Weekend Rewind

Here's our weekend rewind!

We received about 4+ inches of snow by mid-morning.  Matt was supposed to fly out to Phoenix, but his flight was canceled.  He and his boss found a later flight that was still on track, booked it, and went on their way.  Thankfully, the roads between here and the airport city were clear enough to travel safely and off they flew!  After a long layover in Philly, they finally made their way to Phoenix.  Meanwhile, Mom, Asa, and I continued to work around the house.  I was supposed to have a check-up for Anna Reaghan, but it was still very snowy at that point, and I try to avoid going out in the snow if Matt's not in town to rescue me if needed!  I called and they rescheduled me for this week.  Instead Mom ran out to run a few last errands for us while Asa napped.  By this point, we were completely out of the townhouse as of Thursday (THANK YOU, MOM!!).  We had a relaxing evening at home, Asa enjoyed a bath in his BIG new bathtub (well, it's in the master bathroom, but trust me, Asa has claimed it), and Matt's trip was off to a good start.

By Saturday all boxes were unpacked!!!  We got to have more of a play day.  When Asa got up from his nap we went out for some lunch and to order a wedding gift.  We picked up some take out to reheat for dinner later and came back home to let Asa try for another nap.  It was a no-go, but that meant he was ready to go to bed at a daylight savings time adjusted bedtime. :)  Both nights, Mom and I watched an episode from Avonlea season 1 (girly sigh).  Matt always teases me about that show, but who wouldn't love more sweet story lines on Prince Edward Island after reading and loving Anne of Green Gables?!

Sunday:  Mom headed out for TN in the morning and Asa and I got ready for church.  Matt boarded a plane to come home to us--yea!!  I took pictures of the house to upload to Facebook--I'll try to post some here soon, and Asa was realllllly excited to have Daddy home again (it was very sweet).  Asa walked around showing Matt various cars he has stashed in different toy places (as if Matt hadn't seen them before!  Ha!). After Asa's rest time (he never slept--thank you, time change), we had dinner and then we went to play in the basement so Asa could show Matt the fun rice in his sand/water table downstairs.  After Asa was in bed, Matt caught up with his parents and we received a WONDERFUL call from his boss telling him to stay home and hang out with his family on Monday to catch up from the move/his weekend trip to Phoenix!  WOO HOOO!

It was wonderful to have Mom's company and help during the move and unpacking, and she even stayed a couple extra days when we found out Matt was booked last minute for the Phoenix trip.  But we are thankful she made it back home and that Matt is back home with us.  We get an extra day with Matt today to boot!  What a blessing all around! :)
