A relaxing weekend...for both of us =)

So this weekend I decided to bring my nephew to Greenville with me. I always hang out with him, and I always have him spend the night with me on the weekends...but we never get to hang out just us...where there are no other kids around...and no other Grandparents/parents around....so this weekend it has just been me and him...minus the few moments with my friends. We have had an excellent weekend together. Last night we went to Deadwood with a few of my friends...he got the chance to ride the train there, and then we left and went to the ECU Hockey Game. He had a blast there also...we slept very well last night, with no babies waking us up this morning.
This morning we watched movies together, ate breakfast together, and then we both got cleaned up and went to "The Jumping Monkey"...He REALLY enjoyed himself there. I can't say I loved the commotion of the place, but if it made him happy...that's what matters. For lunch he decided he wanted to go to Burger King (gross, but okay)--so we had lunch together at Burger King, and then we went to the park to play. I am a little kid at heart so I really enjoyed playing with him at the park. It got cold really fast, so we left...and then he helped me cook dinner. One of the things he said that I absolutely loved was" I'm a good helper, I'm a great cooker"--it was too cute! I could see the excitement in his face that he loved being able to help me in the kitchen. I really love spending time with Ethan. Right now he's sitting here with his head on my shoulder playing with my hair, and we're watching TV together. The time I spend with Ethan is absolutely precious to me. My brother and his wife are coming to get Ethan tomorrow, and I won't see him for two weeks or more which makes me really sad--but I will survive...haha.
When Ethan was first born I didn't get to spend a whole lot of time with him because I was gone a lot...and my first year of college I wasn't around Him much either...so I am trying to make up for being absent as much as I can.
Anyway...here are some pictures of our weekend together!
