Soccer is Over

Soccer ended on Saturday and we were glad Ryan got sick of it but he did love the trophy he got at the end he was so excited about it, after we got home he wanted to take it to his nap with him. I set it up so he could see it but wouldn't let him have it in bed, he was okay with that. We will see if he decides to do it again next year. If nothing else we got a nice tan. Okay so he doesn't look that excited in the pic but really he was.

Olivia has finally switched to a big girl bed, about a month ago she started climbing out of her playpen and we couldn't get her to stay in bed so with this at least she can get back in herself after she stops throwing a fit. It is a good thing she is so cute!

Mother's Day

So I was thinking no presents for mother's day as Chris is gone and Ryan is only 3 a little to young to figure the whole thing out, although when I told him what day it was he got all excited and said, "Happy Mother's Day mommy" it was cute cause I didn't even have to tell him to say it. Anyways I did get surprised though Chris had Kyler put flowers and a note from him on my table while I was gone so I came home and there was a bunch of flowers it totally made my day. And then since I figured that I would have to make my own dinner I was going to make it good so I fed the kids mac and cheese and put them to bed early and then cooked myself a steak and had some leftover BLT salad (so good btw) so I had a fun easy really yummy dinner and all in all had a really good mother's day the kids even made cards for me in nursery. I am getting a sewing machine though from my anniversary/Mother's Days/birthday present since they are all with in 2 months of each other so if anyone has good advice on how to pick out a good sewing machine that would be great cause I am really excited to get one!

Back to playing a single mom

Chris is in Washington DC for a few weeks installing security systems before he starts summer school, so I get to play single mom again. I did this once before for a whole summer when I was pregnant with Olivia but wow I forgot that it is so hard. I know I don't see Chris a whole lot when he is here between work and school but there is at least some adult conversation. I am grateful though that Kyler lives downstairs it makes me feel just a little safer at night to know that all I would have to do is scream and someone besides my kids would know something is wrong. I just have to tip my hat to all of those single moms it is a big job and I at least get to talk to Chris once a day it is definitely and reminder to me that if I ever get upset with Chris life with out him is definitely worse than almost anything he could do. I also do have to do a little bragging on my man he got a 4.0 again this semester that is twice in a row he is so smart!
