We've Had Fun, But I'm POOPED!

Ok...bare with me y'all....this post is RANDOM!

We have had such a fun week, but this Momma is tired...I'm secretly glad no one has called us today to go out and do anything. I'm ready for a lazy day around the house in my pjs!

Monday was a typical busy day with things leftover from the weekend to finish and do. I had a few days of my BSF study to finish and after rest time we made our way to the park. We met one of the MOPS moms and her son to go walking. We were at the park for over 2.5 hrs- which is a long time for us. The boys had fun playing and then riding in the stroller while S and I walked! It was nice to just get out and enjoy the sunshine and chat with a girlfriend!

Tuesday we had a MOPS playdate, but since it was indoors at Chuck E. Cheese's on such a beautiful Spring day, I decided to do something else. A few of us MOPS moms kinda had the same idea, so we all met up at a park and we played- again- for over 2 hrs....until lunch time. A couple of us then headed over and ate at ChickFilA and let the kiddos play for a little while. I was TIRED by the time we got home. It was late and the boys were tired! Thankfully we got our naps and were all ready to meet Daddy at MOE'S for Kid's Nite (kiddos eat free here in town) and a quick trip to Tarjey to get me some jelly beans and Peanut some Tylenol.

Speaking of Peanut, he is cutting two molars- on the top- one on each side. Bless his heart. He's just beside himself. If I couldn't feel the teeth poking through, I would think he had an ear infection or something else. He is never this cranky. Poor Nana is praying that this teething is over by May when she keeps the boys while we go on our cruise.

And, speaking of cruise, it is so funny how many people have come up to me and said- "Heard ya on the radio!" I mean, even people that we don't really KNOW have stopped me and said, "I knew I had heard your name before or knew who you were! You won the cruise!" Its been sorta of fun, but also kinda humbling, because SO many people entered that contest and WE WON! Makes me want to put everyone in a suitcase and let everyone enjoy this trip with us. But seriously, our friends have been so wonderful and excited for us! Everyone is so happy and can't wait to hear about our trip!

On a different note, I found out yesterday that another friend is PREGNANT! I am SUPER EXCITED! I won't tell who...because she'll tell soon enough, but I am SUPER excited! The baby will be about 2 mos younger than our newest addition! Our kids already play well together and this is just another one to add to the fun!

On a TOTALLY different note, stop by Dana's blog and say a few prayers for Chloe. I know Dana would greatly appreciate lifting up her daugther in prayers. Chloe is so vivacious and fun and bubbly! The idea of something being wrong with her precious heart, just makes my heart break for Dana. So, go by and read all about what is going....

Speaking of children, I'll be 15 wks on Friday and boy! its going by so fast! These kiddos wipe me out every day and by the end of the day, I have to remind myself that I am REALLY pregnant....not just a lazy mommy! I think I have finally recovered from our weekend ordeal with painting, etc. It took me a GOOD week of LOTS of sleeping to get over those few late nights. I have a doc appt next week and I get to have a sonogram! Yippee! Its so exciting to get so many...of course, I don't want anything to be wrong and thankfully, the insurance company is paying for all of them, but its still so much fun to see my darling baby......and I still think its a boy! I actually told a friend yesterday that I REALLY think its baby B. Not sure why, but I just have this feeling. I did tell the same friend that if it turns out to be a girl, I'm gonna have to take a sit for a little while and let it sink it. Just not as prepared for a girl as I am for a boy! And, again, the thought of never holding a baby boy again, makes me sad.....but we'll see! God only knows what is in store for our family! Oh and one more thing, I am at that awkward and awful stage of pregnancy where I look like I'm gaining weight, but still don't have the look of pregnancy yet. Some britches are getting incredibly uncomfortable and the maternity pants just don't FIT... too big. Ugh! I need to invest in some drawstring capris or something. I did realize that after looking through my maternity stuff, I need some shirts. I guess I'll do that next week. I have never NOT worked at the beginning of a pregnancy, so whatever I've had has been MOSTLY working clothes. This is strange to be pregnant and be able to wear the same thing every day and be comfortable!

Since I haven't said a SINGLE thing about Bubbie, I guess I should say SOMETHING about him.......oh! I have a good one! He has now nicknamed the newest member of our family- Baby Honk! We've asked him why and he just says that it is a good name. He is also telling me that this baby is a boy. Lovely! I have a baby Honk in my tummy!

The rest of this week will be more fun with possible playdates and another park/walking date with S again! It is suppose to rain today, tomorrow and possibly Friday, which stinks, but I think we'll be ok! Next week is another CRAZY week so any time this week that there is a lull in the activity, I'm A-OK with!

You HAVE been busy girl! I was planning on having a lazy day in my pjs and then the guy showed up unexpectedly to fix our fireplace. UGH!!

Cherish those play date times before any of your kids are school age. Whenever my older girls complain when Hannah gets to play while the other two do school work I say... "you know what we were doing when you were her age? Going to play groups, kindergym, the park, etc. because we had no responsibilities of schooling at that time." Those days were so much fun. These days are fun too, but a different kind. And your area has so many parks and activities to choose from.

The 2 hour playdate thing is pretty common with us; we usually have a couple every week with my 2 best friends. Fun but tiring! Hope Peanut's toofers come through soon and that the second trimester energy kicks in for ya!
