The original plan for today was for me to enjoy some time kid-free, by going to Canton with my sister for the day. After all, I'm nearly 29 and have never experienced Canton trade days. After watching the weather yesterday, we were worried it might be too chilly and windy today, so we opted to post-pone our trip til next month (it obviously turned out to be a beautiful day, so we missed out anyways.) So, what to do now? I grabbed Austin and we headed to
Firewheel to meet up with my sister there. Jordan stayed home with Chase, since he's had a cold and congestion for nearly two weeks now, so I didn't want to get him out. The three of us enjoyed some lunch and then headed over to the children's mini-playground that's outside for Austin run off some energy.
Then we spotted a fountain and Austin got all excited. I think he threw $5 worth of coins in there!
We decided to venture into the Build-A-Bear workshop to look around. Well, then Mommy had to go back to the car to get my wallet, because this kid wasn't leaving without building a bear! After selecting a puppy dog, he got to push the peddle to stuff it....
Next we had to give it a bath and scrub it good....
After dressing it in a
Mavs uniform, complete with a basketball, and naming it "Hoops", we were on our way!
Needless to say, all this was hard work and he was pooped on the ride home!
Apparently all he needed was a power nap on the way home, not a full one. He was excited to show off his new friend and say hi to Chase as soon as we got home. He truly missed him!
He's now out with Daddy going to get a haircut and picking up some sand to fill our new basketball goal for the driveway. While they're out, I'm snuggling with the cutest little peanut ever. Tomorrow he'll be 2-months old and we have his checkup and shots with the
pedicatrician, so stay tuned for his stats!
Needless to say, I didn't get my kid-free day as originally planned, but I had a great day running around with Austin and my sis anyways. However, I am going to break away when Jordan gets home to treat myself to a
pedi. :)
