As I was enjoying the rare silence in my classroom Monday morning, I had this realization…Mondays are the worst.  You see the problem I have with Mondays are that it is no longer the weekend.  I know, newsflash to me, people have felt this way since the beginning of time.  But honestly I never used to mind them.  That was until I got married and had a baby.  Since then, I cherish every single one of them!  I mean, seriously, we get to spend every waking minute together as a family!  What could be better than that?!  In fact, I’ve been feeling like lately life is as good as it gets.

To put it in perspective, this weekend was nothing out of the ordinary.  We had a lazy Saturday morning of watching William pull himself up and walk/crawl around the house.  Then, we went for a family run around our favorite park and ended at the rec center for a swim. The best thing about the pool is watching Mike and Will swim around together, as I feel weightless in my 20 week pregnant self.   We Followed up our activities by lunch at our favorite sandwich shop.  And ended the day grilling brats and watching a movie together.  My idea of the perfect day!

Sunday was just as incredible.  We went to mass and to this AMAZING bagel place, that had the best ruben! The sandwich was so decadent that when we got home we took a 2 hour nap as a family!  After we got up, we went for a run and then to the grocery store to do our shopping for the week.  Ok, I know that wasn’t the most exciting weekend, but to me, it was perfect.

William is also at an awesome stage.  He is so joyful and curious! When I pick him up from daycare he gets the biggest smile on his face and crawls as fast as he can to me. He can pull himself up and hold on to the furniture as he walks around.  He also can eat everything now! I am constantly amazed at how quickly babies change!  I wish I could bottle up this stage and keep it forever.  Don’t grow up, William!
