* The weather is so nice and mild. We recently spent a few days working on the yard. The kids spend ever moment outside. I love having a huge back yard.
* Beckett and I have been walking outdoors every morning for our three mile walks. We are ready for our neighborhood park to finish there work on the new park their building!
* Beckett and I try to meet up with friends a couple times a week. He loves playing with friends. In fact everybody is a friend to him. I love catching up with my girlfriends. Beckett is some what old enough to handle himself at the playground with out me hovering.
* I am totally nesting. I spent several days cleaning out the kids closets and reorganizing a few areas in the house. To bad with all the sickness going around our house I've lost my motivation again..
* Our afternoons our busy, soccer practice for Alli occupys a lot of Richards time.
* Cooper and I spend a lot of time on homework and reading everyday. He is doing better education wise but he still manages to find himself in trouble at school the majority of the time.
*Cooper lost his front tooth.
*Also Cooper caught the stomach bug last week and boy was he out! It took him two days to recover. He slept a lot! Unfortunately he is still not great about making it to the bathroom with vomit, so yeah that was fun.
* I had a girls favorites night with a bunch of ladies from church. We exchanged our favorite items and ate goodies together. I am so glad to have the opportunity to get together often with friends, I enjoy time away from my home/children and to feel like myself.
* Beckett and I are slowly working on potty training. He really was not into it and would straight up cry about it. I started making him potty before bath every night and so far he will, I then started making him go in the mornings before we get dressed. I think I just need to bite the bullet and dedicate a few days of complete potty training for him to completely get it. It's just that my schedule has been so jam packed that I've put it off.
* Allison is doing wonderful. She is totally homework self sufficient and loves to read on her own. This current heel issue has got her bummed but it's a life lesson. She is doing great in school and has a ton of friends. We are gearing up for her birthday in a few weeks. She's been planning for months.
* Richard is busy! Work, school, and soccer. I am blessed that he is so hard working and dedicated to his family. He has really stepped up due to my pregnancy. I never know when to stop and he will insist I rest or take the kids with him to run errands. Or he will babysit for a girls night out. I love how he puts up with my food cravings and doesn't fuse when I send him to get Cheerios at ten at night. We went on a date night to the new Brazilian steakhouse a few weekends ago. I have never eaten so much food in my life, it was good and different experience. Then we went shopping kidless to target to get a ton of much need household items. He didn't bat an eye at me spending a couple hundred dollars on these things. Then we went to see the movie insurgent. I sure do love alone time with my love!
