Busy bee weekend

We were busy, busy bees this lovely fall weekend.

On Friday, we stayed with our typical pizza night but upgraded and went to Pizza by Elizabeth's and then to Longwood for the last night of their Lights installation.  It was great to walk through the garden at night and see all the cool lights, but Jackson lost his cool about 1/3 of the way through and we unfortunately had to leave.

On Saturday we went to soccer.  It was picture day and Jackson would not stop sticking his tongue out.    Afterwards, I went and got my hair cut and when I got home Adam told me he was going with the neighbors to see a Weezer concert at the mall (yes, you read that right).  Jackson and I headed to the Museum of Natural History for the first time.  He had a good time looking at all the stuffed animals and telling me they were "sleeping" and also pointing out Nemo in the coral reef display.  Then, we hung out for a bit outside until Daddy got home.  Then, it was time for the Badger game and some Cincinnati-style chili.  Our friends Katie and Andy came over to watch the game and talk baby stuff since they are due in January.

Jackson pointing at Nemo at the museum. He was scared to walk on top of it.

Sunday, daddy got up early and went to Dover for the race and then the Eagles game after that.  Mommy and Jackson made pumpkin snicker doodles and and then we went to the Children's Museum where Jack played with the trains forever and ever before I coaxed him out of there with the promise of "Donalds."  We hit the shoe store for some kicks (and a ball) and then went home for a nap.  After the nap, we walked to the playground then over to see Andy and Katie's new house.  We also did some art tracing our feet and hands on the paper, which normally he wants nothing to do with.  Dinner, bath time and bed by 8:15 (early by his standards) followed.

Don't let him fool you, for some reason he did not want to roll the dough in the sugar

Apparently he was done with the PJs

This was how he rowed - arms straight up in the air

Tired from all the fun at the Children's Museum

All in all, a good, local weekend.  Next weekend apple orchard!
