Home from the hospital

I am home from the hospital and doing great. My surgery was on Wed afternoon and they sent me home today. The pain is very minimal and I had been up and walking. It is so nice to be home and shower and sleep in your own home. Sorry no pictures with this post....which I know is unusual for me....but i did just have surgery :) Actually I had Laura take a picture to add...can't blog without a picture!

Home from the weding

I am home from the wedding. I had a great time and I was so glad to see my friend Jan and the girls Jamie and Megan and Tara. I am glad I went early to spend time with them before the big day. Jamie and Mark looked so happy in love....it was a great wedding and reception. It was so beautiful. I was so happy to be a part of it. I met lots of people that were so sweet to me and made some new friends that I will keep in touch with. A good time was had by all. I am glad to be home though.....

I am off to a wedding.....

Well, my faithful readers...I am off to Omaha to attend a wedding of a dear friend. I am really good friends with her mom and am going early to spend some time with her before the big day. I haven't seen them since Jordan was small, but they are the kind of people who you can go years without seeing them and when you do see them we just pick up like no time has gone by. They are the coolest chicks! I am so excited to see them and can't believe Jaime is getting married....Don't worry I will post pictures when Ireturn. I am sure I will take just a few...:) These pictures are from Jaime and Jan drove up from California to meet Jordan, Cory and see me. Of course we had a major snow storm, but they were unaware that it was bad and just drove here with out a care in the world. Not bad considering they are 2 girls from Florida!! I can't wait to see them...

train park pictures

the first picture is not at the train park, but he looked so cute I had to post it!

The Train Park

Our town has a little train park that is open every 2nd and 4th sunday of the month. It is free to ride the trains. So went early and rode the train and then waled around. The had some small trains that rand around this large track. Carson loved that part because they had Thomas the train. And he is Caron's favorite thing in the entire would...so he loved that part. I was unable to uplaod the photos, so I will try again later.

OUR FUN PLAY DATE!!

We met some friends at the park today. We had a great time. It was the same water park that we had gone to before, except today they had a jumpy house thing (which Carson had a time leaving and Jordan loved it!) and they had a couple of tables set up to do some crafts (Jordan did it while Carson laid on the ground and cried because it wasn't his turn to go in the bouncy house. We ate a little snack and played for a while. I am not sure who was more tired me or the kids. We came home and took a nap (mommy too!) It was a very fun day.

Catching up!

Well, the kids started at a new care on Thursday. Jordan LOVED it...I think Carson did too. Jordan didn't take a nap (too many other kids to play with) so when she got home she crashed. I, being the good mother that I am took a picture of her. She was OUT! I am glad they liked it. Carson is taking some interest in the potty, so I am running with it. I bought him some pull ups and some big boy undies. So cute. I love they way they make him look so grown up. I feel like I have spent the entire weekend saying "do you have to go pee pee?" He is a least understanding what to do and actually lifts up both seats and stands beside the potty. He is so cute. Love that boy. He is really starting to say more words. I am not sure if it is because he is working with the specialist ladies or if he is just ready, or if we are now knowing how to communicate with him. But whatever it is he is doing so good. He is trying hard to say things. He repeats stuff too, which is good.

Jordan starts school this year, so of course she needed her doctor visit (SHOTS!) so I picked her up early from daycare and we went and ate lunch (left Carson at daycare) and then went to the doctor. She weighed 51.6 pounds and was 45 inches tall. The doctor said she was perfect...Then it was time for the shots, she tried to be brave, but it took 3 of use to hold her down. She had to get 4 of the...she was really proud of those band aids and still wanted t go to swim class to show them off. So now she can go to school. We just bought her a princess backpack today. She is sooooo excited to go to school. She always tells me that when she wants to talk she will raise her hand and ask the teacher a question. I have no ideal where she learned that from, but she is ready. I am not sure if I am ready, but I guess I really have no choice. Well, that sums up what we have been up too. Sorry that it has been awhile, but I will try to be better...
