April Happenings

Well, we have had fun this week. With spring break over, we had to get back into routine. Wyatt and Matt went back to school and Walker and I enjoyed more time together at home. I am loving being a stay home mom even if it's only temporary. Walker is now one month old as of yesterday. He is weighing in at 8 pounds 13 ounces and has outgrown the newborn size in clothing. He is awake more during the day which is so fun especially listening to his coos and seeing him smile! He has now made his first trip to the hair salon for mommy to get her hair cut. He slept the whole time and was admired by many. He has also ventured out to Target too. He is so easy to take out because he just falls right to sleep in the car.

Yesterday I made my first trip out by myself with both boys to take Wyatt to a birthday party for his friend Evie at Build a Bear Workshop. It took some mental preparation like figuring out who to put in and get out of the car first in a busy mall parking lot. The party was a lot longer than I thought it would be, but there were 16 kids eager to pick, stuff, scrub and dress their bears. Everyone had a blast! Wyatt did excellent waiting patiently for his turn. He picked a camo bear and chose a fishing outfit for him to wear. Walker also did great sleeping the whole time. After the party we went and ate lunch in the food court. I also needed to get the boys swim suits so I took them shopping too. Of course while shopping, Walker woke up hungry. Somehow I managed to shop, balance a bottle for Walker and keep Wyatt busy carrying his new bear. Craziness, but successful. Both boys were wiped out by the time we got home (so was I!)

Walker was out the whole time, safely tucked in the stroller away from 4 yr old hands

Yesterday afternoon Wyatt got a special package from CiCi with all kinds of figures from the How to Train Your Dragon movie. One of those treats was a volcano you put this special egg into. When you put the egg in the water it foams up making the volcano "erupt" and when it's done there are pieces to put together to make a dragon. Wyatt enjoyed this fun! Thanks CiCi!

Overall a great weekend. Don't have much planned for this coming week, just planning on enjoying whatever comes our way!
