Spring Break Day 4 - Tuesday

Well, we were a little doubtful last night, but we made it to the zoo today!  Mason woke up fever-free, so we decided to go for it.  He had a good time - I think he was a little overwhelmed, but he loves animals so he definitely enjoyed it.  We got a wagon for Mason and Lewis to ride in.  They didn't spend much time in it until the end when they were getting tired!

 

 

Mason especially loved getting to run around and explore, but he was very good about staying close to us and not running off.  

 

 

 

 

By the time we were finished, Mason was tired of taking pictures, and this is the best family pic we could get!

 

 

And of course, as soon as the car started moving, Mason was passed out.  He slept the whole way home! 

 

When we got home, I took Mason to a Mary Kay party that a friend was having.  While we were there, I could tell he was feeling bad again - his eye was all goopy and leaky, and it progressively got worse throughout the evening.  Looks like at least part of Day 5 of Spring Break will be spent at the doctor...Day 4 was great though!

Spring Break Day 3 - Monday

Today, Terry and I did some Spring cleaning and cleaned out our closet!  Our closet is pretty small to begin with, but it was amazing to see just how much junk we had!  We were able to take 3 bags to hospice and tomorrow we'll take a huge stack to the consignment shop.  Here's our huge consignment stack:

 

And here's an after pic of my side of the closet - too bad I didn't take a before picture, but there's a pretty big difference!

 

Then, the time came to turn Mason's carseat around.  It was kind of a sad time for me, but I'm so glad we made it to 2 years old (almost) like we planned!  He thought he was one cool dude facing forward!

 

And here's another picture of the little man today just because I like it!

 

Tomorrow, we're supposed to go to the zoo, but Mason went to bed with a temperature of 101.8, so we'll see what happens on day 4!

Spring Break Day 2 - Sunday

Today, we went to Harker Heights to do a little shopping.  We were able to find a few cute things for Mason for his pictures on Wednesday, and we also found these:

 

He is the coolest kid I know!  =)

Spring Break Day 1 - Saturday

Spring Break is finally here!  I am so excited for a much needed break, and looking forward to spending some extra time with my family!

On day one of Spring Break, Mason helped his Grandpa work in his garden.  He was such a good helper!

 And of course after all that hard work, it was time for some fun! 

One Last Post for Today...

I've been hesitant to post this, due to the New Year's Resolution Disaster of 2011, but here I go.

I joined Weight Watchers...again!  A few years ago (2004ish) I was very successful on the program and lost over 50 pounds.  Thankfully I haven't gained that all back (well, I guess I did when I was pregnant, but it wasn't long after I had him that I was back to normal, about 25 pounds more than when I quit WW, thinking I could "do it on my own"...)  Anyway.  My brother wanted someone to go to the meetings with him, so here I am!  I'm in my second week, and so far it's going great.  The new plan is much easier to follow than the old one and I lost 5 pounds in my first week!  I feel good and I'm ready to loose 30 more!  =)

More Catching Up

Two (or three?) weeks ago, we went to Whistle Stop with the Scotts.  The boys had a great time as always, and we enjoyed ourselves too.  They LOVED watching the "choo choos" pass through, and we even got to see one up close!

 

Those boys love to play!  We had a great time!

Bad Blogger!

I've been such a bad blogger lately!  (Just FYI, I accidentally typed "bogger" and it made me think of "booger".)  Anyway, I just can't seem to stop being BUSY and when I do have a moment of quiet, I can't seem to pull my thoughts together.  So, here are some simple, one word sentences to let you know what we've up to lately...

Partying.

Shopping.

Coloring.

Driving.

 

Jumping.

Shopping. (Again.)

 

And now, you are up to date.  =)
