October 19

We spent most of my birthday at Oklahoma State. It was homecoming, so we were all decked out in our OSU gear. We got there early (for dinner) to get our name on the list at Eskimo Joe's. At 5 there was already a 2.5 hour wait. Jerry and the girls were with us and Jerry wanted to walk around campus.

He graduated from OSU and Olivia, who is 9, says she wants to go there too. Of course, Jerry was amazed at how much the campus had changed. We saw all the construction on the new stadium and of course the cranes caught Hampton's eye.After our trip around campus, on our way to pick out a new OSU shirt for Olivia, we stopped to watch the band. Hampton was mesmerized...uh oh!!! We still had time to kill before dinner so we walked around to look at some of the homecoming house dec. Hampton was tired of riding around in his stroller, so Sweetie stayed in the common area with him to play. Pretty cute little OSU football player, huh? Dinner was great because it was really loud so no one could hear H. We sat at a tall table so he had to sit in his stroller below us. He did really well though. He thought he was so special when he got to finish Carolina's lemonade out of her BIG cup...it's the simple things right.

Hampton got a little fussy during the walk around because he was EXHAUSTED. No nap + 9:30pm + super stimulation = asleep before we could get his pjs on him. Sweet boy! The best seat in the house...
