Last Weekend and This Weekend

I created this post about our weekend two weeks ago, but forgot to post it!  Here it is:)  Below you will find events from this past weekend too!

Friday night we relaxed and stayed home!  Saturday we slept in, had pancakes for breakfast.  The morning flew by and before we knew it, it was nap time.  Our friends texted us to see if we could hang out.  Did you hear that?  "Our friends"  Ha, yes, one of the very few couples that will actually be our friends  and aren't freaked out by Dan's job.  We headed over to their house to hang out, have dinner, and enjoy watching our kids interact with each other.  It was SO nice to see them again.  It's been forever!  They have two boys and Brianne was worried about her "boys" scaring Svea by their running and noises, etc.  She'd tell them to settle down and then Svea would let out this huge belly laugh because she thought they were so funny.  It was very cute!  On Sunday, Dan had a very busy day at church and then in the afternoon the church call committee interviewed another prospective pastor.  They have a little girl only three months older than Svea and she ended up coming over to our house along with the college aged babysitters.  It was so fun, although I got to see firsthand how one year olds just don't have the whole sharing concept down yet.  They played well with each other otherwise and I got done a lot of cleaning (nesting/already settling in).

My Mom came this weekend and we had beautiful weather!  We all took full advantage and went on a long walk each day.  Svea and Riker were both in heaven and it felt amazing to be back outside! Dan and I were able to sneak away Sunday afternoon to buy a water softener (long story), but we may not need it.  Who knows:)  We also purchased Svea a potty.  I giggle every time I think about the fact that I bought a toddler potty!  I don't know why:)  She likes sitting on it for now and we wanted to have it for when she starts taking an interest in it. My Mom and Ron leave for France/Belgium next week so it was nice my Mom could come out before they leave.  Dan had a funeral on Saturday and in-between it all we played with stickers and more stickers!  Lately Svea has taken to wanting to give Meeko lots of hugs and kisses!

 Kisses!
