What A Week

The title says it all. It has been quite a week. We had a pretty uneventful weekend. But starting on Thursday Braylon started to not feel too well. He ended up with a cold that gave him a runny nose and a nasty cough. Plus I also think he is getting 4 new teeth. :( He hasn't ran a fever over 99 so we didn't get too worried. Then this weekend I felt the symptoms of a cold coming on, but nothing too bad, but then Sunday night I was sneezing constantly and was starting to feel horrible. I ended up staying home from work on Monday, it was a good thing because I started running a fever and felt like total crap. I haven't felt that bad in a very very long time. I managed to escape the whole flu season without anything, and then this cold knocked me on my butt. But I am finally feeling better, just a stuffy nose now. It is so nice for both of us to be feeling better. BUT...Braylon is in total Mommy mode right now. He just cries and cries when I drop him off at the babysitters (all starting last Thursday). I hate it, he has never cried when I dropped him off before. It makes it so hard to go to work when I have to leave him like that. Ahh...I hope that he outgrows this phase quickly. But don't get me wrong, I LOVE all the extra cuddle time. :)

That is about all that has been going on in our neck of the woods. We are headed for Centralia on Friday for my 10 Year Class Reunion. I can't believe it has been ten years already. I can still remember things so vividly. Anyways, it will be so nice to see everyone and get caught up on everything!

No new pictures to post. Hopefully I'll have some good ones after this weekend!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all! Especially to our mom's. You two are the greatest! Hope you both have a wonderful day.

Man, where has the time gone? It isn't even summer yet and we are already so busy. We have spent a lot of nights these past two weeks outside. We have to mow our yard at least twice a week to keep caught up on it. I have finished planting all our flowers for the spring and summer. Braylon has LOVED being outside and being mommy and daddy's big helper. Braylon loves the water, I can't wait to start taking him to the pool and letting him play in the sprinkler. He thinks it is awesome when it is raining and would play in it all day long. He is becoming such a boy. Love bugs, dirt, everything! It has been so much fun seeing how much he has changed in one year. He wasn't even walking at this time last year. It is so hard to believe he will be two in two months.

Over the past few weeks, we've had some friends over for a BBQ, went to our first Royals game of the year, went to the K-State Spring Game in Manhattan. One thing we have learned from doing all of this is we know for sure that Braylon is a sports FREAK. This kid just loves sports and the atmosphere of being in a stadium. He becomes the most well behaved little boy when we are there. He is so much fun to watch. Below are a few pictures from the above mentioned events.
