Well, another week has come and gone and we have made it to the end of March. Geez, this school year will be over in a blink!!! As for what has kept us busy this last week...let's recap...
The kids and I went to watch Hunter Sykes play baseball at MRA. He pitched a complete game for a W for Heritage. The kids loved cheering for him...and eating pizza and candy!
On Wednesday, the Nelsons came and got our yard looking presentable. A HUGE thank you to them for taking care of that!!! Thanks to another double ear infection for Walker and the raw bottom that follows closely behind due to antibiotics...not much sleeping was happening at our house! So, they took Walker back to Columbus with them for a few days so we could try and recover. It also allowed for some special time with our big girl. Ella Kate got to pick our activities and she was super excited. We hit up the park and painted all sorts of craft projects. We ate pizza and ice cream for supper and she even got to sleep on a pallet in our room.
Friday was bike day at the preschool. EK liked it for about 5 minutes and then sat in a chair for the remainder of the time asking when they would go inside for a snack. She's so outdoorsy and adventurous.
After bike day, we had lunch at the Greek place and had another paint session. We went by for a visit with Papaw and had dinner at the Trace Grill with my parents and Papaw. We did a lot of eating out while brother was away...it was like 8 million times easier and we were actually able to EAT the meal without wrestling that little stinker!!! J and I also spent a huge chunk of time completing our adoption training sessions hours 11-20. Glad to have those behind us!!! We will only have 10 more hours after we bring Emma home! Woo Hoo!
Bubba was living large in Columbus!!! I think he enjoyed his time away as an only child! He spent every waking moment outside and I am so thankful that the weather cooperated. And what is it about boys and thinking they need to go to the bathroom outside????? I am so not ready for this.
A major bonus happened on a trip to Wal Mart. The Fire Dog and Police Dog were there to greet the customers. Fire trucks and dogs are his Disney World. So, needless to say, he was thrilled!
I sure did miss my little guy (even though I did not miss getting up with him during the night!) but who does he think he is taking my drink???? I blame his love for coke on his Kay Kay who introduced it to him at the Mexican place months ago. Now, he thinks he should have it all the time whenever he sees me with a bottle. Sorry buddy. You may be the second child, but I'm not giving you coke just yet. Enjoy your milk!
EK had another birthday party at the paint studio and is so proud of her newest princess masterpiece. I'm afraid we may run out of display space before too terribly long.
Hope your Monday has been great!!!
