Cuddle Time.

So today Decovin got up a smidge earlier than normal and I had to get up with him b/c Bob had to leave early today to head to Wichita. As the morning progressed Decovin had made me a nice present in his diaper, per usual, and so I decided that it was time for a bath...random as we usually do them at night but he was dirty from the day before and we just were lazy and didn't give him a bath last night...so I stuck in the tub and he played and when I asked him to grab the ___insert bath toy here_____i.e. duck, turtle, frog, etc he grabbed the right one everytime. It was so cute.

Got him out and lathered him up with the smelly stuff and we headed into the living room for some unusual cuddle time. Most of you know that Decovin doesn't cuddle much, he is ON THE GO all the time and so when you get a cuddle in, you cherish it! So today he was zonked and I noticed that while we were watching TLC that he started to nod off IN MY ARMS!!! He hasn't done this since he was an infant! I didn't want to put him down it was so precious! But alas, all things come to an end....at least I can document it! :-)

Sick Sucks!

So this past week Decovin and I both have been ill. Symptoms include: Itchy watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, sore throat, and overall acheyness.

Decovin hasn't been sleeping well due to the cold and has gotten me up SEVERAL times in the night these past few days. So I haven't gotten much sleep and I can't really take anything to relieve my symptoms and so that makes me a bear. Lovely.

I've been at mom & dad's this week b/c I had bunco and b/c Bob was working alot, so it was nice to have help with D during the day. I was supposed to go to a petting zoo with my friend, Abby and her kids but since I feel like poo we cancelled...I didn't want to expose her kids to us either...so another time I suppose.

Anyway...that's all I have to say this week. :-)

News.

Ok, sorry it has been FOREVER since I posted last, but this will be a fun filled blog...I promise.

So since I last blogged, Bob, Decovin & I went down to Arkansas to visit my Aunt Mendy and Uncle Jim for a quick get-away vacation of sorts. It was about a 5 1/2 hour trip and Decovin did swimmingly! He slept then he would jabber and play with his toys and then we would stop at a gas station and find a grassy area for him to run around it for 10 minutes then back in the car and he was such a good boy. We actually didn't even have to turn on the DVD player until 45 minutes outside of Ft. Smith and we only did this b/c we were so close that we didn't want to stop! :-) He was super duper!

We swam, ate, vegged, saw the Fort, swam some more, ate some more and vegged some more.
They had toys for Decovin to play with, including a ball pit and golf clubs that he seemed to really enjoy! It was a very relaxing vacation! (Thanks Mendy & Jim!)

Christy has been spending the week with us, she drove Decovin and I home on Sunday as I was not feeling well that day and she will take us all back to LaCygne Friday as I have my 10 year high school reunion on Saturday. Should be fun.

Today I had a lady from the Parents As Teachers program come to the house to evaluate Decovin. She said he was on target and gave me some good pointers for the "no-no" stage of his current little life. *wink* She also said that they offer play dates once a week starting in the fall and they also throw a few big shin-digs during the year for everyone that is involved in the program. Sounds like fun! She was SUPER nice and Decovin loved her toys she brought...of course!

Oh and did I mention that I wasn't feeling well b/c I am pregnant again?! :-)
