Ever since my mom and them have left it's like everything has been turned upside down. I never knew how much my mom and sister help me in everyday life. I really appreciate all they do for me and miss them terribly. I know they miss Connor and so I thought I would recap our past week so they would know what we have been into.
Wednesday, June 25
th- That morning Mom and the crew headed to Germany. Connor went to daycare as usual and I had a lot of errands to do for me and mom. Building a house is a lot of work and a lot to keep up with. Not much went on out of the ordinary.
Thursday, June 26
th- We got up got Connor ready and he went to Ms. Jennifer's as he does everyday. I ran my errands and prepared for a closing at the bank for Mom. My work,plus her work, plus office work, plus two houses full of work, = a very tired me.
LOL. The closing went great and then I picked up Connor from daycare and we went home and did our nightly routine. Happy Birthday to Jon today.
Friday, June 27
th-Finally it's Friday! Connor went to daycare and I went to work and ran more errands. That afternoon I had to show a house. I also went to visit Alison and
Channing before they left for vacation. Arden was at
Mim's. Well after I picked Connor up from daycare Mike, Alison, Arden, and
Channing all came by the house to tell us bye and play for a few minutes. Friday night Connor went and spent the night with Wes' mom. Wes and I went to the cabin and we had some friend come and hang out for my birthday. It was fun.
Saturday, June 28
th- We woke up and cleaned up at the cabin. Wes and I went home to pack. Then Wes went to get Connor. While he was gone I finished packing to get ready to go to my dad's. When Wes got back we waited for Salem. When he arrived and we got the car packed we headed for Chattanooga. When we got there we got our bathing suits on and went swimming for a while. My dad has a pool and Connor loves the water. We swam for an hour or so and then got ready for a fun trip downtown. We parked and went to eat at the Big River Grill. It was awesome the food was delicious. After dinner we walked across this neat bridge to get to Coolidge Park. The view is amazing I never realized how beautiful it was there. At Coolidge Park Connor and Salem rode the indoor Carousel. It was so neat. Then came the fun part. They had the water that shoots up out the ground. Connor had a blast. He would run and around and just laugh. He had the best time. Then it was about to rain so we headed back over the bridge and back to the car. We barely made it to the car before it started flooding. We had to stop at
Walmart and get some things and then we headed back to the house to crash after an awesome day.
Sunday, June 29
th- We woke up and piddled around until time to get ready to go to Lake Winnie. They do not open until 12 so we had the whole morning to get ready. The park is only five minutes from Dad's house. We pulled in and paid and they stamped our hands. We had so much fun. Connor loved riding all the little kid rides. Salem and Wes rode a lot of the bigger rides. It is a really neat place to take your family. It was very clean and it has a really pretty view. We stayed there for about 4 or 5 hours and then it started to rain so we headed back to the house. After the rain stopped we went swimming again. Before we started packing to go home Dad washed the car for us. He is great. Then Connor, Wes, and I headed back to
McVegas. Salem stayed with Dad. They were going to a Braves game on Tuesday night. When we got home we all went to bed to get rested for another week.
Monday, June 30
th- Mrs. Jennifer is on vacation this week so Connor has had a different babysitter everyday. Monday he went to Aunt Wendy's. I took him about 8:30am dropped him off to play. They went and saw
Nonny and had the best time. I stopped by to check on our house and then headed to the office for a closing. It was pretty quiet at the office. Most people are on vacation. That afternoon I went to get Connor and then we went home to see Wes. Donald ordered pizza and we just hung out at the house doing some laundry and stuff.
Tuesday, July 1st- Today Connor went to stay with Wes' mom. They played hard all day long. I worked and not much went on again today at the office. That afternoon I met Wes out at the house to look at the siding they had started to put up. It is coming together and I am getting so excited. Then we went to pick up Connor and ate supper with his mom and grandparents. Then Wes had a church league game. So we went to the fair grounds and Connor played with Annabella. They won there game. Wes took Connor home for me. Laura, Kaye, and I went walking at the Civic Center. Then I headed home to go to bed.
Wednesday, July 2
nd- Today Connor went to stay with Annabella Grace. They had so much fun playing with each other yesterday. I was so worried that Connor would kill Erin. She said he was so good. I was so happy. I worked as usual then about five I headed that way to get the wild man. We played for a little while longer and Erin cooked supper and we brought it home for Connor and Wes. Then we went to check on the house and see the progress. We headed back home and played. Connor had his bath and was so tired from playing with Annabella that he went to bed early. After he went to sleep and went to Kaye's and hung out for a little while. Then I came home and both my guys were sound asleep. I was crashed out shortly after that.
Thursday, July 3rd- Today has been alright and not too stressful. Connor went to stay with Kaye today. He loves playing at her house. This afternoon I am going to visit my best friend Lauren. She is such a strong person with all she is going through. She is truly my hero. Please keep her in your prayers. Tonight Kaye is cooking out because some family is coming in for the holiday. We are so excited. Well I know I might have bored you but I wanted to fill my mom in on how we are doing.
Pics from these adventures are coming soon!
Hope everyone has a great weekend. Be safe and do not eat too much.
LOL. Have a Happy 4
