Our week in review

Our week this week, was just as crazy as ever!

I thought I was all done with being sick, well with throwing up at least, but...I was wrong. I got sick again this week. Coke is so my friend. It really does settle my stomach and make me feel so much better. Eating is such a chore. I know that I'll have the hardest time losing my baby weight just like before because once I'm not pregnant any more, my appetite will be back with a vengance.

I did feel a little bit better though, I actually made dinner like 3 times this week. That is the most I have done in 3 months.

My belly is so big and has grown so fast that I have developed a little waddle. I know that it's only going to get worse from here on out. The baby was moving a lot last night while I was laying in bed and Chris actually got to feel a little bit of a flutter. It's so exciting!!!

Sweet little Addi had dance class again this week. She is so stinkin' cute. I love watching her dance. She is doing 3 dances at her recital this year. "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" for Ballet, "Men in Black" for Tap and "It's a Hardknock Life" for Jazz. I can't wait. Her recital is so much fun. It's at the TPAC, which is where all the broadway shows come when they visit Nashville. It's a pretty big deal.

She had to go to the doctor this week for an earache. I thought for sure she just had a regular old ear infection but when the dr looked in there, her ear canal was bright red. She had tubes put in when she was 1 and the tubenever came out of the canal. It was stuck in the wax and had embedded into her canal. Ouch! So the dr used a water pick and got it out. Addi thought it was so cool. The procedure didn't hurt her a bit, she thought it was funny that her ear got a shower.

Mason has soccer practice on the same night that Addi has dance class. So I usually go to dance and Chris goes to soccer. Today he had a game. He was so funny. He still doesn't quite get the concept. He thinks if he kicks it once he's done. We kept telling him to be aggresive and go after the ball. I think his favorite part is having a drink at half time and the snack after the game.

He got his report card this week. The only thing his teacher said is that he's a great student. We're so proud of our buddy and so glad we made the decision to go with this public school. He is going on 2 field trips this week. On Tuesday he's going to the zoo and on Friday he's going swimming at the YMCA. He is so pumped!!

Chris had a pretty crazy week at work this week. He ended up coming home late (after 5:00pm) 2-3 times this week. I am so spoiled and have gotten used to him being home before 5:00 and I really don't like it when he comes home after that. On Friday, he had to go to the dentist for more dental work. He had to be sedated for all the work. It's so funny to see my big,tough honey so out of it. He's quite sore still today, but hopefully he'll be better soon.

That's it for us for now! We wish you all a great week!!

Easter and stuff

Happy Easter everyone!

Look how cute our family looked this afternoon before church. We are all dolled up in our Easter Sunday best. Addi was super cute with her dress, her makeup, and of course her gloves. Mason wanted a big boy tie like his dad. Dang...Cute Kids!!!!!

Mason also played in his first soccer game this weekend! He is on Team Ireland with 2 of his friends. He loves it. But he doesn't quite understand the concept of running after the ball to kick it into the goal. But never the less, he ran around like crazy. Chris and I laughed our heads off watching all those little kids running around in confusion. The other team scored 3 goals right in the first 5 minutes of the game so we thought it was going to be a blow out. But our team caught up and it was pretty much a tie.

Good weekend!!!

Blogs

I love to read other people's blogs. I love to peep into their lives and see the way they live. I love how funny and creative other people are. I like the think of myself as funny and creative too, but when it comes to blogging, I usually have no idea what to talk about.

If I were to talk about what's going on right now, that would be:

1. I am still so sick and am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO tired of it. I am so grouchy. I can't even stand myself, so I'm sure no one else can stand me either. I especially like when someone asks me how I'm feeling and I say that I'm not feeling so well and they say, "Well, you're in your second trimester now so I'm sure you'll be feeling better soon." um...yeah.

2. My kids are sooo bored. I'm bored. I don't have the energy to keep up with them. Today we went to McDonalds after school. (we are having a cold front and it's too cold for the park). I was so tired when we got home that I had to take a nap. All I did was sit there, reading a magazine, watching them play. How could that make someone tired?????

3. Addi has the worst allergies right now. I finally took her to the doctor to get some medicine and she is finally doing a little bit better. She still sleeps with me occasionally and her a Chris have a regular chorus of snoring. so fun!! Tennesee is supposed to be the allergy capital of the world.

4. I took my first engagement pictures the other day. It was for a couple in my ward. They are so in love and so cute. It was so fun to take their pictures. All I did was observe and snap pics as they naturally interacted. I loved it! I think they were pretty happy with the pictures too.

5. I can't believe it is already almost Easter. My kids are so excited. We went to an easter egg hunt on Saturday sponsered by our city. There were mostly marshmellowy eggs to be collected that our kids don't like. And they didn't get any of the prize eggs. So we had to come home and put on a little Easter egg hunt here, so they could get some prizes. Man, they are spoiled. :) I wouldn't have it any other way. :)

I guess that's it for now. Have a happy week!!
