The kids and I had a great weekend on the Farm with Gma Pat and Gpa Gary. We arrived on Friday afternoon at about 4 pm. That night we went into the Hillcrest of supper. Eleanor got pretty tired but she toughed through it with the help of some puffs. That night Hudsen rocked with Gma in the chair for a while. I think rocking with Hudsen is one of Gma Pat’s favorite past times. Hudsen and Eleanor “slumber partied” in pack n plays in Gma and Gpa’s room that night. Hudsen is WAY too big for a pack n play but he LOVES to sleep next to E in one, so if it doesn’t bother him, it doesn’t bother me. He sleeps really well.
Saturday morning the kids and I went with Gma to Aunt Susan’s house for coffee. Tracey and Nancy were also there with Haley, Emily and Zach. Hudsen started off shy but within about 10 minutes him and Emily were running all over the place. He had fun playing with his cousins. After that Hudsen, Gpa and I went and feed the cows with Mike. Hudsen gets so excited to feed the cows. He throws the corn over the gate, or he holds on to it and the cows come to it. It is pretty fun to watch. He always tries to make sure that each cow gets a fair amount. This last time a black cow try to take one away from a white cow and he gave that black cow a little “talking to”. He is a very fair kid. That night we had enchiladas and watched a movie and just relaxed!
On Sunday morning, the kids spent most of the time either riding Tumbleweed or listening to Hudsen drum. It was very entertaining to watch. Eleanor LOVED being on Tumbleweed with Hudsen (and Gma holding on to her of course). She would just start bouncing as soon as she got on the horse. It was really cute. Hudsen loved it too. He also played us a song on the drums and sang Jesus loves me while he was drumming. There were a few other songs that were sung but I can’t remember them right now. We left Gma and Gpa’s around 10 that morning and were home around 12:30. Dad was SO EXCITED to see his kids and Hudsen and Eleanor were very excited to see him too. There were lots of hugs. (I was pretty excited to see Jarren too ;) Then Sunday night we went over to Brandon and Kari’s for supper with Morgan, Kasey and Isabella. All the cousins had a great time playing together. Hudsen and Payton did puzzles for most of the time. Hudsen did take a little tumble down the stairs when we were leaving but I think it scared him more than anything. He did get a little bruise and had some Tylenol but he only cried for a short time and still wanted to a snack for the ride home. We knew everything was ok then :)
All in all, it turned out to be a good weekend. The kids and I had a lot of fun and Jarren got a lot of work done while we were gone. Now we are back in the swing of things with the work week. Hudsen is learning about the Capitol City this week and the different workers who help a city run. He has also learned all the days of the week. Eleanor is continuing to “talk” up a storm and is eating cheerios and trying to pull herself up. My kids are growing up so fast!
