Another kiddo moment...Our son is talking a bit now and today at Church whenever it grew quiet (after music would stop, etc) he found it necessary to announce "No More" in his biggest little voice. When daddy would sit he would grab daddy by the neck and while trying to lift his dad would demand "UP". Well...at least he doesn't cry or throw a fit during Mass...
We sit with the general congregation NOT in the "cry" room. We are always mindful to walk him out if he becomes fussy. Luckily - that rarely happens. I think it helps that he is familiar as we have been taking him since he was only a few days old and consistently over the past 14 months. I have a feeling though that it might become more difficult as he gets a bit older. I hope that we don't exiled into the cry room...

Whew...What a Weekend!
My Weekend Recap
Friday:
Surprise 40th birthday party for my brother in law. It was a happy celebration. However, eating a veggie burger at a BBQ joint was a slight bummer. We made up for it with ice cream cake.
Saturday:
I actually had time to clean my house. I mean really clean, not just tidy up. First, I took my son out for a walk. I have to tell you all that I love my go-to, no-fail nap trick! It works every time. Bonus: I get to have a great workout. I "wear" him while I walk so I have a 20 lb "weighted" walk. We bond. He falls asleep. I get a great workout + fresh air + sunshine. Win-win. After our walk I asked my husband to lie down beside him since he naps much longer that way. I wasn't too surprised to find that hubby ended up napping also. I should have taken a photo. As they napped I had a full 2 hours of uninterrupted cleaning time.Yay! The Shocker: I want to do more!
Sunday:
Church with my 2 guys. We are there every Sunday but this was our son's first Palm Sunday Mass. To see him raise his palm frond along with the entire congregation was heartwarming. He blew flying kisses to the people near us during the Rite of Peace - they couldn't help but come up to him. He kept waving to them after. He is such a charmer. Just like his daddy.
Later...off to a spa day with my 2 sister in laws (hubby's side). We had massages in the afternoon followed by lunch with the whole family. While the mommies were "spa-ing" the daddies had all 6 boys! No injuries. Woo-hoo. Imagine that: 6 (very active) boys with 3 dads in charge. 3 boys still in diapers...
Your turn! What did you all do this weekend?
