So much for that moblog thing, huh? Oh, well!
We had a great time, and even though we drove south-ward, it was still colder than cold! It even spit snow and sleet Saturday afternoon/evening. We had ideas of places to take Southern Boy so he could play and explore, but ended up not going because of the ARCTIC! chill in the air. Instead, we let him spend his birthday money he had been saving for a whole 2.5 weeks. He did pretty good...Star Wars Legos, an Incredibles video game (on sale!), a Star Wars Transformer, 2 Star Wars Lego t-shirts (he insisted on that one and one with R2-D2 and C-3PO). It was like 5 year old heaven! Also, Gymboree was having the best! sale! ever! and I scored Southern Girl several pieces for her birthday (which is FRIDAY!) and for next year, too. I even found Southern Baby a cute little outfit - It's the first thing we've bought for the baby!
It was quite funny that Southern Boy kept singing "we're going on vacation!" as if we were headed to Disney World. His highlight was staying in a hotel and going to Toys-R-Us...MY highlight was him falling asleep 20 minutes into the drive home, and actually sleeping the ENTIRE WAY! That boy talks non-stop!
Weekend realizations:
• we have GOT to purchase ourselves a king size bed, especially when this baby comes.
• Southern Girl can now go a whole weekend without baby food, and boy does she love chicken!
• I have a sincere hatred of the Heely’s shoes. Sincere. Hatred.
• Our son is a poop machine. And? He will always need to go when the conditions are less than perfect. I'm just saying...
• People are CRAZEE. When you wake up and it is freezing outside, DON'T wear flip flops or sandals...I really don't care how many jackets you have on. Also, shorts and a polo shirt? I'm telling ya, crazy!
• I need a new cell phone. This is not a want, it is a need! Preferably one that will hold a charge and not have sound issues.
• I can't resist the power of Babies-R-Us.
Really, y'all know how it is...sometimes just getting away from the same 'ole, same 'ole does wonders for how you feel. It's a good thing, because now we are in full-out 1st birthday planning mode. The actual big day is Friday, but we are having her party on Saturday. Let me just say...pink and green everywhere! That's where we are...

Oh, yes, I8 do know how it is when you get out of the same ol' same ol'. The hardest part is coming back! :-)
Welcome home and glad y'all had fun!

Sounds like you had a great weekend! Sometimes just a little getaway is all you need.
And I can't believe that Southern Girl is turning one this week! Happy Early Birthday!
