Last night my younger sister came over to hang out while Rod had planned to go on a men's retreat. After he came home, our youngest son was so distraught at him "leaving again" that Rod decided he would rather stay home and spend time with us. Work has been keeping him quite busy the last few weeks, so a night all-together was perfect. We enjoyed watching some fun movies with my sister and just relaxing together.
Took this morning to slowly begin the day. A little laundry and cleaning, but mostly relaxation. Around noon, we decided to head out for a few errands and our new favorite thing: Ingress missions. Initially, I was annoyed by another "thing" to add to our life....but it's really a great "game". Makes you explore your city (or wherever you are) and see things you might never have seen before. Great encouragement to get some walking exercise as well. Lots of family bonding. We got to enjoy the gorgeous weather, a beautiful park, and even get some pictures of the kids and I. Showcasing our approximately 24 week old little bean as well.
After lots of walking and fun, we headed home for a relaxing night. Obligatory laundry with a side of my favorite Spotify playlists (makes any chore better, in my opinion) then hoping to knit some more on my baby blanket for little bean and read some more on the new book I got from the library.
Oh how I love weekends that feel productive and yet relaxing!
