Maine

We traveled to my Moms over the past weekend. We had a great time per usual. This time though, I really really realized how much I wish I lived on a lake! It was so amazing to just sit on a tube and float on the water. It felt like there was not a worry in the world!

It was fun watching Madelyn play in the lake and the sand. She is my little dare devil. She kept walking out and out and out. She would get to the point where her mouth was not even over the water and she just wanted to keep going!

My brother and sister-in-law made a surprise visit as well. It was good to see them and I know Madelyn had fun.

I also went out in my mom's kayak with my brother. We went farther then I have ever been in one before. I loved it. I have been looking at Craigslist now lol. Too bad we could never afford one!

We also went to a concert while we were there, it was an all day country festival type thing. Blake Shelton, my favorite, was there an rocked it out! So awesome! Eric favors Brad Paisley and he was the headliner. He was good and he came super close to us and then walked through the crowd! It was pretty cool!

Well the countdown in on for when we will be in Maine again, 8 days! :)

Here are some pictures to show you how much fun we had!

Doctors

So.. I had a physical the other day. I know I have some issues, mainly with weight, it is no secret.

Well I just got a call from the nurse about my blood work. My triglycerides and cholesterol came back high.

She says the doctor said to watch my weight and carbs... why do they make it sound so easy....

Long time no talk!

Hello there!

Sorry I have been MIA for a longggggg time but things have been hectic around here. One of my bestest just started a blog and it got me thinking, I should write more on mine.

So basically, life has just been moving along. We purchased a house and moved in, in April. We love having our own space and yard. Madelyn has enjoyed it since the second she was here. The cool thing about our new town is that there are several parks. There are three really nice ones with stuff for little kids. All three have splash pads. Two have pools and there is an indoor pool as well.

The splash pad is very cool. Two of them just have one little thing at it but the big park, which is closest to our house has a HUGE splash pad. It has tons of different things for the kids to play with.

We weren't sure if Madelyn was going to like it right away since it is water being sprayed at your basically. So we brought her to it with her clothes on (we had her swimsuit in the stroller) and let her look at it. As we walked closer and closer, she started to get crazy. She was trying to rip the straps off her and get out! It was so funny. Once we got next to it, she just kept pointing. So I immediately got her into her swimsuit. We put her down and off she went! She was soo excited.

Every time since then, she just runs right in. People are always commenting to us how she just loves water. She is always so happy to be in there. Here are some pictures as evidence that our baby is definitely a water baby!
