What we've been up to.

Slacking on blogging again! 
With daddy away here's a quick post in what we've been doing: had friends and family come down to visit, a surgery, an emergency room visit, two sunset dolphin watching sailboat tours, first time at the movies, took the kids bowling for their first time, built a tv stand, and a cat structure. And of course, going to the beach. 

So far that's all I can think of. I guess part of me is happy that time seems to be moving forward, even if it's not as fast as I would like. 

Having a pretty routine schedule helps, I haven't been cooking quite as much since it's just me and my two little munchkins. 

Keeping the house clean and laundry is probably where I am slacking though. I hate putting clothes away. So I guess I should go and do that now.

Perfect weather day!

My weather app is telling me to get ready for those spring showers, so when I saw it was going to be nice this weekend, we took advantage and went outside! 


We spent part of the day at Rocky Bayou state park, which is just a couple miles down the road from where we live. 

We played at the playground, where Wilson ran into a friend from preschool. They had a lot of fun playing, and we walked on one of the nature trails. 

I should've changed my shoes, but it was a short trail and I managed to make it. We all wore tshirts and shorts and I remembered to shave my legs! 

The kids had so much fun, they didn't want to leave.

Spending Valentine's Day with these two.

The kids and I spent vday, with a trip to the park, Target, and Publix. 

Weather cooled down a little, and I thought it would be warmer, but when we got to the park, it was a little windy, which made it colder than it seemed. 

The kids had fun playing for a bit, and it's a nice little park. 





They ate lunch at the park, and after a little bit of running around, and playing, I had high hopes of getting to have a decent target trip. 

Muahaha! And it was. The kids sat pretty quietly, except for when we walked by the toy aisle, and at the very end at checkout. 

They both took a nap as I drove home, and after dropping off our target loot, we ran to Publix, and I let them look at the lobster tank, while I picked out some  stuff for dinner. 

Andy and I have had a tradition, (since having kids) to get sushi to go and eat it at home. So I had to continue it right? Even if he is thousands and thousands of miles away. 

My honey also surprised me by getting flowers, which he sneakily involved my in laws with, so that I wouldn't see any transactions. He's so cute.

Sweet sibling moments.

Oh yeah! Twice in one day! 

So at Wilson's speech session today, he asked his therapist if he could have two stickers, so he could give one to his sissy. 

He picked out a flower one, he knew she would love it, and came out, and put it on her hand. 

I thought that was sweet, that he actually thought about his sister. 

Then at bathtime, I asked them to give each other a hug. 

So sweet. 

What's not so sweet is the competition.
"I beat you! Nananabooboo!" 

Oh boy. 

Still here!

A couple weeks ago, Wilson gave us the gift that keeps giving: preschool sickness. He caught a cold, then Callie caught the cold, and then lastly, I caught the cold. 

Unfortunately for me, my cold has now turned into a sinus infection. Which is something new for me. The joys of getting older! 

The weather has cooled down a bit, but I'm a lot happier than last year, when it was so cold it snowed and we got ice. 

The kids are doing pretty good with dad being away. They think dad is at work. Which he is. But I don't think they really understand. 

Our cat has now turned into my new baby. I may have tried to wrap him up in a blanket and hold him like a baby. 

I'm still pretty sure I will never be a morning person. But when this is your bed, it's easy to see why! 

Cute kid and cute kitty snuggles!!

A couple weeks into it.

Here we are just a couple weeks in. It feels so long. I know we are just at the beginning, but could it go by any slower? 

The kids are doing really well. I don't know if it's a bad thing or not. I mean, Callie is already in her terrible 3's, so I'd like to keep hoping that she can't get much worse, right? 

We have our set routine for the most part, I'm still not a morning person, so that routine always seems to be : Rush to get dressed and hopefully didn't forget anything. 

Joined a gym, pretty much for the childcare so I can get a break, and attempt to not get fatter. They like going and playing. 

The house is in semi okay condition. 

Not going to lie, it's not the best, but we aren't living in absolute filth. 

I've come to accept that laundry will never fully get folded and put up. And I'm okay with wrinkly clothes. Who am I trying to impress anyways? 

We have had fun, and cuddling, and play time. I'm tired, but that's okay. As long as they are okay, then I'm okay. 

Also, my cat is an awesome cuddler. So at least I have that.
