March...been there, hope to do that!















Busy, Busy, Busy...that is all I have to say. Between my work, Jeremy's work, Addison...family, friends blah blah blah...we are Busy! This week especially.
On Wednesday March 18th we went to the children's museum for a playdate with Benjamin and Addison had a blast!!!! She was so sleepy when we left the house at 12 and she napped the entire way in the car. When we got there and mommy had to drag her outta the car and her sleep, she was NOT a happy camper. So she cried and fussed from the timeframe of getting her out of the car to the point when we walked into the museum...she saw kids....and that is all that she needed to "hush up". She realized we were in a "kids place" and she was suddenly the happiest baby ever. When we got up to the toddler room and she was "released" from lock down in her stroller she was on the go from that moment on. She played a solid, hard 45 minutes in the sand, to the giant lite brite, to the see saw, to the blocks, to the birdseed, to the "see through" floor and back and forth again and again. She even managed to get in trouble, when she attempt to pick up an unsupervised infant that apparently looked like a doll to her. (Keep in mind this woman left her 4-5 month old child unattended in the plush infant area, but who am I to judge...but I did. Who does that???? In a public place????) Addison had a blast in the toddler room and when I placed her into the stroller to go up stairs to the "water" room...she threw a fit and was NOT ready to be done playing. But once released in the water room I tried to fit her with a raincoat...but they were all huge and too large for Addison or Benjamin. Thank goodness it was 77 degrees that day because Little Miss went home in soaked clothing. She had a blast and was again alllllll over the place. Poor Benjamin was tired and off schedule so Addison ran in circles over and over and Benjamin was completely content with a couple fountains and the edge of the pool. Not Addison!
We also went to the Park on Saturday, which was a great outing for the family. Addison was not big enough or interested in climbing and crawling all over the playset but was stoked about playing the sand and riding the slide and swings. Mommy and Daddy even joined in the fun on the swings. Boy I miss those days, where all I had to worry about was getting on my bike and riding all day, heading to the park and swinging on the swings and playing outside. Saturday and Wednesday were a dream for us! The weather replenished my soul, I know that sounds cheesy but seriously. I cannot wait for summer and I ready....full steam ahead on this first day of spring.
This weekend wont be any fun for any of us but I am vowing to get a walk in with Addison. I **had** a decent weekend planned but that fell through when Jeremy was told that he unexpectedly had to go out of town. Which actually I am not to keen on or happy about. I have had Bridal Fair booked and planned for 6 months or more, so we had to scramble on Wednesday to find a sitter while Jeremy and I are gone. Jeremy will be flying out to Kansas City on Saturday morning and driving back (he says through the night, gosh I hope not! I have seen him drive at 8PM & look tired) but his driving will be mostly Sunday. I had a well deserved and most of all very needed massage planned for Saturday...but had to cancel...soooo hopefully we can reschedule for Wednesday or Saturday next week. I am starting to look and feel like my days, weeks, months and years revolve around those two days.

Well I will stop rambling for now...here are some pics of our adventures this week.
