Memorial Day Weekend

We've had a very productive Memorial Day Weekend!  After our "Sacred Saturday Routine" (Gym/Bub, Little Gym, Lunch at Padow's) Buggy and I hopped in Pearl and took a ride to Camp Gigi and Babu's for the weekend.  I did a "drive by Bugging" and quickly dropped Hailey off for the rest of the weekend so this Mama could get caught up on her N&R...nesting & resting!  Not, of course, until after I got a relaxing pedicure for my swollen preggo feet, while reading my newest Us Weekly!  While Buggy was busy chasing around the "Poppies" and learning new words like "ga-nuts" aka donuts, I kept busy scrubbing baby equipment, installing car seats, washing baby clothes and *stocking up our freezer.

*for those lovely weeks ahead when I can barely function from lack of sleep, let alone prepare my hard working husband and picky, I mean "selective eater" (my most recent book, Raising Your Spirited Child, provides many suggestions for the numerous somewhat negative sounding adjectives to describe wild-donkey-like, I mean spirited kids!) daughter a home cooked meal.  

Doug was able to get some work done in the office so that hopefully when Lainey decides to join this crazy nuthouse, he'll be able to take some time off.  It was nice going to the gym together (without having to leave one ear open for the girls in the Bub to page one of us because Buggy is sweating so much, and they think she might be getting sick!   No.  That's just Buggy's natural "glistening glow!")  We also got to have dinner together one night, and have Coldstone outside for dinner another night!  Even though we both missed our little nugget terribly (we almost drove to the 'burg to pick her up early on multiple occasions!) it was nice having time for ourselves, since that window of opportunity keeps getting smaller and smaller as D-day approaches!

After I picked Buggy up from Camp Gigi and Babu's we stopped by Daddy's work to run around and visit Daddy.  Now it's time for a nap, and then some burgers on the grill for dinner. 


I think she had a good weekend!


Bug at her favorite summer camp, Camp Gigi and Babu!



Visiting Daddy at work.


Hugs for Daddy.


Kisses for Daddy.


Helping Daddy with his latest deal.



Doing her usual laps around the office.


Playing air hockey against Daddy...and winning!


She realized it was much easier to get the puck in the goal if you climbed up on top of the table!


Checking out the foosball table.

The highlight of this visit to Daddy's work was definitly the "Weegle Machine!"


Mmmm!  Weegles!

It's a shame they don't look anything alike...

Discussing deals, books, and Excel spreadsheets while walking with Daddy.


Bug loved that her Daddy had so many pictures of "Hay-wee" up in his office.

Going for a spin in a box...because she can.


Showing their support on Memorial Day.

Checking out the pretty "wata" views from Daddy's office.




I'm pretty sure the other Harris Williams Employees don't run on the board room table, but Buggy did...because she can!




C.E.O Buggy getting ready for her next big conference.  The topic of discussion is going to be on Weegle Machines, and how she can persuade her parents to get one in her house, ASAP!



"Look!  My Daddy has his name on his door!"

Waiting for the elevator (she loves pressing the button!) after a long morning in the office.

High fives after a successful workday!

As soon as we got in the door, she spotted the baby swing.  I couldn't believe that she didn't try to climb in it!  Instead she just walked up to it and said, "baby!" 


It was nearly impossible to make it out of Kroger this morning without picking up Buggy's latest food find, "ga-nuts!"  (Thanks Gigi and Babu!)


Happy Buggy!  Fortuntely her scar is getting better and better each day!

I asked her to say cheese, but she thought I said "ABC's" so she proceeded to sing her ABC's instead and play music on the Little People's guitar!


Hope y'all had a great Memorial Day Weekend!  We sure did!  *Let the summer begin!! 

*but don't let it get too miserably hot and sweaty until after I pop this baby out please!!
