Nothing new...

So i am feeling almost back to my old self. Last wednesday I woke up feeling like my throat was on fire and by that evening I wanted to cut out my throat...(would help with the weight loss too :) ). That night Mike took me to the Dr. and the prognosis was as expected, STREP THROAT!!! Thankfully my mom came to the rescue (like always) and was willing to keep the boys on Thursday and Friday so I could rest and hopefully not get them sick. By Saturday I was feeling pretty good but still am not at %100.

The boys and I have enjoyed the beautiful weather yesterday and today and have been spending alot of time outside. So far, I am enjoying my time at home with them and haven't wanted to drop them off at the fire station yet...kidding, I wouldn't do that :) LOL!

Free at Last...

So we had another follow up appointment with the pediatrician today, and Langston is ear infection free! WOO HOO! This has to be the first time in months that he doesn't have one. I am so thankful!

Home Sweet Home!

I truly think I have never been so thankful to be home!

We definitely enjoyed our trip to Reno to see my sister, but I have never been so thankful to be on Houston soil... The flights home were turbulant (literally & figuratively). We started our day at 5:30 and touched down in Houston around 3:30. And apparently my boys think airplanes are so fun that they don't want to miss a minute of them. Keddie refused to nap eventhough he continuely told me how tired he was. Langston slept a little but not nearly enough. The ride was really bumpy at one point I actually came out of my seat, so understandably Keddie was a little freaked out.

All in all they were good travelers...but I don't think I will be flying with them again by myself anythime soon...

soooo tired...in the terminal...NOT on the plane!

Glad to be home...and will be even happier when daddy gets home from his annual week long motorcycle trip with friends, mommy needs a break.

You say Nevada...I say Nevaaaaada...

So we are really enjoying our visit to my sisters house. The weather has been ok, I must admit that my toes were not excited about going back into socks and shoes. The kids have been having so much fun playing. Mom is here too and she is going home tomorrow so the kids got to play hookie from school. We all went bowling and then had lunch at Johnny Rockets. Keddie & Langston LOVED bowling (I don't think they've ever been before). The bowling alley actually had shoes that fir Langston, he was so excited. He did pretty good, definitely didn't have the lowest score :).
Johnny Rockets was yummy too...

Only a few more days before it's back to reality...

Oh and the Nevada-Nevaaaaada thing, Scott and everyone think we say it funny... must be a TEXAS thing!

Time flies...

So since my last post a ton has happened. Most notably that I QUIT MY JOB!!!! How bizarre is that? The last time I didn't have a job I think I was 15. But it's been about a week and I am really enjoying all the extra time with my boys. This week we flew to Reno to visit my sister Anna and let me tell you that was an adventure. Both boys decided it would be a great day to not take a nap. Mama was TIRED by the time we landed. But we have been having a great time and the boys are loving being able to play with their other side of the country cousins.
