McRibs are back!

The news doesn't get any better, while driving through McDonald's to get a cheeseburger I was greeted and asked if I would like to try a Mcrib today, generally I find the people asking me if I want to try something annoying, but it made my day!!!

So for all of you who don't know!

MCRIBS ARE BACK!!

Evening out with Mommy

Yesterday evening Dylan and I decided to take the evening and we went to paint pottery! It was so much fun, and not too hard to do! It was relaxing (and yes even with a 2yr old painting beside me) He helped me paint a plate and then he painted a butterfly he chose off the shelf. Now that I know how much fun it was we plan on going a lot more! Then after pottery we went for ice cream and to go see the fountain at Wabash Landing.

It was a super fun evening, with both of us doing something we enjoy. Here are some pictures. There are no pictures of what we painted, because those are a surprise and they are not ready, and it takes a week. Also there are none of us painting because I had no free hands, as you can imagine :-)

Dylan trying to stay awake when I kept asking if he was asleep.

It didn't work.

Eating his ice cream.

The mess on his shirt is paint not ice cream ,which washes out super easy.

His hands were messy, so he was trying to figure out how and if he could wash them in the fountain.

My Big Boy!

Today we threw a small Big Boy party for Dylan. He is off his bottle. He's not 100% in love with the idea yet, but we thought the party and some other little things we have planned may help him get that way, so thank you guys for coming and having cupcakes with us! We really do have some of the greatest friends. I thought nothing would make Dylan happier than baseballs he could eat! I was right :-)

Its now 10:31, and Dylan is sound asleep with no bottle - after just a few minutes of me singing to him.-

Had to do the Ice Cream quiz!

You're Coffee.
Compared to other ice creams, coffee ice cream has a strong flavor, and it's packed with caffeinated sweetness. You're like that, too! You're always busy, and determined to stay focused as you move from one task to the next. You get frustrated when other people slow you down or hold you back, but when you're in control, you can find ways around any obstacle.

6% of the people who took this quiz got the same evaluation.

Dylan's Book

I got a sewing machine for Christmas, but I haven't really had the time or the know how to use it, but I figured it would be fun to make some things and just learn how to use it. So I went over to Christina's last night after the kids were sleeping and she watched over me and helped me learn how to complete my first project! I am super excited even though its not a huge project, it's a start and Dylan loved it.

The Beach

Hey everyone!

It's been forever since our last post. We have been back home in Ohio since July 4th weekend, and having so much fun! We have finally arrived at the beach, and its day 2! Here are some pictures of what we have been up to so far.

Everyone just relaxing.

Playing with 2 of his favorite people.


Time for sandcastles! If you notice in this picture no one is actually in the ocean, and that's because a shark was spotted! and they pulled everyone out! Dylan was excited...lol...



I am sure we will have more to post later, so far it feels like we have done alot and had so much fun, and it's only Tuesday!

4th of July

We had an amazing 4th of July. Dylan loved seeing the fireworks, but he wasn't crazy about the sound they made. We also celebrated my Mawmaw's 80th Birthday, so we had family in we hadn't seen in years. It was a long day, full of food, family, fireworks, and a campfire with smores, it was a great celebration!! And of coarse we have pictures.

Dylan & mom roasting marshmallow.

Papaw showing Dylan the stars

Deep conversation over Smores (I think it had something to do with Disc Golf)

And this is how our little man went down for the night.

Sparklers were the big hit!
