Weekend Recap

We did a lot this weekend.  Well, a lot for us.  Saturday was an adventure in frustration.  After Silas got up from his morning nap we went to the flea market.  It's only open once a month and I love to go walk around.  We stopped by a garage sale on the way and I got Silas a cute pair of soft leather shoes and BBS#2 (Baby Boy Sunshine Number 2) a couple of onesies.  All for a dollar!  Gotta love a deal.  Then we had to stop for gas, and I slathered Silas with sunscreen while we filled up.  Finally we get to the flea market.  It's 11 am.  They do not open until 12.  There is no way I can stand out in the hot sun, pay $5 to get in, only to have to leave because someone needs a nap at 1.  Lesson I will hopefully learn one of these days: check the hours before driving 25+ minutes somewhere.  So we left.  I had been craving a Reuben sandwich so I decided we would just have an early lunch date instead.  The night before I had googled where to find a good Reuben and headed over to a restaurant on the other side of town.  Technically it's 2 towns over, but whatever.  Silas was not happy to be in the car.  So this is already frustrating and not fun.  We arrive.  The place is packed.  We leave.  Without a sandwich.  It's hot, the baby is crying, I want to cry.  So home it is.  We have spent 2 hours in the car.  We fill up the water table and eat cheese and blueberries.  And finally it is time for a nap.  We both nap.  At about 2 o'clock I hear the sliding glass door open.  It's my husband, with a Reuben.  God, I love that man.  It is the best Reuben of my life and I get to enjoy it while the baby is still sleeping.  Is there a greater joy for a mother of young children than the nap time snack? I don't think so.  The rest of the day was uneventful.  Thank goodness.  

Sunday was the World of Faeries Festival at the park near the house.  We went last year and Silas slept the whole time in the K'tan.  Love that thing.  This year I wore him again in our Maya wrap.  Naturally, I forgot my camera and my phone.  So no pictures of the Faerie Fest.  Le sigh.

The rest of the afternoon, after our naps, we played in the yard.

 He found a mud puddle and promptly sat in it.

This morning on our walk I found this shopping cart on the curb.  It was in a pile of other stuff marked "Free."  So I grabbed it.  The price is right and he kind of loves pushing it around.  

 

Then this afternoon I made this zucchini-tomato-mozzarella bake.  I'm going to make it again and this time I'm going to measure everything so I can share it here. 

That's all I've got.  I'm going to try to post this week about my workouts and what I've been doing throughout the pregnancy.  If you have any zucchini recipes to share please do, I'm up to my wazoo in zucchini.
