Counting Our Blessings: Football + Labor Day = One Busy Weekend

This past weekend was a very busy one for the Hays family. Saturday morning I left Shaun and Lillian sleeping and headed over to Alli and Korey's house so I could help them set up for their garage sale. Despite the rain it was actually a HUGE hit thanks to one very enthusiastic customer. Then I had to head home to get ready to go over to Meredith and Travis' house to watch the Auburn game- War Eagle! Of course Lillian and Bailey had a great time playing together, and we were sad when we had to leave at half time so that we could get Lillian home in time for bed. Sunday we had lunch at the Long's house and then went to Rooms -To- Go Kids to scope out some BIG girl furniture for Lillian. We are planning on moving her to a "big girl" bed within the next six months and just wanted to see what we could expect to be spending.

Labor Day we had my grandparents, Alli, Korey and Eli over for lunch and Shaun cooked some very yummy hamburgers. Lillian and Eli had a lot of fun playing with each other and spending time with their Great Grandparents. After everyone left Lillian was worn out -which is a rare thing- and she took a 3 hour nap!!

Oh, Lillian will also be starting her VERY FIRST day of Mother's Day Out tomorrow!! Technically she was suppose to start last Friday, but Friday morning rolled around and I just couldn't do it. I thought to myself, "I could take her to Mother's Day Out or I could continue to cuddle her on the couch and then go to the park!". Needless to say I chose the latter of the two. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to let her "go", but I have been having nightmares about carpool so who knows what will happen.

**Also on a sad note... Moxie went to live at a new home this weekend and so far everything seems to be working out. As much as we LOVED Moxie she was just to much for our family right now. A wonderful woman who teaches at Valley in Pelham took her, and she will be able to give Moxie the attention she deserves. Still, Shaun and I are both missing her right now.
