Vacation Is Coming!

On Monday our family leaves for vacation in Arkansas!  We are excited to see Chris’ family again and also get a little rest.  I’m not so excited about the fact that it’s in the 90’s in Arkansas right now.  I’m spoiled by my year round median temperature of 68 degrees here.  In fact, if you go 30 minutes north or south of where we live, it gets 10 to 20 degrees hotter and I start to melt!  So I don’t know what I’m going to do with temperatures in the 90’s.  Stay near the air conditioner, I guess!

I’ve been madly cleaning and doing laundry in preparation for our trip.  You know you don’t clean enough, when your dog follows you around while you dust, looking at you like you’ve lost your mind.  It’s very eye-opening, when you see yourself through the eyes of your children and pets.

I went to the doctor today and everything looks good.  No exciting news, but my next appointment isn’t until the end of June and that’s the one where we’ll schedule my ultrasound.  Chris is already busting at the seams to find out what the baby is, so I’m not sure he can wait that long.

Isaiah and Chester have been playing outside almost nonstop these past couple weeks.  Isaiah will say to Chester, “Com’on.  Lets g’ outside!”  Sometimes Isaiah isn’t a good influence on Chester.  I’ve caught him helping Chester dig holes in the backyard.

One day Isaiah found a loose board in the fence.  He pulled it back so he could look into the neighbors yard and of course Chester was over there in an instant.  When I found them, Isaiah was peering through the fence saying in the calmest little voice, “Decher… Decher…”  Of course I freaked out and had to ask the neighbors if I could come into their backyard and get my runaway animal, which I found embarrassing.

We blocked up the loose board and everything was fine for a week, until Isaiah decided he wanted to unblock it to check out what the neighbors were up to.  We had a repeat of the above story, but this time Chris took more permanent measures with the fence.  He got out his drill and screws to fasten the board down.  Isaiah handed him a handful of screws and said, “I help!”  So his cuteness got him out of trouble again.  I can’t say the same for the dog.

I have the sweetest husband.  I don’t talk about him in my blog as much as some members of my family, but it’s only because he doesn’t talk in adorable baby talk (if he did, we’d be worried) or have hilarious antics on a daily basis.  But he really is the most amazing person in my life!  He is my best friend and I couldn’t live with out him.  And last night he gave me the sweetest compliment!  I can’t tell you because it’s our secret, but he totally made my night.  And that’s why I have the sweetest husband!
