First Trip To The Zoo

So the month of April is just about 1/2 over already....can you believe it?? Why do the days and weeks go by so fast? Sometimes I want things to hurry up and get here, but then it's done and gone just as quickly as it came....is this the way life will always be from now on?? Wanting it to SLOW down?? I guess we just need to sit back and enjoy as much of it as we can!!

Talking about enjoying life, this past Sunday was BEAUTIFUL outside!! First awesome day of the year, and we took advantage and went to the zoo. We went with Matt, Chrissy, Buddy, Ella, Jim, Michelle & Donovan. While Ella slept 1/2 of the time, Savannah was wide awake and staring at her brother & cousins as the ran around to look at the animals. Connor wanted to see the turtles and Buddy liked the giraffes. It was so nice to be outside almost all weekend, but unfortunately it's back to being in the 50's, and just a little to cold to spend any significant amount of time outside. Savannah must have loved being outside as most of her life as been inside. All I know is the fresh air must have worn her out because on Sunday night she slept 7.5 hours, the longest she's ever slept!

One Last Time

So as Savannah's B-Day comes nearer and nearer, it doesn't seem like we're getting anything accomplished in the house.... ugh! I wanted to get so much more done, but I just don't think it's going to happen. We still need to paint her bookshelf & put up the shelf for her barbies. I never finished going threw all of Connor's Toys....the basement is a complete disaster.....now I'm just starting to get overwhelmed with everything and coming to the realization that we might not get everything done.....oh well I guess, it's not the end of the world........

Like I said in the last post, this weekend was beautiful. Other than going to the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday, Sunday we decided to bust out the sprinkler one last time. Connor & Scott had a lot of fun playing with the Rocket Ship sprinkler that he got for his birthday.
Then Scott decided to jump on the trampoline (which was covered in leaves) and Connor decided to play in his sandbox. By the time they were done playing they were filthy & had to spray down with the hose, BRRR.

Storms

So today has been your typical Friday, pretty boring!! We have lots going on this weekend, it'll be fun, but it'll go by fast!! 72 hours from now I will be walking into the Dr's office to have my ultrasound to find out if we're having a boy or girl!! Can't wait!!!

So yesterday afternoon/night we had some major storms in the area!! This summer has been full of crazy storms that have brought tornado's, flooding, hail, etc. Connor is suppose to have swim lessons on Thursday night's, but obviously with the tornado warnings that did not happen. The first part of the storm there wasn't any lightening or thunder, so me & Connor got to play outside, then while eating dinner I decided I didn't feel comfortable sitting right next to a bunch of windows, so I decided to eat in the middle of the living room (not on the couches, because the skylights are right above them, lol). Well there was confirmed tornado's in the area, but we didn't see any, HOWEVER we did have a TON of water! This was taken in our backyard, we had a river!!
