Busy Weekend

Wow I have not written a post since Wednesday. We had a busy weekend and I did not get a chance to post. Tim's hometown had their annual carnival this weekend so we were staying with his parents. His father runs the french fry booth and we help him with it. I feel like a big french fry after, but they are good. Fresh dug potatoes and fresh cut fries = yummy. Tim worked the booth on Thursday and Saturday while I watch Mason.
I sent Tim a text with this picture to show him we were doing fine alone. Mason seems to really like laying on his tummy. So we try to do tummy time a few times a day. I got a chance to get out of the house Friday and help. Saturday Mason got to go to his first parade. This was the first time I used the carrier. I liked the carrier, but my back hurt after 90 minutes. I think it needed to be tightened and a little higher, but it was the first time so we will know next time.
Our first weekend staying away from home was not that bad. We had to bring a few more things than we would have before, but Mason was great and I think Tim's parents enjoyed having him around.

Mason even got to stay in the same bassinet that Tim used as a baby. He also got to see Bailey - She was very protective over Mason, even when Nutmeg tried to get near him.
It was great to be home last night. I love the along time I get with my two guys now.
This made me smile. Tim  put the monkeys near Mason to watch him.
This face is great :) He is such a cutie

I cannot believe it is Monday already. I have lots of stuff on my to-do list today and I have started to make a dent in it already.
- I put away my maternity clothes. Three weeks ago I could not wait to get back into my normal clothes and out of maternity clothes. When I was putting the clothes away I was a little sad it was all over. I actually liked being pregnant for the first 7.5 months, then I got uncomfortable. All of the clothes are in a tote ready for the next pregnancy - which will not happen for a few years.
- I started laundry. We did a load last night of baby stuff and Tim was nice enough to fold it all while I was feeding Mason.
- I put away clothes in the bedroom that have been hanging out all over the place.
I feel pretty productive today so far. Mason is sleeping in his swing, so I am able to get a lot done.

I weighed myself again this morning and was happy with the number - 200.4 lbs - that is 4.4 lbs down from last week. I know I should not be worried about my weight right now and I am not focused on it. I just want to get in the habit of checking my weight on Mondays.
I was thinking about starting to walk again today. I am not going to start at 3.5 mph nor am I going to go as far as I normally would. I was thinking I would watch a show on the DVR - 40 minutes and try the speed at 2.0 - 2.5 mph. I am feeling better the last few days than I was. Wish me luck.
