What a somewhat enjoyable weekend it was..Minus the aching husband, and sick children it turned out to be alright! John got all 4 of his wisdom teeth pulled on Friday and like the man that he is, chose steak as his last meal that he would fully be able to enjoy until he fully heals. Duh. Steak. Who couldn't see that one coming from a mile away.
The before picture. After the operation John was woozy. It was quite entertaining actually. I was really nervous while he was waking up from anesthesia. He can say some pretty funny inappropriate things, but thank god he was well behaved. Of course though coming out of the surgery his 1st comment to the doctor was "You mean I can't have a bacon cheeseburger. You're the one who is right on top of a bar." Ha! The office is right on top of a bar. And it was lunch time. No food since the night before. Needless to say John was hungry hangry. And it smelled freaking wonderful!
After Jaiden's football game on Saturday we went to brunch with my mom. I decided to take 6 days off of work, so I would have some time to spend with my babies before the holiday madness. I will undoubtedly lose my noodle when holiday season starts. Lets just say wine is always the very 1st thing on the weekly grocery list.. Anyways, I was able to take a mini vacation over the weekend and through the course of the week. I absolutely hate working weekends or days in general, so weekends off for me are always a win! I get to hang with my mom, and hang with my babies, and almost always my niece. We encountered an odd character who was our server at the diner.. She asked if John Henry and Emma were twins and when we said "no, cousins." Her response was "1st Cousins?" and when my mom nodded her head yes, she said "Well then I guess they can't get married.." And then she proceeded to tell us a funny joke about dating cousins. It was actually very funny. But weird in the situation. Now we live pretty close to West Virginia where there are jokes that commonly go around about people marrying cousins, and all that, which I'm 100% sure happens. Side note: Watch the 1st season of My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding on Netflix. It'll answer all your questions about the aforementioned topic.
Saturday night Jaiden spent the night at my moms and went to dinner with my step dad before the FSU game came on. And on the incredibly rare occasion Jaiden will transform into a human garbage disposal. And when I say it's rare, like spotting a bald eagle rare. He consumed 6 slices of pizza, 2 bowls of pasta and 2 cinnamon rolls. The only things that Jaiden ever eats in mass amounts are rice, beans and fried eggs(all together) spaghetti, and green pasta(pesto spaghetti). So naturally when my step dad asked why he was so hungry..He tells him that I only fed him half a cookie that day. Which is only half true. Jaiden ate pizza, and 2 bags of snacks in between the alleged half cookie and Cici's. Little liar.
The next day was probably the best thing that Jaiden has ever done. I love to say that the events Jaiden, John and I have done have been this exciting, but I doubt it. Pops got 2 tickets to the Redskins game vs. the Titans. And let me tell you when I say Jaiden. Was. Elated. He has never been so excited about something before ever! And ever since then it is all he talks about. It was great! The seats they had were in the box suites, so it was all warm and cozy, all catered with food and drinks up the wazoo. They had the best time! I'm so glad that Jaiden has such great grandparents who are just as excited to share these moments with him as I am! But now going forward it's going to be rather difficult to beat those expectations... Pops took Jaiden to his very 1st football game and THEY WON! John told Jaiden that he was their lucky charm and he was over the moon that they won when he was there! I normally am not a Redskins fan, but seeing him so excited over their win just puts a huge smile on my face!
John, Baby John, me and Berkley spent Sunday relaxing, doing nothing. The family squirrel John was still not feeling 100% so he stayed home. I ventured to my friends house to hang out with her and check out her new place. Which is so great...And I had a good time. Except Baby John Cried. and cried. and cried some more. He has not been feeling great this weekend. So that on top of gas. I think pissed is a very accurate description of his mood.
Sadly as of today my vacation was cut short so I go back to work tomorrow..Wait,, Just wait for it...Well I guess no confetti and balloons will be falling from the skies today. But hopefully there will be one more weekend I can take before Black Friday...Keyword; Hopefully.
