Happy Tuesday






Well, we made it through school vacation week. !!!!! (enter sigh of relief here) I think the hardest part is trying to finding things for Aj to do. If he had it his way, he would spend the entire vacation playing video games. I feel so guilty when he is playing those games because I feel like that is a missed opportunity that him and I could spend some bonding time together. Although Eric is great, if he sees Aj playing games he will go up and play with him. I think Aj enjoyed his vacation. He went skiing for the first time and loved, loved,loved it - did I mention he loved it?
He was less than thrilled to go back to school on Monday. he tried pulling the old, "ohhhh my stomach hurts so much!" Now I just ignore him cuz he knows he can't pull one over on me. I dropped him off to school and he had tears in his eyes. I tell ya, that kid despises school. I did feel a tiny bit sad seeing him go off to school upset. But by the time I picked him up, he was fine and we were back into "school mode" again. whew!






Liam and I spent our morning playing and reading books and of course I had my cleaning ritual that I perform everyday - you'll read more about that in a different post. While cleaning was outside shaking my rugs and discovered it was a beautiful day. So sad when 45 degrees is considered a beautiful day. Anyway, I decided to talk Liam for a walk. He has been battling a nasty cold and I figured the fresh air would do him well. We had a lovely walk. Every time we walked by a bush or a tree, Liam wanted to stop and touch it. He was doing so much exploring yesterday. We had so much fun on our walk and I cannot wait until the nicer weather comes so our walks can be a daily thing.
Today I didn't think I have any plans, however I have a Dr.s.appointment - yuck! such an inconvenience. I have been bringing Liam with me, however, today Papa Bob is going to watch him. I shouldn't be to long, Just going to check in and make sure I'm not going crazy!! I will post some great deals later so stay tuned........

Vacation Day 3




I Apologize for not actually writing anything on Day 3, but I was very busy running around doing my errands! Have I mentioned how much I hate errands for deeper reasons than I care to go into right now. Any hoo.......

Aj went skiing with is uncle Danny yesterday. He was super excited to go. he went over the weekend with his dad and now I think he has the skiing bug. He knew his uncle Danny loves to ski so he called him up very casually and hinted around to him that he would like to go skiing. Well, Uncle fell for it and they went yesterday. I was a bit nervous because you hear of all these people getting hurt in the slopes and me being the worry wart that I am, I thought I was going to get the call that my son fell or got hurt and was being wisked away in an ambulance. Well, skiing went off without a hitch. Aj came back without a scratch and a big smile on his face. He had a blast, then again he always does with his uncle. He was so excited to tell me that he rode the ski lift and went down the "big hill!" he was so proud of himself and so was I. After I fed the boys lunch it was off to run errands yuck.

Aj slept over his papas house last night - he loves sleeping over there. He puts his papa through a lot though - knee hockey, games on the x-box and watching wrestling.. Thank god for papas xoxo
