The Happenings of the Weekend

We go through ebbs and flows with our weekends and how busy they are. This weekend was pretty busy. We got to do lots of things and we had fun.

Friday night we went out to dinner with Cole's brother Grae at the Ram. Nothing terribly fancy but it was fun and it is always good to get Marcus out in a restaurant to eat. I like to believe that if we continuously take him out and get him acclimated to eating in public and having to wait while eating that he will be better behaved and used to it when he gets older. We shall see if my theory works down the road!

Saturday we went to Lexie's (Cole's friend Tony's daughter) birthday party. She turned five and so it was off to PoJo's. Cole and I haven't been there in forever so it was pretty fun. We tried the photo booth with Marcus and it was an epic fail. The pictures didn't print the first time so they gave us a refund and we tried again. The second time Marcus' head was cut off in all of them even though we had his pictures in the "square" that was supposed to be the frame.

We took Marcus on some of the quarter rides for little kids that shake back and forth. I had low expectations and didn't think he would really care for it or realize what was going on. However he absolutely loved it. Pics below are from the PoJos experience.

After PoJos we headed over to the Tap House to watch the BSU game with Joe and Coco. Marcus was an absolute trooper and stayed for the whole game. We were out from 9:30 am and didn't get home until about 5. What an awesome little boy!

Sunday was football day! We had a lot of organizing and cleaning up to do since Jake and Jessica moved out and my Mom and Grandma are coming to visit. So we spent the morning cleaning and playing with Marcus before heading to Grae's for the football party. Pic below of Cole and Marcus playing together Sunday morning.

The football watch party was fun too. Cole and I played each other this week in fantasy football and I won. Actually all the couples played this week and all of the girls won. ;o) The only downside to the evening was that Marcus starting getting pretty fussy and I had a feeling he had an ear infection. I took him to the doctor today and sure enough he does. Poor little man. Antibiotics are in him though and we are on the mend!
