I have skipped a few days since I have been busy enjoying my long weekend! I had off Thursday for the federal holiday and yesterday was my normally scheduled day off. Yesterday was a particularly awesome day, most of which was spent here at home. We got up as family and spent the morning playing an watching TV(The parents not E) while the wood stove was burning. Ahhh...E took a really long nap and then we ran a few short errands before coming back home to enjoy Pizza night. E is such a cutie pie, I spent part of the evening with him chasing me around the house! I would tell him "bye" and then run away and he haul right after me. It was adorable !! While sometimes I miss those newborn days, I am really enjoying this stage! Of course he much more opinionated but he is so much fun!
Today is going to be a great day as well! As soon as E gets up (Don't be jealous, he was up at 3 and 6:50am already) we are going to head over to Kohls since they are about the only place open early and I am sure they are having "the biggest sale of the year." LOL! This afternoon E and Daddy are spending together while I head to a bridal shower for my SIL. The shower is about 1.5 away so I will get some nice alone time with just me and my music. My SIL is getting married to her soul mate on New Year's day. I could go on and on about these two and how special they are to me. I have known my SIL since she was a pre-teen and we have a very special relationship. We have been through a lot together and I can honestly say I think of her as just another one of my sisters. Ever since I did her hair for homecoming all those years ago, I have dreamed about her wedding day. When Nick told me she and MF were getting engaged, I was overwhelmed with images of her in wedding gown and thinking of what a beautiful bride she would be. Luckily for me, I get a front row seat at the event since I am the matron of honor. I know this is stretching a bit but I am also looking forward to the day when she calls to tell me she is pregnant with her first child. She was here for later part of my pregnancy and even attended my last doctor's apt where she was able to hear the heartbeat. Sharing life together has been and will continue to be amazing. How lucky for us both that God not only gave me NK but also my sweet sister, JRH.
