Long Easter Weekend

So my li'l man and I have been sick for the past three days now. Not a fun way to spend a long holiday weekend. The LO had a fever since Thursday night that fluctuated between 102-105. He was up every hour practically from Friday evening until Saturday morning. Plus he was super super extra needy and wanted mama to just sit by him the whole time. That worked out mostly b/c I was feeling sick too.
Thankfully, his fever finally went away on it's own tonight before bedtime. I'm praying that it stays away. What we are now left with, it seems, is a nasty annoying cough. I hope to get him in to see his pediatrician tomorrow. Just to make sure we're not overlooking something more serious.
Despite all the fever, he did at least mostly behaved and played as usual. He laid down and watched a lot of TV too but overall he was in good spirits. DH said that the little guy even seemed to be chattier than usual. I would have I agree.
I'm pretty bummed that we missed out on having a nice Easter weekend. On the plus side, I did get to watch all of season 1 and most of season 2 of Duck Dynasty. Heeheehee. Seriously, that show had me in stitches several times this past weekend. I sincerely recommend catching this show if you haven't already.
Well, I hope you all had a lovely Easter weekend! I leave you with some pics of the li'l guy from these past three days. Oh and of the delicious homemade chicken noodle soup that my DH made for us tonight. 😊

Play-doh

Last week I babysat my BFFs two little kiddos and I brought my little fella along for the fun. I found out that night that B really really likes play-doh. It kept him entertained for more that 15 mins and to me that's a win-win!
So yesterday I remembered that B had received a play set with some type of play-doh for his 2nd birthday (back in December). Opened it up for him yesterday and he's still wanting to play with it today. Yay for great gifts!

Simple and sweet gift

My pastor's wife asked me a couple of days ago if I could come up with a small gift idea to give to one of the young ladies at church that was stepping done from her college ministry role because she was graduating. I came up with this and thought it was simple and sweet. Ahhh...how I miss crafting.

Toys

I remember when he had just turned one and got this as a gift. I remember thinking, "is he ever going to figure it out?" Now he knows to to find the power switch to just about any toy. Very early in the morning too. 😣😁😉
I do love the fact that I can ask him to pick his toys and put them away and he (usually) obliges.
Happy Wednesday y'all!

B updates

So my little man is now 2.25 years old. I can't believe how fast the time has FLOWN by. I really am beyond blessed to be a SAHM (stay at home mom). And to have been one since B was born. So lucky. And I can't believe how much he talks. Talks and talks and talks. Says the funniest things. Remembers so much. I'm in awe. Today's newest accomplishment was him opening the refrigerator door and pulling out the milk jug to ask for some more milk. Cray cray! I heart him so. All 35 lbs of him. And he still wants me to pick him up all the time. Oh my aching back! I'll do it for as long as I can though. Mama is cray cray like that.
Anyways...prepare yourself for a photo heavy post. My favorite kind of post!

Making a comeback

It's been almost FIVE months since my last blog post?! What happened? I blame it again on poor IT service here at Casa de Park. I can't go on blogging mentally and not internetally. Haha. Yes, I just made up that word.

Well...I'm still not yet set up with a good blogging workspace so it shall be done from my phone as often as I can remember.

At this moment I'm catching up on the latest episode of Glee. This show always make me happy. You want to know why else make me happy? This guy:
