Spring Break 2013: Monday-Wednesday

No I am not in school.
No I do not have any children that are in school.

Yet the title is Spring Break 2013. Well Bible Study took a week off and we didn't have MOPS and everyone else was on Spring Break so we called it our Spring Break too. Granted- Justin worked all week but I had fun regardless.

My original plan was to meet my Mom in Houston on Tuesday to go to Ikea. I really want a shoe closet & to maybe find some stuff for Aschers birthday. However, Monday I woke up with the crud. Yuck! We headed to Target and got some medicine and some other stuff we needed and the rest of the day I loaded myself up with tons of meds determined to knock it out. I really wanted to go to Ikea. However, Tuesday morning I woke up feeling worse than I had on Monday. Justin thinks I took too much meds. Its possible. So Ascher and I canceled on Mom and spent the day resting and trying to get better. I didn't take any medicine and it seemed to get a little better as the day went on. When Ascher napped, I napped. When he played- I laid on the couch/floor. I'm waiting for the day when he understands when I don't feel good. Until then we improvise. It wasn't that bad. (Looking through my phone- I didn't take ONE picture all day- which never happens)

Wednesday came and I was determined to feel better and thankfully I woke up feeling much better. We packed up and drove to Houston to spend the night with my sister-in-law. She is a teacher and was on Spring Break and Ascher ADORES his cousins. When we arrived we let the kiddos eat lunch, play for a little bit and then it was nap time. However, Ascher isn't a fan of napping when he is somewhere new or there is a lot going on so he would NOT sleep. Finally I got in my car and drove around and out he went. While the babies slept, Ragan & I laid out on the drive way and caught up. I am very thankful for our relationship. Ragan is my sorority sister. Ragan is the only reason I married Justin. Ragan was my friend before I even knew Justin. Ragan introduced me to her older brother. Who knew!? I just love that our friendship truly did turn into a sisterhood. 

After the babies woke up, we went to Kohls to return some stuff for Ragan and I found Ascher his first pair of Chuck Taylors & a hooded monster towel. They look so cute! He looks like such a big boy! (both of which will be part of birthday present) After Kohls we headed home and Ragan grilled us a steak. (Brad was at band practice for church) Dinner was delicious and over all it was a wonderful day! We showered, and headed to bed before too late. However, I drank a coke and was up until well after midnight. Coke really affects me lately. I made a collage of our day.
