Pesto Pasta and Pullen Park

Our week started out shaky. Drew got sick at the beginning of the week and then I got sick for a couple of days as well. I took him to the Doctor Tuesday because I thought he had an ear infection. Fortunately he didn't, just a bad cold. They weighed him and he's 31 pounds even! Wow! Everyone is back in action now and we've had lots of fun the last couple of days. Thursday we met our neighbors at Dairy Queen and Drew played with Blake and the many toys Blake brought with him. Then we went to Ace Hardware and got Drew his very own watering can to help me with the plants. He pretended to water every plant in the store before we left. It was so precious! After a long nap Drew woke up with a big appetite and ate his weight in pasta and garlic bread. He didn't eat much all week since he wasn't feeling well so I guess he was making up for it. Then Drew played all evening with his neighborhood friends and got a ride home in Blake's green jeep. Drew was sweet as pie all day and night but got a bit upset when Blake pulled out of our driveway in the jeep. Drew had tears pouring down his face. I guess he couldn't understand why his idol would drive off in the dream jeep without him. Poor Drewby.

Today we met Cristie, Tom and Whitley at Pullen Park in Raleigh. They have a train, carousel, and other fun stuff. Drew and Whitley were super sweet as we strolled around and they enjoyed all the activities! Then Drew and I hit Sam's Club for a few things and took advantage of their samples. Nothing like a well balanced meal while strolling the aisles. Their chicken quesadillas aren't half bad. Here's a few pictures from this week. Have a great weekend!

Drew taking a break from a yummy meal. He ate so much Trader Joe's red pesto pasta that George and I had to share ours with him :)
Thinking about whether or not to have a 3rd plate of pasta.
Swing time with cousin Whitley.
Riding the red truck!

Drew and I on the train. Drew was biting on his finger (we're still waiting on the 2nd molars).
Sister, sister, cousin, cousin picture on the train! Drew still biting that finger.
Carousel time. There's that finger!
