Relaxing Weekend at Big Daddy and Nana's House

Colton and I had a very relaxing weekend at home this past weekend. Daddy was on the road singing and we missed him so much, but we enjoyed spending the entire weekend with Big Daddy and Nana. Colton was sick Thursday and Friday pretty much all day long with a bad ear infection and temperature. By Friday night he was finally feeling better so we meet Big Daddy and Nana at Pizza Hut for dinner. After not eating for a few days, Colton finally ate a breadstick and crackers with Ranch dressing at Pizza Hut. (Nana tried to give him a cracker without Ranch dressing on it and he threw a fit!!) After pizza, we headed to Big Daddy and Nana's house for the weekend. Saturday, Big Daddy and Nana worked out in the yard, while we stayed inside where it was nice and cold! Colton loved playing on Big Daddy's rocking horse. (This was dad's when he was a little boy)


Doesn't he look like such a big boy riding on the rocking horse??

After afternoon naps and showers, we headed to Chick fil A for a quick dinner before going to Uncle Steve and Aunt Melinda's house for a welcome home party for Jess. Jessica had been in Hungary for the past couple of weeks and her sweet boyfriend planned a "welcome home party" for her Saturday night. Little did we all know that Scott proposed Saturday morning to my beautiful cousin! I'm soooo excited for Jessica and we are thrilled that Scott will be apart of the family soon! With the help of Jessica's parents, Scott got the proposal on video and it was beautiful! Her ring is gorgeous as well!! Congrats Jess and Scott!!

Nana and Colton

My precious little boy!

Colton loved getting to play with all of his cousins Saturday night. The room was full of boys (Carson, Connor, Collin, Garrett, and Carter) and they all just love Colton soooo much. I'm sure that within the next few years, these boys will be teaching Colton how to play ball and all the other fun boy stuff!

Carter and Colton playing during the party.

Big Daddy taught Colton how to throw the ball a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if this was a great idea because he now throws everything!! Saturday night after the party, he threw a toy car at Nana and hit her on the head. Luckily she was okay!

Sunday after church we spent the afternoon at Big Daddy and Nana's house again. Colton was testing us nonstop the whole day!!! He got plenty of "pops" on the hands a few on the bottom from myself, Big Daddy and Nana. We finally had to start taking him to time out to get the point across to him that when we say "No" that he needs to stop doing what he was doing. He also has been throwing "fits" when he doesn't get his way. He has a temper like you wouldn't believe!! It looks like the terrible two's are fast approaching the Whitaker household!!
All in all it was a great relaxing weekend that we all needed. We're looking forward to heading to the beach in a few days with the entire family!
