Fat babies, Playdates & Shopping | Weekly Update

I have an entire week to update you all on, so bear with me on the photos...there's a lot! We started last week off with one chubby bubby! I can't get over those baby rolls on the legs...seriously, I just want to eat him up!


I mean, as long as your comfy, right dude?!


He is also getting much better at sitting up on his own! We're not there completely, but soon!


I'm taking full advantage of this cooler weather and LOVING the fall baby clothes.


On Thursday, I dropped Christian off at school, and Gavin and I went to the Louisville Kidstuff Sale. If you're a new mom or pregnant, I would highly suggest checking these sales out! The next one is in October and is located in New Albany, Indiana. Click the link for more info!

Gavin fussed and cried the.entire.time at the sale, so I didn't buy as much as I normally would have. However, I fed him his new favorite lunch (seriously, gobbled it down like a hungry turkey) and then he passed out. I halfway thought about going back in after he passed out, but didn't want to chance waking up the beast.

Christian came home from preschool begging to look through our family photos...I'm not sure what that was about, but okay buddy! He showed Gavin every single picture that he was in. There's Christian and there's Christian and there's Christian. ;)


Yay for a sale!


Thursday evening we babysat for our friends...which meant Christian got to play with his best buddy, Weston. I mean, how cute are they?!



Friday, after I dropped Christian off at school, I decided to bite the bullet and go clothes shopping for myself. Gavin was such a little trooper and I had a lot of luck (and coupons!) at Kohl's.


We also have a toe biter on our hands, so if you're ever at our house, be warned! ;)


You know you're an OCD mom when you start your baby early on cleaning!


Friday night we went to our old stomping grounds...Floyd Central High School...to watch my little brother perform in the marching band. Go Green & Gold!


Saturday morning we had a playdate at Huber's Orchard & Winery. Christian was a bit of a whiny 3-year-old, as you can read about in my last blog, but we still managed to have a good time! 


We fed the ducks & geese...who were NOT shy in the least. 




The weather was gorgeous, so after naps, we went outside to play for a bit. I attempted to do an outward-facing carry with my wrap (found here), but it didn't work out so well. These wraps are meant for forward facing carries. So we switched to the mini stroller & let Christian do the pushing...which he is obsessed with.


Saturday night, we went out for Chick-fil-a, a shopping trip to Target & then back home for kid bedtime & adult wine-down time! We watched the movie Neighbors...which was hilarious.
BTW-my tomato plants have randomly started giving me tomatoes again! Okay, don't mind if I do!


Sunday, Dustin went to the Colts vs Titans game in Indy with one of his buddies, so I had the boys to myself all day. Christian had a low grade fever in the morning, and had to make sure Woody didn't have a fever, too. ;)


We took a trip to Old Navy (yay for coupons!) and bought some adorable Halloween outfits...including this bat hat. Dying!



When we got home, Christian was passed out in the Jeep...which is unusual...and he felt extremely warm. I checked his temperature, and sure enough...his fever was a lot higher.


The rest of the evening consisted of movies, cuddles & medicine. And extra big hugs when daddy got home. Side note: I have a house rule. NO holiday movies until the month of the actual holiday. Otherwise, the movies aren't special anymore. So I've been hoarding all of the Halloween movies until October, but when your fevery kiddo asks for "Jack movie" you can't say no. 


I was actually happy to see 102 again...it was 103 and that's when I start getting worried!


Sunday night, Christian slept with me so I could keep an eye on his fever throughout the night. I was shocked to wake up at 5:30 (when Dustin gets up for work) to realize that Gavin hadn't woken up at all throughout the night! He didn't wake up until 6:30!! That's a first. I nursed him, he went back to sleep and didn't wake up again until 8:45...talk about a good night's sleep (well, aside from waking up to check Christian's fever every couple hours...but I didn't have to get out of bed, so I count that as a win)!


Christian still has a fever, and Gavin has had a low one, but both boys are acting okay, so I'm not too mad at this Monday. Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Thanks for reading!
