Lazy weekend...just what we needed!

After all the "excitement" of last weekend (i.e. mommy's weird stomach bug and Joey's yucky teething), we were all happy to enjoy a restful and lazy weekend at home.

Here are Joey and daddy wrapping up a long week on Friday evening with some apparently mesmerizing reading material.

On Saturday morning we had brunch at Trudy's with our Dallas friends Scott and Jon plus the whole McKinney clan. The good news is we did bring our camera. The bad news is that between all the catching up plus the tremendous all-you-can-eat brunch buffet, we forgot to get the camera out for pictures. Oops!

When Joey woke up from his Saturday afternoon nap, we all enjoyed some time playing around in Grandma's room. It's a newly discovered play area for Joey and now that he's starting to crawl up onto things, he especially likes playing on top of some of Gma's storage boxes. In this video you'll also see Joey's new love for dancing (aka spinning in a circle) and chatting on the phone.

We enjoyed breakfast at home on Sunday morning and afterwards Joey decided to help with the dishes. Okay, I know everyone and their dog has a picture of their child standing on top of the dishwasher but of course I think my photo is priceless. The expression on Joey's face is hilarious and plus he's not wearing any pants which is always a crowd favorite.

We wrapped up the morning by watching the British Open and Joey and daddy enjoyed a little ticklefest on the couch.

This weekend is exactly what we all needed to get ready for the work week. We're excited that on Wednesday we get to do another ultrasound and see Baby Magu #2 again!
