Shopping and meeting lots of people!

Yesterday and today have been VERY busy days for Baby Fred.
Let's start by saying that three out of the last four nights Fred has slept through the night! Last night was the first time that I did, and imagine my shock this morning when I realized that it was not two thirty or three in the morning! Woah!
Yesterday Fred's dad, Fred, and I went shopping at the outlet shops in Allen. It was such a fun day to just walk the shops! I hated that I forgot the camera, Fred's dad looked so sweet carrying Fred in the baby backpack. Fred was enjoying being out and about and looking at all the interesting people that were there. :-)
When we got home the boys worked hard grilling some chicken that turned out wonderfully!

Penny was enjoying grilling also.

Then she got sleepy and wanted to watch some t.v.

After dinner Fred and I spent some time reading what he has dubbed as the book he will pay attention to the longest...

Reading "Slowly, Slowly, Slowly, Said the Sloth"

Then Fred spent some time in the Bumbo chair... Fred hasn't completely decided if he enjoys the chair yet, it's really a hit or miss.

As long as he has his hands these days, he's entertained...

Today Fred and I got going early, and we headed to pick up Fred's Grammy, then we went to Plano to pick up some parts for Fred's Dad's dirt bike. Then we went and met Fred's Dad for lunch with many ladies and gentlemen from his work. It was a very enjoyable lunch and Fred met many new people. We ran into Ms. Vera, who we had planned on seeing later that afternoon, and Fred was pleased as punch to meet her!
After lunch we ran a few more errands that included going and seeing Fred's Great Aunt Marsha. Trips to the bank are always a good time, and Fred LOVES seeing everyone there!
Today we finished turning in all of my things to LISD, and that included taking a trip to technology for some more visiting with the very nice people there! Fred and I both enjoy visiting there very much, everyone is always so nice!
After that our errands were finished, and it was time for some fun in Grammy's pool! Fred is really taking to the water, and that makes me so happy! I can only hope he'll take to thrill rides the same way when he gets taller! :-)
When we left we realized that poor Penny stunk worse than anything you can imagine. Thankfully Fred's Dad is so wonderful, and gave her a bath!

Penny sitting so nice! That NEVER happens!

Then it was time for some Guitar Hero Aerosmith (2 whole songs). It was so funny, Fred was close to his dad talking and kicking the whole time the songs were playing. I'm positive he's an Aerosmith song too! He's got GREAT taste in music!

What a long and busy day!

Isn't that a lovely feeling when you get a whole nights sleep? The only time I do is when the kids are at their grandparents house! :)
