last few days of fun!

Well, Auggie's visit has come to an end. He spent his week with Christopher and had a good time =) He is now off to the next LO! I didnt get a chance to blog about the last couple of days, so here is a recap!

Monday he came to a football game with christopher. He just sat on the stroller tray, checking out everything going on =) Christopher was busy stuffing his face with goldfish and dried fruit. He tried offering Auggie some, but Auggie wouldnt open his mouth. Christopher looked at me and went on stuffing his own mouth.

Tuesday Christopher and Auggie took one last bath together. Christopher was splashing like crazy so its a good thing Auggie likes the water! They were splashing so much I honestly couldnt take a picture. I was too busy trying to stay out of the wet zone! Christopher is going to miss Auggie, but I think Auggie is ready to continue on his journey and meet some new families! He'll be leaving our house today and heading for the next LO! When the next person receives him, email me and I will send you your info on Auggie =) When I get a chance I will post our good bye pics here!

dinner and a movie!

Well Auggie had quite the day today! Christopher was extremely cranky when we got up, and since dh didn't feel well, I decided to take him (and auggie) for a walk in the neighborhood so Dave didnt get woken up.

We got outside and realized the weather had turned... boy was it chilly! Christopher had Auggie tucked inside the bundleme, which I luckily put on the stroller a few weeks ago. We took a quick spin around the outside of the development, and then i brought them back inside. We woke dh up around 9, got dressed, had some breakfast and played for a little bit. Christopher took Auggie with him for his nap, and dh and i started packing away all of christopher's newborn-12 month clothing :'(

When the two got up from their nap, we had some lunch, and headed to the Jackson outlets, which are down the street from great adventure. We shopped and shopped and shopped.... and only dh got anything today! This was the first time in a long time that Christopher DIDN't come home with something. DH bought a suit for interviews and things, and that was it! So we decided to take the 'kids' to the mall. Christopher and Auggie were making quite a racket in teh back seat... ok, Christopher was banging Auggie on the side of the carseat, so i guess it was christopher making the noise with Auggie lol.

When we got there, dh decided to splurge and take us all to dinner. We went to the cheesecake factory. It was great. Auggie kept Christopher occupied so we were able to enjoy our meal. We ordered one piece of that banana cheesecake for all of us to share. ---Christopher was good, so we decided since he loves bananas we would get that since he'd probably like it.... well, Christopher was in heaven! AND i was pleasantly surprised with how awesome it was! Needless to say, the three of us DEVOURED it in no time! Of course Dave had to put some whipped cream on his nose (see picture))... but Christopher didn't even notice! He was too busy playing with Auggie lol. Then we all walked the mall (even let Christopher out of his stroller to walk, er, run, the mall)).... dh got some new boxers at the gap since I have had a gift card since Xmas and still havent used it. Oh, we got our wedding rings cleaned too! Hooray for shiny jewelry! By the time we got home, Christopher and Auggie were sound asleep =)

Tomorrow, we are having a Giants Comeback party, and Auggie is very excited. =)

Will update more later!

Auggie & Christopher!

Well, after much anticipation, Auggie officially arrived on the 16th to spend some time with Christopher! Christopher has not been a very great host though! He keeps trying to thrown Auggie in the laundry basket, across the room, down stairs, etc. How fresh! But, they have had some fun playing. When Auggie arrived, the two took a quick bath since Christopher was a mess from breakfast. Christopher was very interested in checking out Auggie afterwards. He was telling Auggie a bunch of stories after bath time! I wonder if Auggie was able to understand any of what Christopher was saying!

Afterwards, we had to head to cheer practice. Auggie tagged along but Christopher ignored poor Auggie. Christopher only wanted to run around the field and get us to chase him. ((sorry auggie!!))

Auggie was pretty low key Friday. He came with us to check out the Pied Piper swim school in the next town over. Both Auggie and CHristopher were just itching to jump in the water! I had to hold on tight to Auggie, Christopher kept chucking him across the room (I think aiming for the pool!). Poor Auggie. We spent a lot of time in the car friday. After signing up for swim school, we went to my mom's to pick up a few things. The terrible twosome took a quick cat nap on the way there. We had to go pick up a bubble belt, and the two of them decided they were just way too hungry to be quiet. I actually had to pull over to feed CHristopher and save Auggie from insanity-- being in the same car with a screaming Christopher could be enough to push anyone to jump ship, and I didn't want to have to scrape Auggie off the pavement before the other kiddos had a chance with him!

Not quite sure what the two of them will be up to this weekend, but I will update the blog to let you know!

Auggie's Adventures

coming soon!
