Weekend Recap

Errands and outdoors seems to sum up this weekend.  We FINALLY had decent weather and it was wonderful.  I was also happy to be able to check a few items off of my to do list.

A few highlights:

W had a doctor’s appointment Friday afternoon to have his ears rechecked to make sure his ear infection was gone.  I knew it’d be a pointless appointment because W is really good at telling us when his ears hurt and he wakes during the night any time he has an ear infection.  He hadn’t complained or woken up since starting the antibiotic so we knew he was feeling better.  But because the doctor wanted to see him again and because W loves going to the doctor, we obliged.  The appointment started with this:

Doctor: Is your name W____?

W: Yeah.

Doctor: What do they call you? (expecting to hear the shortened version of W’s name)

W: Pauses.  Thinks.  Big Red!

Bahahaha.  A and I only call W ‘Big Red’ when we don’t want him to know we’re talking about him.  I had no idea he had picked up on it.  Now we need to find a new nickname.

The doctor went on to ask if W was always so good.  Cue proud mom moment.  He is a good boy.  He certainly has his moments, but he is 3 after all, and he really is a good boy the majority of the time. J

We were all happy to spend time outdoors this weekend.  Walks, parks, and play time in the yard.  I also introduced W to tennis - something I've been eagerly anticipating!  And all good for the soul…
