it has been busy!

Last week was supposed to be my easy week. Nothing really on the calendar. That quickly changed. I ended up with a doctor's visit that in turn is leading to an ultrasound of my legs and blood work. Nothing to be worried about, more of let's just make sure that there isn't anything that is going to be wrong. If you really want to know, I'll tell you later.

Monday was a clean the house and grocery shopping day. Tuesday was spent with an afternoon of having a friend's little boy over so they could move. Wednesday we went to the park with friends and then to the mall for a while. Thursday I had my doc appointment and Kathryn got to go play at a different friend's house for a couple of hours. Friday was the zoo. Saturday Eric went to Raleigh to help teenagers fight robots and the kids & I went shopping and colored all afternoon. Sunday was Easter. Monday was our 7th Anniversary and fish shopping (see the previous post... or the next one down). Whew!

Here are a few pictures from the past week or so...

From March

Kathryn loves these shoes! I got them for like $3 at Toys-r-us a while back. Most of the time they are on the wrong feet. She will even take off her regular shoes & socks so she can walk around in her heels. So not my daughter! And of course, we have to have our "princess hat".

From March

Kathryn loves to be on the play mat with Andrew. I can't get him on it without her there also. Actually, this morning she was playing on it without him. She loves to be close to him and make sure that he is okay.

From April

The first of many artistry from Kathryn I'm guessing. I wasn't paying attention to her and heard "Mommy! That's a C!". Only to find a red "C" on the wall. She was just too cute about it to get really mad.

Our happy little boy was all excited last night. It was about 10 PM, but he was being so cute. I have a video, but I am having problems getting it to upload. Hopefully I'll get it up here soon.

It was a nice morning today so I took Kathryn outside. She loves to be outside. I daily get "Kathryn need the key" the key is to the back door. But this morning we went out front to play. I got Kathryn sidewalk chalk after the afternoon she spent at a friend's. She looked like she was having so much fun with it then and she loves to color that I thought it would be a good investment for us to play with outside. She even tried to color the grass pink this morning.

From April

This is our porch this morning. No, that's not chalk, it is pollen. Can you see why we don't go out much? Kathryn has allergies as it is. I did make sure she had her Zyrtec before we headed out. She seemed to be okay but being outside gave me such a headache. I'm guessing it was being outside. If it was, I think it was more of the sunshine with no sunglasses than it was the pollen.

I'll try to get some videos up soon. Not sure if the problem is with blogspot or if it doesn't like mp4 movies. Maybe I'll get Eric to try.
