Milan drag way

Case in point....these pics were taken on kris' phone which is newer than mine.

Kris took the boys to the Milan dragway today. He had to do some recruiting for the college and I'm working this weekend so we figured the boys would have more fun with him.

This green car is one of kris' friends race car.



















Kris took them to mcdonalds after. He said they were very good and that they had fun. I've been alone with my boys all week so I'm glad they could finally hang out with daddy for a day. I'm hoping Wyatt's face is just wind burned and not the scarlet fever rash.....I guess time will tell.

Oh my Wyatt

Let me start this by admitting that these pictures are borderline horrible. I've been taking all of my pictures on my old iPhone and obviously I need to upgrade my phone or just start using a different camera, it is just so easy and convenient to take all of the pictures with my phone.

Yesterday we dropped off one of Owen's friends off at her house after school. Wy is the same age as Owen's friends little sister so the kids were playing and I was talking with my friend for a bit. On the way out Wyatt tripped on the walkway and skinned up his knee. He screamed and cried the whole way home. I created a little make shift doctor station and cleaned it all up for him.

Temporary car fix

Remember a few weeks ago when I posted this? My first car accident ever?


Well Wyatt and kris tried to fix up my car and make it all better.





They did a pretty good job! Too bad it can't be permanently fixed like this. It is sooo much better though until we save the money to fix it the right way :)

Owen's three little pigs play


Owen had his chapel presentation this week. They prepared a three little pigs skit that was based on biblical principles. He did great!!





Grammy came to support him. He was so happy to see her.


Nana came too and he was in such a good mood!


Me and my boy! Love!


And me and the little stink!

Owen has strep too!

Last night I decided to take Owen in to be checked for strep. He had no fever and was acting fine but every so often would complain of a sore throat. It was hard to tell if he was playing me or if he legitimately didn't feel well. I chose the first option yesterday morning and decided to take him into school late (because he was running around like a lunatic all morning) but then decided last night I better be safe than sorry and take him in. Sure enough his rapid strep was positive instantly. Bad mom of the year right here!!



So we started antibiotics for him around 9 pm last night.


Today he was running around like crazy so I forced him to nap with me. Literally he slept on me like this for an hour and a half. I was hoping for a nap too since my sister took Wyatt to his gymnastics class, but there was no way of getting comfortable enough for some shut eye. But I soaked it all in and wouldn't have traded this hour and a half for anything!


And later today my parents came over for a bit. My mom took me to target for a sanity break and my dad stayed with the boys. When I got home the boys were like this outside. I'm sure glad they are feeling better!!

Easter weekend

Our Easter weekend started off pretty good. We headed to an Easter egg hunt in our new neighborhood on Saturday afternoon. The boys were thrilled!



It was a tad chilly but overall a very comfortable day. And warm enough to ride bikes which was a huge plus.


Later in the day we had my family over to celebrate Easter. At one point during the evening the boys came up dressed like this. It was quite a spectacle.


And then we watched the boys play knack for a while.



On Easter morning we headed to church early because kris and I offered to help in the kitchen to prepare a nice Easter breakfast for the congregation and visitors. We set up Owen and Wyatt at a table and let them be for about an hour and a half until we were done.




After church we headed to see great grandma jane. It was a short but nice visit. Wyatt was just pretty quiet and grumpy the whole morning but I chalked it up to him just being tired. However when my mom saw him at church she said he had measles. I just laughed at how insane her comment sounded and went about our day as nothing was wrong.



When we got home Wyatt was not doing much of anything. Kris and I both agreed that he felt warm and his face was broken out as well as his back and other areas of his body.


So we decided to take him in to after hours on Easter Sunday. Not what we had in mind at all. Especially since that meant we wouldn't all be able to celebrate Easter together as a family. He slept the whole way. The first after hours clinic I went to decided to close early without any notification so we had to trek down to Ann Arbor. Thankfully it was not busy at all and we received excellent service and care. Wyatt had strep and scarlet fever thus the rash.



He said he felt like chicken mcnuggets and a milkshake from mcdonalds. He did not eat or drink much but ate enough to know he was feeling better. My mom made me an egg salad sandwich which was good, but was nothing compared to the ham loaf that my mother in law makes!



Thankfully Owen was still able to head to Grammy and Grampys with daddy.


It was a truly beautiful day for an Easter egg hunt.



He was so happy with all of his new gifts.



And here is a picture of Wyatt this morning. Still not 100%. I'm hoping these antibiotics kick in soon and give my sweet boy some needed relief.

I hope you and your family had a nice Easter as well. He is Risen, He is risen indeed!
