Hey all you wonderful folks!
Life here is crazy, as usual. The Chessin grandparents are in town (NaNa and PopPop). Of course, Luke is getting spoiled as can be with them in town. He wakes up every morning and runs into their room for snuggle time and spends the whole day playing with NaNa and PopPop- giggling and having fun. NaNa brought tons of coloring books and MagicWonder/washable markers. I have never seen him quite so happy. NaNa also bought Dumbo, Monsters Inc and the Elmo movie.
Today, we went to Jake O'Connors http://www.jakeoconnors.com for their Sunday brunch. It is $14.95 for adults and $6.95 for children under 12. All I can say is 'phenomenal'. The brunch was just amazing. Made to order omelettes, flank steak, salmon, corned beef (the best ever), brussel sprouts with carmelized shallots, scrambled eggs with breakfast potatoes, Guiness beef stew, lasagna, waffles, pastries of all sorts, cheeses, fruits, salads, etc. Then, there was this to die for dessert table. Needless to say, it was worth every penny. We have often gone there for dinners, but the sunday brunch was something that we will definitely repeat again some day.
Mom and I went shopping at the Galleria mall. It was tons of fun to check out the stores and such. We were looking for a childrens table and found one that looked ideal at Gabberts until we looked at the pricing.... $1000 for a table. I think we will be getting a cheaper table and actually investing the remaining money into a college fund for Luke's education... Who in their right mind needs a $1,000 table for a kid?!?!?
Sorry that I haven't been writing much lately... I came down with an awful bronchitis and pulled all of the intracostal muscles in my chest... Uggg... Seriously, if I was a farm animal, I think they would have put me out of my misery.
Today, we are having pretty miserable weather. Rainy and dreary. The perfect day for a long nap... which is exactly what we all did.
Another thing that we did this weekend was continue our search for the next family truckster. Al and I tried out the Saturn Outlook, the Hyundai Veracruz and the Nissan Murano. I LOVED the Nissan Murano, but it seats the same number of people as my Nissan Maxima... so, I'm thinking that we may pass on it just because the extra seating will be vital as Luke gets older and develops friends who may want to come along to soccer games, etc. Plus, it is nice to be able to take one car whenever visitors come into town instead of being forced to have multiple cars to go to the same place. We'll keep you updated.
Alrighty... hope that everyone is well.
