Nana & Pops visit!

Nana & Pops arrived very late Thursday night, and we had a fun-filled weekend with them! Nate was his usual entertaining self, and we were happy that the rain held off and we got lots of playtime outside. He got WAY too many new toys & books, but what else is new when Nana visits? And of course, Pops spoiled him with lots of "treats" ....oreo stix, sweet sixteen donuts, and a milkshake at Chic-Fil-A! Needless to say, Nate was sad to see them go this morning. I was too, b/c I like the help! And, Greg & I got to enjoy a much-needed date night on Saturday night: dinner AND a movie! We tried out a new hibachi grill place near our house - loved it - and saw "Angels & Demons" - also loved it.

Some highlights from the weekend include:

-Texting on Nana's new fancy cell phone
-Playing with his new Elmo vacuum : "Cleaning Crew, coming through!"
-Reading the choo choo train book with Pops
-"Nate night" at Aharts & McDonald's...he entertained Nana & Pops with his antics, wrapping noodles around his head and ears, etc.
-New bubble machine & pinwheels outside
-Helping Nana, Pops, & Dad plant some new shrubs & spread dirt
-Going down the slide (OVER & OVER) at the mall
-Reading 2 new potty books with Nana
-Going on his usual rampage after dinner - running in circle, dancing, being goofy. He is quite a ham when he has an audience!
-Going on walks with Nana
-Playing with the neighborhood kids & stealing pretzels
-Attempting to walk barefoot on the grass with Nana (NOT a fan, just like his Mom)
-Doodling in his new coloring book
-Playing at the Chic-Fil-A playground & sharing a milkshake with Nana
