Wannabe Redhead

Happy Monday, all!  We had a very fun (and busy) weekend again!  On Saturday we got to go to a first birthday party for a very cute little Chandler boy.  :)
Our little wannabe redhead all set for Chandler's birthday!  (She insisted it was her's...again.)

 While Chandler threw his cake everywhere (as every first birthday kid should), Bug was in the background, freaking out over Chandler "wasting" his cake.

Chandler with his mommy and daddy.

After Chandler's birthday, we celebrated my Uncle's birthday at my parents' house.  (No pictures.  Mommy FAIL.).

Unlike everyone else in the world, we took it easy on St. Patrick's Day.  We went to mass and Bug was AWESOME.  She was semi-silent the entire mass, even though she was super tired and needed a nap.  Afterwards, we hung out at home, played games and ate lunch.  Bug even let Mommy and Daddy watch a movie that they liked! 



During all of this down time at home, Bug used the above pictured teacup and was walking around the house pretending to drink.  She couldn't see.  She hit the door.  Fell to the floor.  Bit her lip.  Blood.  It was not awesome.  At all.  After crying it out, talking her into calming down, we decided it would be a good time for a walk.  So, we packed Buggy up and headed to the trails.

 We live in an awesome community with lots of trails.  We decided to take an easy trail because we had Bug with us.

Unfortunately, she fell asleep on the 5 minute car ride.  So we transferred her to her jogging stroller and she didn't even wake up.  Amazing.  So, Mommy and Daddy had some time together on this trail.  Unfortunately, Bug missed it all.


The trail we went on is a horse trail.  Seriously.  People around here have horses and you just walk 'em through the streets.




This is on the horse trail- a back door to someone's backyard.  You'd think it was the entrance to the secret garden or something.


After the trail, we headed back to the car, when this diva finally woke up.

Now that she was re-energized, we decided to take her to the downtown area near us to run out all of her energy. :) Oh, here's a close-up of her fat lip- completely blistered.  So sad.

There's that other bruise from last week on her chin.  Uuugh!  She is so unstable.

We stopped for an apple sauce break (or two).








Crazy hair to most people.  Tame for us.





Bug found a new friend.  She followed her around for a little bit.


When this little girl left, Bug yelled out, "Oh, fren!"  So sad.  :(



Look at that tummy!  It's all that apple sauce! :P



While Mommy made a quick run into the market, this girl was taking some driving lessons from Daddy and dancing in the car.  

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

God Bless,
Kat

4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 month Cub (9, 10, 11 too)

Clearly I've missed a few monthly updates of the Cub.  I apologize.  We were busy and life has literally taken us for a whirlwind ride.  To be really honest, I lost a lot of motivation to write these past few months because I've every time I started to write, all I could think to write about was my grandpa, Papang, how much I've missed him, and the endless tears that came out when I thought of him.  Every time I reflected back on the moments with my kids and my family, I seemed to cry, thinking of how much he's missed even in the short 5 months he's been gone.  After months of tears and prayers, I feel like I'm officially starting to feel like I'm healing.  While I know I may not heal completely, I can function without tears flowing from my eyes every moment of silence. Cubby has grown quite a bit (to say the least) since my 3 month update.  Here is the gentle giant's growth in months 4, 5, 6, and 7. This weekend, Cubby turned 8...

"Thank you for being a friend..."

[And now, a short introduction with the theme song to the sitcom, The Golden Girls] "Thank you for being a friend, Traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true your a pal and a confidant. And if you through a party, Invited everyone you ever knew... You would see the biggest gift would be from me, And the card attached would say thank you for being a friend." This morning, Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux on my favorite show, The Golden Girls, passed away. If you know me, you could understand how upset I might be.  (Quote from Blanche:  " There is a fine line between having a good time and being a wanton slut. I know. My toe has been on that line." ) The Golden Girls was, is and will always be my favorite show...EVER. Within the last few years, both Estelle Getty (who played Sophia) and Bea Arthur (who played Dorothy) passed away as well and that in itself was a tragedy; for we all know what an amazing duo they made!    (Quote fro...

What if...

I was on the phone today with my brother, Kyle, and was telling him about my emotionally charged moment in a parking lot as I dropped off the hubs at work after having lunch with him.  As I drove through the aisle of the parking lot, a parked car quickly backed out of it's spot without looking.  My natural instinct, of course, was to stop, rather than move forward.  Thankfully, however, the car quickly stopped itself from hitting the front passenger side of my car, where the hubs was sitting.  I pulled into a spot to calm myself down.  My heart was racing.  Wyatt turned to me and asked, "Are you okay?"  I just could not find the words to respond.  (Strange, I know.)  I was breathing so heavily and I think he realized I was about to freak out and said, "We're fine.  She didn't hit us."  He was right.  The driver had stopped quickly enough and everyone was safe.  However, I still could not get myself to calm down.  3, 2...
