For those who don't read me on Twitter, a selection of my tweets from the weekend:

Water bottle, n.: an ingenious device for entertaining your toddler. Preferred to those inferior devices known as "toys."

...also, luggage cart, n.: an ingenious device for entertaining your toddler. Preferred to those inferior devices known as "toys."

Drew got into the hotel's spinny entry door and went around and around, "pushing" it. He had a blast.

Jellyfish exhibit, n.: a device for getting your over-excited, over-exhausted toddler to nap. Also, weight training for Daddy's arms.

(As anyone who has held a sleeping toddler can tell you, true limp sleep weighs about ten pounds.)

Toddler attack. "No." "Do you like saying no?" "No." (repeat 4-5 times while mommy wishes she somehow knew to record)

Drew is playing with the clock radio in the room. He was very startled when he got music, then very happy.

He is not so happy that I keep stopping his attempts to jack the volume to ear-splitting. At not quite 9 am on a Sunday. Oof.

Spider, n.: a device for entertaining a toddler for hours while alternately amusing and boring the surrounding adults. HOURS.

The last gathering of the weekend that I was aware of/in, lunch at Culver's, is over. I want more time with everyone!

Normally if I say I want a do-over on a weekend, it's because it was awful. I want a do-over on this just so I could live it all again.

OverOverOVERloud restaurant: if you were quieter, you might have heard the whoosh of my family's business leaving. No love, Me.

Landed at pdx. Now to get luggage. Drew found his fuss this flight too. Poor guy.

Drew rode in the shuttle bus on the seat, with Mommy's arm around him. He had a blast staring out the window. Also, new word: "air-puh".
