The Last Few Weeks

We had an enjoyable Easter with our families. Isabelle had fun decorating the eggs with her cousin. And we made the mistake of telling her at the beginning of April that the Easter Bunny was coming soon. So for 4 weeks we had to listen to her daily asking where the Bunny was, who he is, where he comes from and if he's going to make it to our house safely.

The week before Easter we had to take Mason to the doctor, his temperature was 103.5! They put him through the ringer doing a bunch of tests to make sure it was nothing serious. In a mere 3 hours he faced: a catheter, chest x-ray, being pricked by needles numerous times to find a good vein for some blood work, an antibiotic shot, and a machine that sucks mucus out of your nose. We got to the hospital around 8:30 and by midnight we were sent home with Tylenol. Turns out he had Adenoviris. Luckily he was a real trooper and battled through it all like a real champ!

My cousin Marissa got married last weekend. She was such a gorgeous bride and looked so amazing in her dress that I got a bit teary-eyed when I first saw her. I can't believe she's old enough to be married! I'm so happy for her. Isabelle was ecstatic to see someone in a wedding dress as this is her most recent obsession. She tells me her prince charmings are: Mason, Daddy and Ki.

Speaking of marriage, our 8th anniversary was on April 29th, the same day as the "Royal Wedding." The funny thing is Prince William also shares Brady's birthday. Anyway, 8 glorious years with the love of my life, my best friend - life couldn't be any sweeter. We have an amazing relationship and an incredible little family that I wouldn't trade for the world.

Bring on the warm weather please Mother Earth!
