Today

So today it's 71 and we are enjoying it soooo much. Connor, Eli and myself are going to walk down to the park and play for awhile. Connor is loving playing outside, and it looks like we left Michigan just in time. I'm so not missing the snowy weather. We are planning on going to Dallas this weekend for Connor's B-day. We are going to the aquarium which Connor will love. I can't wait. He has been having a lot of fun playing with his cousins. Kaylee is just a year older than Con so they have gotten along really well. Baby Eli has been an absolute joy to watch. He is the sweetest babies, and he seems to always be content. It has been a wonderful vacation so far, and I'm looking forward to spending the next 4 1/2 weeks here in sunny Texas.

We Made IT...

After being worried for about 2 months, we finally have arrived in Texas. Connor did so good on the plane. He got a little certificate to show his first plane ride which was super nice. He didn't complain not one time. I had a couple next to me and in front of me amazed that this was his first plane ride because he did so good. He didn't have a problem with the pressure on his ears. I was really worried about that because he just got over an ear infection. He just relaxed and watched his movies. We arrived in 71 degree weather which is a nice change. I definitely welcomed the sunshine. David took the kids to the park to which Connor replied "The parks closed" I kept on telling him at home it was because of all the snow. He got there and was in shock that it was open. Too funny. He has loved being outside without being bundled up, and I have to say I rather enjoy it too. I know we are missing out on a lot of cold weather...Bummer...:-) j/k I love that we are missing it WooHoo... Well I will keep everyone posted, and hopefully I will be able to get some pics posted soon

Stressed!!!!!!!!!

I'm super nervous about this weekend. I can't believe I'm leaving for Texas for five weeks. Not really sure how well Con is going to do on the flight there, so I'm freaking out about that. I have two bags packed already. Yes I know I'm crazy I just like to be prepared. I am looking forward to the nice weather, and we will be able to go outside without being bundled up. That will be a very nice change, but poor Ry will be at home by himself. I am really stressed about leaving him for five weeks...WHAT WAS I THINKING..!!!!!! Well please pray for us because I'm close to having a mental breakdown.

Silly Moments

This is what happens when you let a grown man play with Play-Doh...

Christmas

I forgot to put Christmas pics up, so here is Con at Christmas with his favorite toy...( thanks g-ma and g-pa)



Before we were ill, we did have some fun in the snow. We had to be a little different with our snowman. He is a UNION snowman with all his safety gear on.

Connor making his first snow angle on the year.

Today...:-)

So, the sickness is almost over. After weeks of feeling nauseous, Connor and I had to go to the doctors because we had a sinus infection and ear infection. So needless to say it's been a while since we have felt good. The antibiotics are helping soooo much I am starting to feel like a normal person. Connor unfortunately had a bug that is going around, and ended up getting sick to his tummy and puking. He is feeling better today which is a blessing. We leave for Texas next month, and I'm starting to freak out that we are not going to feel 100%. Lord willing we will be up and running come Saturday morning. So send a little prayer our way that we are feeling better come next weekend, and hopefully we don't leave giving Ryan our sickness..:-)
