Special Playdate

On Tuesday, my dear friend Julie offered to take Jackson for the day. He was ecstatic to have a "big boy playdate" at Slade's house and I was so thankful for a day with just the two little boys. I got some awesome quality time with Weston and I even let myself take a 2-hour nap :)
Jackson had a blast. These two have been buddies since they were newborns :)



And they always love dressing up as super heros when they are together.



Weston and I spent the day playing and painting. After 5 minutes of painting, I was quickly reminded why I do not do crafts with him more often.

We had hotdogs for lunch (his fav thanks to Mickey Mouse) and read more books than I can count. I think I pushed him on the tire swing for over an hour and we just sang songs and did questions and answers while he went around and around. Its amazing how much he engages with both me and the baby when big brother isn't around to pester him. This boy is SMART and it was so neat to really see how much he knows without an almost 4-year old beating him to the punch.

Thanks Jules, for giving me a precious day with my sweet Weston!
