My mother in law, Linda, saved me last weekend and gave me a three day break. Thanks, Linda!! It was wonderful!! And ever since Ethan has gotten home...it has been great!! We have had our usual meltdowns but over all....GREAT!! My girlfriend Melissa came last night to get her hair highlighted and after Ethan fell asleep on the couch and I carried him to bed, she said..."I don't know how you do it!", And I said 'What?", and she said,"All the questions that he asked!" She couldnt believe it. I said,"this is normal for us...I guess that I am used to it." But he does ask A LOT of questions, usually about nothing. And I try to make them the shortest, easiest answers possible. It seems to help!! He is just a very curious little boy and had to know exactly how and why of everything!! Can't fault him for that!!!
We had a wonderful weekend after Ethan came back. Chuck and Linda brought him back and Kristen and her kids came down as well. We went on a boat ride and beached the boat on one of the islands and let the kids swim. It was fun for the kids but as anyone knows who has ever been out on Lake Norman, the lake floor is very slimy and muddy!! YUCK!! So for us ladies we were very squemish!! ( is that how you spell it...hummm????) But all and all it was a great day!! Then on Sunday we had a family fun day a went to the mall and furniture shopping. The kids probably didn't love it as much as J and I but they survived. Ethan got to play at the mall play area....which I have avoided like the plague....but his daddy thought that it was a good idea to let him climb all over that germ infested place....but he loved it...and was Lysoled down when we got home!!
I wish had pictures from both excursions but I dont....hopefully next time I will remember!!
So I feel energized and ready for a fun week at the beach!! I will surely have pictures from that!!
