So sad I haven't been on here to blog! The past couple of weeks have been insane, and having your kid have surgery and recover is a lot more work than just me lying around recovering lol. I have been SO beyond tired as well, but taking it one day at a time to have happy moments...so here is a mish mosh of all of the happy moments of the week, and I promise to try to be better, and more grateful, AND more awake, next week!
- Having some alone time this week meant that I could catch up on some sleep. I don't know if it is because I am really flaring badly lately, but sleep is one of my top favorite happy moments of this week! I tried not to sleep when the kids were home, but sometimes it couldn't be helped! So I am grateful for catching MANY Zs this week and hopefully will be more productive in the coming week!
- Connor and I did Taco Tuesday while David and Joel had a father/son night. It was a lot of fun with Connor and we even stopped for hot chocolates at Starbucks for dessert. I am grateful for the fun times I had with Connor this week. He recited really cute pumpkin poems, the Pledge of Allegiance, and just said some of the funniest things YET! I am lucky to get to hang around him and be his mom and listen to all of the funny things he says!
- Joel and I had several really nice walks to school this week because David was home getting ready for work so Connor snuggled and watched TV while Joel and I walked together. Sometimes Joel is the most talkative in the morning on our walks and it was nice to catch up with him, hear what some of his most recent favorite things are, what he hopes to do at school that day, and other funny things. He seemed to be feeling much better by the end of the week and I am so grateful that he is on the mend and getting stronger every day!
- This week was a weekend of birthdays! David's birthday was on Friday and my Dad's was on Saturday. After both boys got home from school on Friday, we went to our neighbor's home to play and had a great time running around for an hour. After that, our babysitter came over and David and I went out to celebrate his 33rd year. It was so nice! We went to an AMAZING sushi restaurant and had some truly gourmet food! After our bellies were full and happy, we headed to an imax 3D screening of Gravity. WOW that movie was good! It was a really nice birthday day and the boys can't wait to eat some pumpkin pie birthday pie at the end of the weekend!
- Saturday was a day for sleeping in and getting things done around the house. The boys are both getting so much better at helping us clean up and pick up toys! I am so thankful both of them are getting good at putting things away and helping out more. After our house work, we went to Connor's school Fall Fair and it was great fun! The boys had the best time petting a tiny pink pig in the petting zoo. They are currently obsessed with the show Peppa Pig and so it was such a treat to get to pet a real pig! After the fun fair, Joel had his soccer game so we rushed over to that. Joel did such a great job playing this evening. The siren went off to let us know that lightening was getting too close so the game ended early....all around happy moments at the game tonight lol.
- We came home and enjoyed a thunder and lightening show for the better part of 3 hours tonight! I was so nice to snuggle down and watch the house light up and listen to the thunder while we all huddled together. The boys were so sweet, they even went to sleep together tonight to keep each other safe. So precious!
