I haven't updated our blog in forever! I am not really sure where the time went. January and the beginning of February I was extremely busy at work and was working from home a lot in the evenings. Then, the end of February, I went to Boston for work and then I got strep and Easton got a sinus infection. There is no way I can remember everything from the past month and a half, so I will just try and recap the highlights!
In January, old friends of mine came into town from across the country! It was so wonderful to spend time with old friends and was really good for the soul. Part of that weekend was going to an indoor soccer game! The kids had a great time and it was a lot of fun! Thanks Carrie and Robbie inviting us!
Then, the beginning of Feb, we had a huge snow storm! It was a record breaker for Kansas City! Basically everything shut down and I worked from home for a few days. School and daycare was closed so we were pretty much stuck in our house for a while. With that snow fall brought the boys first real sledding experience! Easton was not so thrilled!
Also, in February, Payton had his last basketball game. He improved greatly over the course of the season, but it really wasn't his thing. He is just not that into sports very much. He wanted to play soccer again, so we did sign him up for that again.
We have been sick of being cooped up in the house so my mom and I took the boys one weekend to a day of fun. We went to Little Monkey Bizness where the boys could run and play. Easton was so excited! Then we went to a little museum that had a kids area and then we went to eat at Fritzs. Foods not great, but the boys love the trains!! I also spent that weekend packing away some of Eastons baby stuff he has outgrown. With this I needed to reorganize our storage area, and I did some purging! We do not have enough space in this house to keep anything that we don't need! It feels good to purge!
The past month or so Payton has lost his two front teeth! The last one was dangling for a while so the poor guy couldn't eat! Finally it fell out so he can eat some what normal again! This one bled a bit more then others. Payton hates the sight of blood. Luckily he has rarely gotten hurt or bled at all. Later that day, he said, I'm not a big fan of blood! He looks so cute with his teeth missing.
Last week i went to Boston for work. It was supposed to be a quick one night thing. The trip itself was great, but getting home was a disaster! We got a snow storm in KC, so our flight back was delayed two hours! Then, when we got to KC, a lot of the interstates were closed, and the one that wasn't was very slick. So, I had to spend the night in a hotel at the airport! Justin had to go in and work that night, so thank goodness for my mom! She came over and stayed the night. The day before I went to Boston I found out I had strep throat! It was kind of a crazy week! This past week, Easton was sick and it turned into a sinus infection.
Overall the boys have been doing good. It has started to warm up a little bit and we have been able to play outside a few times. Payton is doing great at school and Easton is continuing to try and communicate more each day. He likes to pretend he is going somewhere and will put something over his arm like a bag or something and walk around and say, Bye, Bye. It is pretty cute!
As long as the weather cooperates, we are hoping to have a fun little getaway this weekend as Payton is on Spring Break, so hopefully I won't take 2 months to post again!
