Weekend Recap + WILW

Weekend Recap. Ready. Set. GO!

Friday: We had early release at 11:15 so I definitely took some fractional leave and PEACED the heck out. Came home. Got my little stinky monkey ready for our first road trip together. And we were off! I was so nervous about traveling 3 1/2 hours by myself with Ri. (I'm a worrier) We weren't even out of Boise and that little turd nugget passed out. But don't worry, about an hour later she was wide awake, with her party pants on. And when I say party pants I mean snack pants. All that was keeping that baby happy was snacks. And snacks. And more snacks. We stopped at "The Pit Stop" about 35 miles outside of AF and got her some French fries and that held her over until we got to Ben's house. She was soooooo excited about all the new stuff she could get in to. Not to mention, Ben has a giant yellow lab that she was instantly obsessed with. She went to bed at about 8:30 and slept for almost 12 hours!!!!

What a great co-pilot huh?

Saturday: Ri slept in until about 8:15, then was ready for a nap by 9:30 so we had a pretty relaxing morning. Got ourselves ready, went to the store to get stuff to make Ben dinner, then went to see him at his "work." (a field) Rilyn got to ride in the tractor for the first time and even got to "drive" which she thought was the coolest thing ever. She also helped Ben check the planter to make sure it was planting the spuds. She had a VERY important job. After about an hour and a half it was nap time so we headed back to the house for a relaxing evening.

"Mom, I don't know about this hair style."

 

See, she wasn't scowling the ENTIRE day.

 

Eating on the job.

 

Ri, taking her job very seriously.

Boy, she  had a hard day at work.

 

Getting ready for bed. (Don't worry, this isn't where she actually slept.)

Sunday: For Mother's Day, we all slept in and were lazy all morning. We finally decided to be productive and go to breakfast down at the Marina. It was yummy and Ri had a great time making a mess of her chocolate chip pancake (amateur move on my part). After breakfast and a quick (we are talking 20 minute) nap for Ri, we headed out to Ben's mom's house to visit. Rilyn was having a rough afternoon since she didn't get her nap out. Poor thing kept falling all over and bumping and bonking everything possible. She was feeling pretty sorry for herself the whole time BUT we had a pretty good time. :) It was soon time to head home, so we packed up and left. And guess what? Rilyn cried the ENTIRE trip. No joke. And did not even sleep for one minute. It was so much fun.

Only picture I managed to get on Mother's Day. I suck.

OKAY! What I'm Loving Wednesday! (I'll make it short. Or just stop reading. Either way. )
