{Last} Weekend.

It’s almost been a week – better recap last weekend before it’s too late!

We had a great time relaxing – nothing too busy planned.

Saturday we went to a birthday party for Mazen’s friend Sophia!

It was fairy themed – M says hello to a fairy doll!

Sophia was the cutest happy baby – she totally knew it was her special day!

Plus tasted some great stout!

Sunday was the best! We “slept in” and ate oatmeal in bed. Matt usually sleeps in on Sundays and I make a big family breakfast for us when he wakes up, but after a particularly rough few nights on my end, I played with Mazen in bed while Matt made us hot bowls of oats and coffee.

After digesting, we went for a 5-mile family walk/run, which was awesome.

And went to hang out with our friends who were brewing beer

And then Sunday night we went to Karen’s house for a lovely dinner!

This was my best attempt at photography with a baby in my lap : ) Bacon-wrapped beef tenderloin, risotto, cheddar garlic and salads

Little Choogie Pie wore a sweater that a blog reader Cathy hand-made for him – so stylish! Thanks so much Cathy – we love it!

Karen’s other guests brought a rice pudding cheesecake with fresh fruit – delish.

  2. So glad Sophia had a nice birthday.

    I remember you unwrapping that beatiful sweater the week Maze was born, and now it fits him! So fun.

  4. Mazen is adorable!!!! I just love his smile! That first picture of him in the sink is so cute.

    Wait until his first birthday comes along. 🙂

  8. I love those kinds of weekends! 🙂 As I have just started knitting…I can totally appreciate the time that the blogger took to knit that gorgeous sweater for Mazen! I am still on my never ending first project…a scarf. I was on a 4 hr knitting marathon last night to be ready for my last knitting class on Sat…a hat. ( I missed the second class as I was away and am playing catch up) Tonight will see me on another knitting marathon to be at the point where the class is. Loving it! 🙂

  20. What a cute little boy you have on your hands 🙂
    Are your counters poured concrete? I would really love to do this in our house, but wasn’t sure of the longevity if you drop plates/cups etc on it.

  21. I gotta say I was on the fence before about who Mazen looks like “more,” and while I still see hints of Matt in him, in these pictures in particular he REALLY looks like you, Kath! Such adorable little cheeks he’s got…

  24. Mazen has such a great smile! Oh I miss that baby stage. Im pretty sure Mazen is responsible for giving many moms baby fever! 🙂

  27. Kath. I have been reading KERF for over four years now. I think this with just about every post you do, and there’s really nothing to be achieved, by me, in finally saying it. Well, except for hopefully putting a smile in your heart and upon your lovely face, but you have attained a beautiful dream of a life. You and Matt, very obviously through your dedication and consistent hard work, seem to be living a modern fairytale. I know we do not see every moment, and that you also are forced to bear with some quite harsh and unwarranted negativity at times. However, it is really difficult not to envy you! 🙂 Truly, I hope that you and your family enjoy life as much as you seem to! It would be hard to falsify I should think! I know it’s always nice to hear good things about yourself and we really all should compliment each other more in everyday life, but I feel so embarrassed! That’s just the way society conditions us now, I guess. Fear of the abnormality of being nice! 🙂 Sooo, now that I got that out and probably seem like a complete weirdo, I’m just going to stop my rambling there. I hope you have yet another beautiful day! 🙂

  33. I love the new format of your blog- it seems to be working really well for you too! Can you ask Cathy what yarn she used for that beautiful sweater?? Thanks!

  37. I keep waiting for a post that doesn’t contain drinking wine or beer! J/K I love those posts! Have you tried Sea Dog blueberry yet? You put fresh blueberries at the bottom of your glass before pouring it in. It. Is. The. Best. And totally up your alley (you know, fresh blueberries count for eating healthy) 😉

  39. The pic of Mazen in the sink… OMG! Sooooooo cute!
    I wanted to ask you about the salad (“Saturday night we dined on leftovers from the freezer – mac and cheese, BBQ and salads”). Looks like baby spinachs. What do you put on them?.

  48. I love that you ate breakfast in bed on Sunday!!! Sometimes our bodies need the rest and it must have felt so luxurious. We should all do that a little more often. 😀

    And that first picture of Mazen taking a bath is just the absolute sweetest. He has the most precious smile. 😀

  50. Mazen is so adorable in every single picture! He looks quite dandy in that sweater 🙂 Hope you had an awesome week! (And thanks again for replying to my emails! Visiting Great Harvest was so cool! [and yummy])
