Weekend

Well thankfully Leah is much better. Still not 100% but a LOT better than last week.  Her fever broke on Friday and then that evening she started eating a little bit. That day she took a 4 hour nap and then a few hours later went to sleep for another 12 hours!  Saturday she was a lot better.  Ugh that was the worst thing ever to see my baby that sick! And to try to keep my other baby away from her to keep him healthy!! 

Snow on Friday! Crazy!

When Leah started feeling a little better I named off like every food in the kitchen to see what sounded good to her. She chose a corn dog and a pickle! Weirdo!!! :) And yes she is wearing her Santa jammies from Christmas :)
We had a low key weekend to make sure Leah took it easy. Saturday morning I dropped both kids at my mom's house while I went to get a pedicure! It was the first one I have gotten since my due date, July 31st!! It was awesome and a much needed hour away! We stayed home the rest of the day and in the evening participated in Earth Hour. It is a fun way to teach the kids about conservation of energy and the importance of being aware of how we need to take care of our planet. We played some games and had candles lit and along with turning off the lights, we shut down all of our other technology for the entire evening.  I want to try to convince Dustin to have our own Earth Hour more often, like at least once a month!!
This pic was staged but he stood there for several seconds before losing his balance! Noooo stop growing!!
Sunday we just went to breakfast and ran a few errands before coming home.  One nice thing about Leah being sick was she has been going down for naps and bedtimes so EASY!!

Today it is sunny and beautiful outside! I loaded the kids in the stroller and went on a walk to one of the playgrounds in our neighborhood. Again, Leah got so tired in just the little amount of time we were there. She asked to take a nap when we got home, poor thing. She had fun swinging for a little bit and I am sure the fresh air was good for her. 
 WHY were we the ONLY people at the park on such a nice day???


Morning nap as mommy got some exercise taking the long way home from the park

Leah and Carter are both napping right now in their beds! I love when all the stars align and they go down easily for naps at the same time!
