Weekend bliss

When I decided to become a stay at home mom, I wasn't sure if I would still look forward to the weekends as much as I did when I was teaching. I mean, if playtime is everyday for Porter and I, would the weekends be all that different? Well, yes! Having daddy at home after him working so hard all week makes for one happy mama and baby! The only downfall...daddy at home is just so exciting that Porter can't seem to want to take a nap :) And boy does that change things! Either way, we sure did enjoy our weekend of playtime with daddy. And it was our first weekend at home in quite a while (literally, we were gone every weekend in June, yikes!) which made it even sweeter. Being on the road makes the simplicity of home that much greater! When we first got married, I loved planning road trips and weekend outings. Becoming a mom has made me quite the homebody, which I even find funny! And hey, being at home leaves more time for moments like these...

In all of our weekend fun, we did make time for one exciting outing...the ice cream store. (All Porter's idea, I promise!) If you live near Charlotte and haven't been to the Cabarrus Creamery then all I can say is you're missing out! They make all of their own ice cream and amazing doesn't even begin to cut it! They have lots of unique flavors and I tasted one that I am certain will be in Heaven! Yes, it's that good! Moon pie ice cream!!! Wow! I don't even love moon pies, but Sean does so I thought I'd try it too. Umm, there may or may not be some in our freezer right now ;) I've never bought and brought home ice cream from an ice cream shop because it's usually a lot more expensive, but this ice cream was worth making an exception! Yumm! I'd say you could come over and have a sample, but I can't promise that there will be any left for long. Yes, ice cream is a safe gestational diabetes bedtime snack, I promise! I'd love to say I haven't started looking forward to my bedtime snack for tonight already (yes, it is 10 am) but that might be a small fib ;) Anyways, get yourself to that ice cream store asap {and you could probably tell them that the pregnant lady that was in yesterday and sampled almost all 25+ flavors sent you, don't judge, I'm growing a busy little girl!} and have a marvelous Monday!
