Believe it or not, every day I think about blogging the happenings of that particular day. As you can tell, I don't follow through with my thought. Then when I don't post for several days (or weeks!), I get overwhelmed with what to blog about. So, here is a bunch of random things that have gone on with us in the past few weeks!
-Dustin and I went to the funeral home to pay our respects to the family of our pediatrician that passed away. I am still shocked by this and don't know if I will ever be the same. I am confident in saying that I don't think I will ever find another pediatrician who cares about my boys the way that our pediatrician did. As Dustin and I were getting ready to leave, we stopped and talked to the nurse and she asked me how I was doing, and honestly, I was so overcome with emotion that I couldn't even speak, so we just hugged! Dustin and I said that we didn't expect that we would be this emotional about him passing and the nurse told us that she had had grown men come to her just sobbing over him. One special thing that made me emotional but also brought a smile to my face was that the family had his "doctor's coat" that he wore displayed. They had make up a shirt and tie and the coat was filled with all of his normal stuff he used! How sweet is that!
-Both Logan and Luke took turns being sick! I am praying that this is it for the winter and that we will have a happy, healthy Spring and Summer!!
-The boys, my Dad and I all went to the Henry Ford Museum and had a great time! My Dad said he hasn't been there in 40 years and it was such a joy to watch him look at everything. He would explain different things to the boys and I. The boys enjoyed going with their Papa! It was a nice afternoon for us all!
-The boys and I spent the afternoon last Friday with my parents! We shopped, had lunch and hung out at their house for a bit! I just want to say that I love the store "Children's Place." I love their "3 tee shirts for $18!" I was able to get a jump start on the boys Spring/Summer wardrobe! Mommy also bought some new
Clinique make up -- love it!!
-After spending the afternoon with my parents, Dustin's whole family came over that night and I cooked! Yes, you did read that correctly...I cooked! We celebrated (a little late) the February birthdays --- Happy Belated Birthday to Aunt Heather, Uncle Ryan and Lyndsey!! Speaking of February Birthdays, I must also wish my nephew Zachery a Happy Belated 7
th Birthday too!
-We topped off our busy weekend last Saturday with a trip to
IKEA! I LOVE
IKEA!! Let me say that again...I LOVE
IKEA!! We were able to get a few things and have already planned another trip back in a few weeks! One quick story about our
IKEA adventure! I was purchasing a quilt. I had seen the quilt on the upper level on a bed that was all decked out. There was a bin of the quilts by the bed, but we hadn't decided if we were going to get it at that point so I didn't pick it up. I did however look at the price. When we got downstairs where all of the "textiles" were, we picked up the quilt. I noticed that the quilt was more expensive. Then while in line, I realized that I must have picked up the "king size" instead of the "full/queen size." So, I told Dustin to go ahead and pay and just wait with the boys and I would quickly run back upstairs and switch! Let me just say that "quick run" back upstairs took about 20 - 30 minutes. There is no such thing as a "quick run" back upstairs. I never stopped moving and I swear it took me at least 20 minutes. However, that "quick run" saved me $30!!! Again, I LOVE
IKEA, just in case you didn't catch that earlier!!
-Lastly, and certainly least..."The Bachelor." This is what I have to say, "are you kidding me?!" Melissa was my favorite from the beginning. I was all excited and then the Friday before the finale I read some spoilers that told what was going to happen and it did! I lost a lot of respect for that guy! I do realize that I am talking about the reality
TV show "The Bachelor" but still! In saying that, I am
soooo excited that Melissa is on "Dancing With the Stars!" She did really good last night and I hope she sticks around! GO MELISSA!!!
That about sums it up! Thank you for reading my rambling! Hope you all have a good week!
