and Dad's. On Saturday, we went to Marysville, where Conner's friend Brian was having his 5th birthday party at a place called Marmon Valley Farms. Brian is the son of Chris & Sarah Boston, who are friends of mine from Miami. It was a beautiful day to be outside! Conner slept in the car on the way to the party (probably about 30 - 45 minutes), but Audrey never did; we didn't leave Chris & Sarah's until around 9:30, and they both were wiped out!





Sunday morning we left Pickerington around 9:15 or so with Papa and Weyla, heading south to King's Island. It was "Friends and Family Day", so they got in for $10 each - not a bad deal! We spent the day riding rides (Weyla's got an iron stomach, but Papa discovered he can't handle it anymore!) and took a break in the afternoon to see a Dora show. We left around 5:30 - surprisingly, neither kid fell asleep on the way home. But still, it was a long day and they went to sleep easily that night. What's even better is that they slept in on Monday! Conner was in bed until 8:45, and Audrey slept until 9:00. It was heaven!
