Busy Bee

So sorry for the lack of blog entries recently. We have been all over the place these last two weeks and updating the blog has taken a backseat... Last weekend, we went to a local train show where Christopher saw all kinds of cool model train set-ups. There was also a rep there from www.trainparty.com who has now supplied us with everything we need for a certain "about to be 2 year-old's" birthday party. (Shhh, don't tell CJ about all the Thomas supplies that are in the box on the counter!). Chris also has a new babysitter on the weekends named Ms. Amanda so they hung out while Mommy and Daddy went out to dinner and a movie, yay! She will also be here again tomorrow so we can go out twice in one week! This week, we met friends at Deanna Rose on two occasions, hung out with Liam on Tuesday and went to a different Kindermusik class Wednesday because we missed our Tuesday class. We also had the Johnson County Mothers and More family picnic Tuesday night, which was fun for all of us. CJ got to swing, play in the sand, eat a blue cupcake, and climb with the big boys while we looked on. If we have nothing planned in the afternoons, Chris and I will mosey on over to the neighborhood pool which has been pretty busy of late. We usually end up seeing someone we know and I get much needed advice about what to do with a toddler swimmer who wants to do everything by himself. (And today at breakfast he said, "Self please" when I tried to feed him his yogurt). The highlight of our days, recently, has been running around the house with Chris and Kasey. Last night, we were all in stitches as Chris would run, I would hide and then he would try to find me. Here is his reaction when he found me hiding behind the bed.
