I bet you hate that you missed hearing Alex yell say some variation of “I DON’T WANNA GO HOME; I DON’T WANNA GO TO MY HOUSE” throughout our 2 1/2 hour drive this afternoon, huh?
It was LOTS of fun.
Apparently staying with grandparents and having Coke and pancakes for breakfast agrees with him. He doesn’t mind the pound cake for lunch, either. Or having an aunt and cousin around the corner who want nothing more than to take him swimming every single day. Or staying up so late that I’m embarrassed to tell y’all a specific hour.
But suffice it to say: laaaaate.
So the toddler was not at all excited about returning to The Land of Boredom, Home of Ye Olden Routine, though he did get a good bit better once he saw his daddy and had an “OH YEAH – that guy! I LIKE that guy!” moment.
Anyway, now I have laundry to do and phone calls to return and blogs to read (oh my sweet goodness at the blog reading – I need two days of solitude just to catch up). And a Bible study post to write. And a husband who hasn’t seen his family in about five days.
See y’all tomorrow.
Yaaaaay!! BooMama and Alex are home! This surely means more blog posts. I thought my bloglines was broken several times this weekend and today….Not a single new post for hours at a time. I was beginning to think I had somehow wrecked my bloglines, even though I haven’t touched my blog innards at all. I’m talented in geekery that way, ya know. I could really do that, without even trying. :)
After some family bonding and light embroidery and perhaps some macrame, PLEASE, PLEASE…OH, SWEET MERCY, PLEASE! POST SOMETHING NEW, BOOMAMA! Us’uns missed you’uns something fierce! ;)
Glad you are back! Sounds like you had a great time :)
YAY!!!! And I am glad you stopped by the garden!
And as for the Coke with breakfast? Ummmmm no I NEVER do that – really – I don’t – nope not me (it’s surly not my substitute for coffee…)
With every post I hold you in higher regard. You drove by yourself with a toddler to another state? And you didn’t stop to drop him off when he umm, requested that you do?
Sooooooo glad you’re back!
Welcome home! We’ve missed you!
Glad your back my bloglines have been acting up but I think it finally corrected itself today! Yahoo!!
He, he, he! Diane suggested you do some macrame! He, he, he! Just thinking of that thread made me giggle all over again!
Oh, and welcome back! But I’m with Alex Pancakes and Coke for breakfast and poundcake for lunch! Heaven! ;-)
Yeah is right I am glad you are home safe. I know you had an awesome time. Thre really is no place like home though….
I know a lady on the xanga site that I frequently read her blog, way before I started on blogspot, and she has mentioned her new Pastor being David Platt. She lives in Bermingham as well and I saw something about him on your site and that is really wild…..lol I just though I was seeing things,
Glad you are home
Oh and of course I will not say anything incase you would not like me too. Lol. I do not know her personally or anything, just a read.
This brings back memories of my own son after his visit to Grandma’s and Grandpa’s and a stay at the “special” cabin. When we told him we were going home, he said, “I don’t want to go home. Home is too regular!”
Welcome home!!
My son insists he wants to live at his auntie’s somedays too. At least they are loved and they know it!
Now ya’ll aren’t making fun of macrame I hope. Hmmm? Sigh. A lost art. Welcome home, Boo. When I go to bloglines, if there’s no new post from Boomamaville, I’m immediately convinced something’s broken.
My kids love their grandparents too! They don’t want to leave either. It’s just so much fun to be wild!
Hey BooMama- No, dear, you did not alienate me by saying that you went to MS State. My dad, sister, and brother all graduated from good ol’ MSU… (and hubby’s fam as well) Then my sister had to ruin everything by going to law school at Ole Miss… we still love her, though. As for me, I had to mess things up as well- and go to Mississippi College. My daddy never let me live it down. *sigh*. He didn’t talk to my husband when they first met because he graduated from USM..(just kidding), but he did say, “If you couldn’t go to State, couldn’t you have at least married someone that did?”. He eventually got over it… now he’s working on my kids. Sorry for the looong comment… thanks for stopping by.

Yay you made it home, a home with a loving man and mess of catching up to do!
(Pace yourself…)
Glad you’re back home. You’ll be back in the swing of things in no time!!
