Uncle Dan's Visit

My brother Daniel came out to visit us last weekend. Actually he had just graduated high school two days before and was on his way out to New Mexico to work for the summer so he stopped through Denver first. But we were excited to see him and he was happy to be the first from my family to see Jacob, besides my mom.

We took him to lunch at Rodizio Grill downtown to celebrate his graduating, and it was great! Luke kept telling me about this Brazilian steakhouse and I was a little skeptical, but it was probably one of the nicest restaurants I've ever been to! And it was really fun because the waiters come out with slabs of meat on a stick and just come around and cut you off a piece right at your plate. So we got to sample like 15 different amazing pieces of meat and we just kept going until we were full! Daniel said it was a great graduation gift! :)

We also went to a couple parks downtown- we had a good, relaxing weekend!

Also, Dan was with us at church on Sunday and it was a crazy morning for Jacob. It is a poopey story though so if you don't want to hear dirty details then maybe skip this one, haha. But before church even started I went to feed Jacob and then soon realized I needed to change his diaper. But it wasn't until I got him on the table that I realized poop was everywhere, all up his back, all over the table, all down his pants... it was big. And so I pull out my wipes and I only have 2 left! But I manage to clean it all up and get a fresh diaper on him but of course I forgot to bring a change of clothes- he's never needed new clothes before. So I knew I was going to need to take him home real quick and change him but of course I left the carseat in the chapel and the sacrament had just started and so I have to wait until it was over to go in and get it. And so I had my naked baby with no clothes, not even a blanket to wrap him in because I left that with the carseat too. So all I had was my nursing wrap to cover him and when I finally went back in to get his seat he was crying and poor baby looked like this when I took him home:

Story is not over though. So after 35 minutes or so I get him back to church in a new outfit and now Luke wants to hold him. Within two minutes Jacob poops again and it's instantly all over Luke's white shirt! So I go out again to change him and was just thinking "thank goodness I brought another extra set of clothes!" But when I lay him down on the table I realize that I left my wipes at home when I restocked them! So I carry him back out and luckily I had a couple friends in the hall so they let me borrow some wipes. But now that he was on his last set of clothes and out of wipes I was just praying he didn't go again the rest of the day- which he didn't, until we got home. So the lesson I learned was- no more Pampers for Jacob, we'll stick with the Huggies.
