Mom and Dad had bought two nights a at a local hotel during a silent auction at a fundraiser for the library and the expiration date was looming. The best part of this hotel is that it has a pool! So, they decided to make the most of it and we spent Saturday afternoon splashing around. For Nathan's first time in the "big water" it was surprisingly wonderful! There were no tears at all, and I think he actually enjoyed himself. We eventually got out, not because he was starting to lose interest, but because his lower lip was starting to shiver. The pool was warm by adult standards but a little chilly by infant ones. He even took a short nap in the bedroom of the suite while Zach and Leah spent some more time in the pool and Dad and I hung out on the couch in the sitting area. It was lovely, and Mom was great enough to take pictures.
On Sunday we did errands and generally hung out, though I got out of the house to grab coffee and go shopping with Sarah. No pictures form that but definitely a recharged battery.
On these beautiful days off I usually keep Nathan with me and spend some more quality time together, but on Monday after taking him in for a quick weight check (they wanted to make sure he recovered the weight he lost due to croup - check) I dropped him off with Cathy and took the day to run all of the errands that have built up over the last two months or so. I can't say it was glamorous, but my time at the mall to do some returns did result in me picking up a sweater for myself and new pillows for the couch, so no major complaints!
