Weekending

Fairly low-key weekend here at the Heckman household.
The older boys were supposed to go camping on Friday, but it got cancelled due to rain. Payton spent the night at his friend's house instead (heard they stayed up until 10:45 and got up at 5:30????). Then we all went to his baseball game Saturday morning.
He had another great game. We were so proud of him cheering on his friends on the opposing team. He has really grasped the idea that the most important element of team sports is the "TEAM" part. He loves his teammates, and he supports his friends, even when they are on a different team.

 After the game Saturday, we just hung out at the house. Payton has his buddy over after the game and then another neighborhood friend joined in on the fun.
They spent an hour making some sort of car track or something...

 Parker on the other hand, was more interested in playing with Daddy. I think he realizes that when he has Brian's attention, he needs to take advantage of it. 
He had no interest in playing with Payton or his buddies. He just wanted to play with his Daddy.


 Of course he had to start some kind of mischief...

 Remind me again when we grow out of the "everything-goes-in-the-mouth" stage?!?!
 Then he started playing peek-a-boo with me and was all irresistibly cute...
Sunday was a pretty typical day around here.
I got to sing at church this week, which is always such an honor and privilege. And once we arrived home, Parker was so pooped he took a 2-hour nap.

The latter-part of the day involved a trip to Starbucks on our bikes...
Enjoying a decaf and a chocolate chunk brownie with my big boy:
 And Parker and Payton shared their treats with each other. Parker actually scooted Payton aside in his chair so he could climb up and sit with him. It was SO precious!
 Then the boys played a rousing game of peek-a-boo while the grown-ups finished our coffees...


 A brief stop at the park on the way home capped off a busy Sunday. We headed home for baths and an early dinner and bedtime.
Now... the house is quiet and temporarily clean.
Time to go rest up for another busy Monday!
Have a great week everyone.
