Our weekend with Sammy

Another busy week has gone by again - a week filled with cooking (here and at Anthony and Lori's), church office work, church music prep, practices, and services.  I did get most of our tax stuff ready for filing; now I just need to find time to show everything to our tax guy.

All week I looked forward to a weekend with Sammy.  It seems so long since he was here.  I went to pick him up yesterday, and he was so excited to see me.   Sam said he's been talking about coming to "Mahna's" house all week.  That name he invented for me still cracks me up.

Some pictures from last evening:

Learning to use the remote control car.

He loves to cook.

Popsicle time.

He went to sleep almost as soon as he lay down and slept through the night.  This morning he had some oatmeal for breakfast. 

We lazed around and played for a long time this morning, but I needed to shower and was trying to figure out what to do with him (Dick was at work).  He just loves to play with the red candles I keep on my coffee table, so he brought them to my bedroom and held them while watching a show on Sprout TV.  Simple pleasures!

Lori and I had agreed that we would do lunch at Chik Fil-A with the boys today.  However, both our boys fell asleep on the way there!  So we spent some time in the parking lot letting them get some sleep first!   We were there a long time and had fun.

From there I went to Weis for groceries.  Sammy toddled along behind me getting lots of attention, as usual!  He fell asleep after we left there and got his second half hour nap of the day.

After we got home he "helped" Grandpa in his shed for a while, then they went to a nearby playground.  Here's a selfie that Dick took!

Anthony, Lori, and Austin stopped in for a while this evening and we had some more fun. 

As you can see, our snow is gone.  But not our cold weather.  But at least it's the end of March and we know warm weather WILL come!  And I'm loving the lighter evenings.

Tomorrow will be a really big day again, with both church services, eating lunch at Hoss's (a fund raiser that Houserville is doing for a family with medical needs), and then taking Sammy home, so it's time for us to be getting ready for bed.  

Right now he's doing a piano recital for me.  He insisted he needed a song book!  He accidentally hit the pipe organ setting, which surprised him.  He said, "I hate that sound!"  Hahahaha!!
