Weekend Fun!

We had a nice, somewhat quiet weekend!

On Friday night, it was the usual happy hour hangout. Amelia was HUNGRY that night -- we are pretty sure that she ate for about an hour straight.

She ate her own kid's meal (the usual - grilled cheese and glazed carrots):


And then started working on Colleen's leftovers:


Sweet potato fries -- YUM!


It's funny, because she usually plows through her carrots pretty quickly, but only eats 1/2 of the grilled cheese. Often, she passes her leftovers to her buddy, Carrick. But that night, she ate her whole meal, some of Colleen's, and did her usual munching off of our food, too.

On Saturday morning, Amelia got some cute stuff on, and went with Mommy to the grocery store, while Daddy graded papers:


She loves the new shoes that Mommy got for her!

When we got back, she was such a helper, assisting Daddy with the putting away of the groceries:


And then it was time for lunch. I took her shirt off, so she wouldn't get it all messy, while slurping down a banana smoothie.

It was a good choice:


After a nice long nap, she enjoyed a raisin snack, before we headed out for the evening:


She's laughing in this picture, because she had burped and I was mimicking her:


We went over to our friends, Dee and Joe's house for dinner. Amelia entertained us with her antics.

She was being goofy, and using chips to scoop up some fruit:


And laughing when Joe was making faces across the table from her (that's cake on her face):


She had a GREAT time playing with Dee and Joe -- especially enjoying Joe's airplane rides!

On Sunday morning, she was pretty groggy all morning, from having so much fun the night before.


We had a fun time playing around the house in the morning, but then we had plans to go out, because Chris and I had tickets to a show and Amelia had a playdate planned with Joey's family.

A quick peanut butter and pita snack before we left:


First, we stopped for lunch at the North Market - YUM!


Amelia the helper put her high chair away:


High-five from Daddy:


And off to go meet up with Joey!


Amelia got a nap in Joey's car - to rest up for playtime at the mall:


After Mommy and Daddy's show was over, we headed over to meet up with them and watch Amelia play a little more.

She LOVED the play area at this Mall -- it was our first time at that one.

She kept climbing over this space shuttle:




She wasn't a fan of being on top though:


Here are some videos of Amelia playing at the play area.

[Again, hit pause and let the video load before watching!]


In that one, check out around the 29 second mark - she seems to be having a moment with the boy in the striped sweater.


In that one, check out the adorable smile she gives me at the 22 second mark.
