What a weekend!

This was a crazy weekend, to say the least. The craziness started Thursday evening when our babysitter's dog got out of our yard. Brian and I were at drama practice and I sent him home to make sure everyone was alright. The babysitter was very upset, as were the boys, so Brian went out on foot and then in the car to look for Caesar, the puppy. No luck! So then we all went out Friday morning until around 10 to look...the boys were so cute, calling for Caesar. Hunter said he couldn't call for Caesar because he was afraid he would cry like the night before. I love that he is so sensitive. We put up posters all around...someone has to have this dog.

Friday was also our anniversary...11 years...I can't believe it! We went to Outback Steakhouse for dinner...nothing too exciting. When a friend came to watch the boys for us, Hunter says, "Hey, have you seen a weiner dog? His name is Caesar and he's missing!" Again, too sweet!

Sunday we went to a birthday party and Fred Flintstone made a special appearance. The boys thought that was too cool. They just recently were introduced to the Flintstones, so this was a very special event. It seems like we did a lot more than this for as exhausted as I was Sunday night, but this is all that I recall.

Just for laughs (for someone, I hope): Last night at dinner, Garrett's affinity for the word "poop" and it's variations (poo, stinkies, etc) and other potty words got the best of me and Brian. Every other word out of his mouth seemed to be "poop" but for no apparent reason, other than he thought it was hysterical. He was informed that he was not to say that word or any variation any more, especially at the dinner table. He promptly starts whispering something, so we bit, and asked what he was saying. He said, "I'm singing the Winnie-the-Pooh song!" My comedian 3 year old had gotten us. He found a way around our restriction. I have to tell you it is hard, if not impossible, to keep a straight face around this kid. I don't like to lose, but especially not to the wit of a 3 year old.
