I got behind in posting so I figured it would be easiest to clump the last two weeks together to get caught up. Nana and Grampy came to visit again. They had to help Uncle Paul move out of the dorms and we were happy for more time with them. We had a fantastic meal at Granite City and lots of fun just being together.
Mercedes sleep has progressively gotten worse over the last few weeks. She is now sleeping how I remember the boys sleeping – up two to three times a night. Thankfully Micah is amazing and will get up with the boys to let me catch a little bit more sleep in the morning. I’m guessing that once we move her to her crib in a few weeks she will get back to sleeping better. Right now she is wiggling around so much that she ends up hitting her head on the sides of the cradle and wakes herself up. We could move her now but we are going on vacation soon and dont want her to get used to the larger space then be stuck in a pack ‘n’ play and get grumpy all over again.
I had a fantastic Mother’s Day with the family. The boys brought me breakfast in bed consisting of baked French toast with cinnamon struesel topping, fresh strawberries, milk, and fresh picked tulips from the yard. They both made me pictures as well. Micah did all the dishes which is always one of the best presents ever and the boys got me a set of biscuit cutters. I used them that night for dinner and they are so much better than using a cup!
We had gone out to dinner (yay Red Lobster!) for dinner on Saturday night to avoid the Mother’s day crowds so we had BBQ pulled pork sandwiches for lunch after church and sausage gravy with biscuits for dinner. We also went to Tutti Frutti for after nap snack because moms got 12oz free! What a treat
After that we hit up Lowes and bought two raspberry bushes and two blueberry bushes followed by a quick trip to the park.
Now we are counting down the days to vacation!
