Pirate Weekend- Part 2

Friday night Josh and I put Wade to bed and then started cleaning the house. We got it pretty much all cleaned but the carpets look really bad and we did not have time to rent a carpet cleaner so we will have to go back next weekend to do that. The back yard looked really bad too so we have quite a bit of yard work to do!! I think we may leave Wade with my parents over night because it is so much easier and faster to get it all done with just the two of us. We left our house and headed to go tailgate around 10am. Wade had a blast. He was in heaven looking at all the pirate things. He would just point and smile and say "pirate." He even played a little bit of cornhole when we went to see Josh's college roommate. We went back to Scales Field house where the cheerleaders tailgate and Wade got to play with the girls some and eat some. I am so thankful that I used to coach cheerleading and that we are still friends with Susie and Nickie because it sure did make life so much easier to be able to go back and forth between the stadium and the field house. Especially when we needed to change a diaper or let Wade run around. We could have not asked for better weather... it was perfect. It was cloudy and there was a great breeze.

Wade did great at the game. We were so proud of him. He was amazed by the band, Peedy and all the noise. He just sat and stared with a big smile on his face. He even said "Go Pirates" a few times. He loved seeing Peedy on the field but did not want him to get near him!! My favorite part of the game was when everyone would clap and Wade would look around and get so proud and start clapping. (he had no clue why we were clapping but he loved it.) He usually goes down for his nap around 1230p but didn't even make it awake that long. He was asleep at 1225 and slept for 45 min. I don't know how he slept through all the noise. When he woke up he was so excited and sat right up and started clapping again. We took him inside for half time and let him run around a bit. He made it through the 3rd quarter and we left at the beginning of the 4th. He started to want to get down and play on the steps so it was time to go. We were shocked he did so well for so long; we didn't mind leaving early since we were winning by quite a few touchdowns!! Josh was so proud of Wade... I even had a few mom's around us ask who was teaching this little boy about girls so soon. Of course I just pointed to his dad. Wade would look down at Katelyn and Bayleigh who were sitting in front of us and just smile so big and wave. He loved it when they came up to play with him. He would just hug them and smile and even gave them a few kisses. Everyone around us was dying laughing including Josh. I almost died when he walked up to Nickie's mother in law who was in front of us and kissed her right on the lips. I think he was seeing all the attention he was getting when he would do this so he kept trying to do it. We are going to have to have a long talk with him when he gets a little older about all this kissing and hugging. Josh and I may make it to one more game but I think we may leave Wade at home so we can spend the night and hang out with friends after the game. We can't wait to take him to another game next year!
