Random Updates

It's February now, which means Spring is just around the corner.  Thank goodness!  Although the weather here has been rather mild, health wise this winter has been awful.  It seems like we can't go more than a few days without someone coming down with something.  The past several weekends someone has been sick, and I am just praying that this weekend everyone stays healthy.

Speaking of this weekend, we have a big one planned!  I took off Friday through Tuesday, yay!  Friday all four of us are going in to see the doctor for check-ups.  Saturday night John's parents will be watching the boys while we head to Omaha to celebrate our 9th anniversary.  I am wicked excited for our weekend away!  I found an awesome dress on clearance at Penney's for our date too.  It looks great and it was 70% off, score!  Sunday afternoon we are going to a birthday party at Lost in Fun for one of our good friend's son.  I'm sure the boys are going to have a blast.  My only worry is all the germs there (to say I'm a germaphobe may be a bit of an understatement).

Our taxes have been done and our refund approved.  It should be arriving here any day now.  All I can say is thank goodness!  I am so ready for some relief of this constant stress.

The boys are talking like crazy now.  They have become little parrots and are repeating back most of what we say.  Owynn has even started talking in sentences, I can't get over it!  When did my babies get so big???  


Update:  Our weekend away was amazing and everyone stayed healthy!  Birthday party was fun, but Oliver was over tired and threw a big tantrum and we didn't end up staying long.  The boys ended up coming down with a cold later in the week, but they aren't acting like they are sick at all.  I don't know where they get all their energy.  Our refund arrived! Ahhh relief!  Life is good =)
