This weekend was so much fun and so busy -

Saturday Ethan and I went to Grandma and Grandpa's house near Peoria to visit with Rhonda and Chelsey. Ethan had a blast and actually slept a full night (I know!). I was so surprised to look at the clock and the time was 7:05 am Sunday morning! Grandpa made pancakes, eggs, and sausage for breakfast, it was awesome! Ethan ate great and played so hard, he had so much fun with Chelsey. Sammy (dog), Chelsey, Ethan, and Grandpa played in the backyard, they colored, and played with Chelsey's Play-dough.

Sunday we made our way back home - boo hoo. Ethan is quite the travel companion - he talks the whole time, and sings along with me. Ethan also likes to yell at people on the road - hmmm, wonder where he got that from?

Monday we went to Blackberry Pioneer Farm, which is in our park district. It is small, but it's really fun. Larry had the day off, and it was the first, in a while that we all spent it together. Ethan and Dad rode the carousel, and he did well, til he thought I was being left behind. As we toured the museum and read the historic facts, Ethan was patient, and seemed genuinely interested.
