reverse of last weekend

After the excitement of my nephew being born it was a pretty laid-back weekend. Saturday I did some stuff around the house and went to Lowes to buy some stuff to fix and outside spigot. went back to look at some clearance stuff for the new house with the family. then, ended up at the goat's house to mooch supper. It poured rain most of the afternoon and evening, so i didn't get the spigot on til Sunday. We now can use the hose to water the plants and cars. Yippee.
Sunday played with Cooter and watched Winnie the Pooh sing-a-long about 20 times. The kid doesn't quit. All he says is Pooh, Pooh and jumps and (tries to) sing with the music. It is damn cute, but he tires me out just watching him. it is a VCR tape so he gets very impatient when it rewinds. I have to tell him to keep his fingers off the VCR buttons constantly. I caught up the laundry and put a new neck on the shower head. Uppa, Grandma and aunt AJ came to visit sunday night. Cooter was a big show-off. the kid loves to "entertain".
Last weekend was run, run, run. this weekend was pretty slow. I like the slow weekends. I was still busy, but not driving all over the county like last week.

Weekend Update

A pretty uneventful weekend, as weekends go. Got mad a juju sat. morning as she took one of her students to a "prom show". After throwing her back out Friday, i didn't think she should be doing anything but resting. as much pain as she was in the day before i wouldn't think she would want to risk re-injuring it. Her mother warned her it was her body telling her to slow down and she ignored it. Then me feeling a bit like an unpaided babysitter as I was with Cooter all day last sat. as she scrapbooked, let's just say we had a "difference of opinion" on what her saturday priorities should be. I'll admit I was probably jealous, as i think of the weekend as "familly time", whether we do something or just hang out. not that i mind chilling with my kid, i would just rather chill with the both of them.
anyway, my aunt stopped by in the afternoon and she and i went over to the new house to check it out. the rain damage wasn't as bad as i thought i would be. She hadn't seen it without the roof.
all of juju's stuff in the basement was wet, but not damaged as most were in rubbermaid containers.

The family went to lowes later to pick out a front door and stop at the new house again.

Sunday was church then home. juju went shopping in the afternoon. cooteer had a crazy sleep schedule. didn't take a nap until 3pm after getting up at 7 am. a 3 hour nap and back to sleep at 10:30. Up at 2 am til 4 am. weird. (thanks for getting up with him juju) he always sleeps through the night. the only thing i can think of is he ate at odd times and maybe that threw him off.

oh, sunday night coother did something cute. juju was putting sleeves on scrapbooks and there was a pic of grandpa. Cooter pointed to him and said "Uppa" and kept repeating it. when juju took the page away to put it in the book he stared crying. she gave it back to him and he would point and say. "uppa" again with a big smile on his face. he has his own kiddie scrapbook called "Who Loves Me". it has foam pages with plastic picture covers and lots of family photos in it. juju put a big pic of grandpa in it for him. he took it to the babysitters today...."uppa" all the way there.......
