Happy Mother's Day and Overnight with Grandparents (15 3/4 months and 25 weeks)

I had a really nice Mother's Day.  My first gift was from Austin's Daycare they made me a flower with Austin's picture in the middle.  Then his hand prints were around the pictures like flower pedals and his foot prints were the stems of the flower.  It was so cute!  Brian got me a really nice card and put the baby cam on my Kindle.  Plus he got me koala wall decals for Sydney's room.  I was so excited.  The wall decals were expensive but they are really cute.  I love my koala theme for Sydney's room but its hard to find koala stuff.
We went out to dinner for Mother's day.  I really did not want to cook or clean that day.  I spend a lot of time preparing meals and cleaning up after a toddler so I really wanted the day off.  We went to a buffet with my parents.  It was nice.

The weekend of Mother's Day we moved Austin Friday night into his new room.  My parents came up to help which was nice.  I was a little sad about moving Austin.  I was worried about how he was going to react.  But he did great.  He has basically slept all night all in his new room.  His room is bigger than Sydney's.  It is so nice.  I love my transportation theme for his room too.  His old room was okay but I never really loved it.  Now I love both of their rooms!   Someday maybe I will be able to love our bedroom.  We need new dressers but have chosen not to get them until we move into a bigger house someday.  All of our bedrooms are small.

On Saturday night, Austin had his first sleep over at my parents house.  I knew it was time for Brian and I to have a night to ourselves plus I knew Austin and my parents would enjoy it too.  We dropped Austin off after his afternoon nap.  Then Brian and I went to the Gorge and walked around.  We have had beautiful weather so we wanted to be outside and enjoy it.  Then we went to dinner at Rocknee's.  That is my favorite restaurant.  We don't go there as much as we use to but I still love it.  After dinner we went for some ice cream.  It was a great evening.  Once we got home, we walked around the block like we do every night.  However it felt so weird not having Austin with us.  Even some of the neighbors made comments asking where was Austin.

I got to sleep in too which was fabulous.  I was still awake at 6am but fell back asleep until 8am.  I have not done that in a very long time!  Once Brian got up, we got ready and went to pick up Austin.  Then we enjoyed our Sunday together.  Austin helped build a cover for his new pool (our neighbor Bill gave us a pretty nice 12 inch deep pool with a slide they don't use anymore).   He also helped wash the car.  He loves to play in the water.

Austin goes to swim class every Saturday.  He loves it.  I am also starting to take him on mornings during the week.  It is fun!  The weather has been unseasonably warm.  We have to keep the air conditioner on or fans on for me.  Being pregnant, I am already hot and this heat is not helping.  Poor Brian get frozen out some nights but I have to stay cool or I don't sleep.

Sydney continues to move around like a crazy baby.  She is mostly active at night.  I don't know what that means but hopefully once she joins us she will learn to sleep at night.
