Long Weekend

            Labor Day Weekend. In our parts that means one thing: Newington Fair. Although I'd have to say it was a little weird without my good friend Chelsea there, it was a great weeekend. Friday night mom agreed to babysit the little one so her mommy and daddy could have a night out. We went out to the fair for the Demolition Derby. My cousin won 150$ in it...too bad we could hardly see him win, I think you'd have to get there at 3 in the afternoon to get a seat. Every year I say *this year im actually watching the derby* , then I get there and remember why I never do. So we spent a few hours after that in the Beer Gardens. I had a few beers, maybe one too many (hehe) , saw a bunch of people I havent seen in a long time, icluding my cousins I only ever see at the fair. So it was a good night. Charley was good for Nana too and actually slept.
         Saturday, as a result of me maybe having one too many beers the night before, we slept in a little. Decided to go back to the fair with Charley, I bought her an adorable Moose hat, that won't fit her for years to come but I loved it. Then came home for an early night.

                Sunday, the day of the baby contest OF COURSE it had to rain. It did clean up but by the time we would have gotten there it would have been to late to register. We decided to go to Ottawa and venture into Babies R Us. WELL that was a HUGE mistake!! I never having been before wanted EVERYTHING! definietely should have gone before I had Charley! Anyway Charley slept through the whole day like a good lil baby.  We then came home, realized we were starving and hadnt taken anything out for supper.

            We decided to go to Kelseys. I still have a lot of anxiety about going out in public with a baby, especially one that likes to be as *vocal* as Charley does. However after going to Kelseys alot of that anxiety was lost. She was awake and good in her seat most of the meal. Then on mamas lap. Looking around there was a LOT of other baby's being fussy and moms and dads pacing up and down the isles with them. Made me feel better. Plus that place is so loud even when she did let out a few crys I'm sure noone heard!

             Today we're just being lazy and sittin around the house, some how baby things have managed to cover my entire house. I guess at some point i will have to clean. It was a great weekend, and hopfully will be a good week too. Especially since school is starting tomorrow!! YAY!! *ITS THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR* !!!!!  BAD stepmommy. lol .



Hope everyone else had a swell weekend too..sorry if soome of this didnt make sense, I may be drifting off and dont remember one sentence to the next. Zombie Mom.
