On top of all the house stuff, I was finishing up my last two weeks of fieldwork. This past Friday was my last day there.....it was bittersweet. It feels great to be done and I got a great review, which is always good, but I will miss the kids and people that work there. It really was a great place. I am hoping to volunteer there some in the future if my schedule allows for that.
So that stuff is all pretty boring....on to the fun stuff! On Friday, our families came down to stay for the weekend for Will's 2nd birthday party and Easter. Friday we did some shopping and then grilled for supper. On Saturday, we headed to Antioch Park for Will's party. We had pizza, cupcakes and ice cream, a pinata and lots of fun! The pinata was a little bit of a dud....guess not all kids are as tall as my gaint but I think all in all it was a lot of fun for the kids. After the party we headed up to the park and played some. Then back home for more playing in the backyard. Thankfully, the weather held out and it was nice and sunny. Saturday night Will spent the night with Papa and Grandma at the hotel, while Brian, Jen (Brian's sister) and I went out for a few drinks with friends, which was a great time! Sunday we went to church and then came home for an Easter egg hunt. Will had so much fun finding all the eggs and yelling out the colors! Then the saddest part of the whole weekend...we had to say good bye to our families. Everyone headed home and we headed to bed for a nap!! It was a fun but busy, busy weekend. We miss everyone so much and hope that they can come back to visit soon.
Monday and Tuesday this week, Will and I hung out since I didn't have class and no job yet! Then poor Will got sick on Tuesday night. He had a temp all day yesterday and a low grade one today and let me tell you...he is a crabby boy! Thankfully he is taking a super long nap today (going on over 3 hours now) so hopefully he will wake up happy and full of energy so we can get out of the house for a bit.
So that was a quick recap of the last couple of weeks and days. I am hoping to get back into the habit of posting on here and especially add more pictures!
Here are a few pictures that I have of the past weekend:
Will got a big boy bed and bedding from my parents. My dad built the headboard and it turned out great! Will loves sleeping in his bed and is doing pretty well in it. He hasn't gotten out during the early morning hours so that is a bonus!
Will's friend Maci gave him a gardening kit and Will and I planted tomatoes the other night. We will have to see if they actually grow!!
He also got a helmet and new bike, which he loves! He often wears the helmet and pads around the house...too cute!
