Saturday

Ashlyn went to visit my parents for the weekend.  We took full advantage of not having a toddler running around the house yesterday and cleaned out our laundry room, linen closet, master bedroom closet and bathroom.

In between nursing my baby, I also cooked.  Like a madwoman on a mission.  I now have 14 meals in our freezer - all kinds of yummy Rachel Ray recipes.  To be honest, I can't remember the last time I have chopped fresh garlic and cilantro.  It felt so nice to actually cook with real spices and seasonings.  I even watched a YouTube video to figure out how to deglaze a pan.  Don't you love the internet?

Meanwhile, my husband played dress up with Chase.  Gamecock football kicks off next Saturday, and Christopher needed to make sure that his son had adequate attire.  Dress up day with Daddy.  While I was sweating it out in the kitchen.  He pulled out all the stops - and I laughed so hard my stomach hurt.

Like me, you may be wondering if the toboggan is a necessary part of the outfit?  It is August in South Carolina.  But if you know the Newman clan, you know that no detail is spared when it comes to USC football.  My poor son.  Sorry little guy.  This was all your Daddy's doing.

Chase, though i don't agree with your choice of attire, you are the cutest gamecock i've ever seen.

I'm sure he will be decked out next weekend. He looks so much like his daddy!

Oh my heck, Anne, you mad woman, you! That is totally amazing that you cooked that many freezer meals! I have heard that is the way to go, but I have always been too lazy to actually *make* and freeze them! I'm impressed...and more impressed with Daddy and his love of his team!!! I'm pretty sure that those pictures are going to be family heirlooms (c:
