No trick or treating

Hey all it has been awhile. Last weekend Braden started running a fever again, I thought that he was just cutting some more teeth. After the 4 day of fever and him not eating or drinking well I finally got him in to see Dr Cox last Tues. Sure enough he had a nasty throat but the strep screen was negative and he had an ear infection in his right ear. So back to the fight of antibiotics, and since he has tubes in his ears the ear infection didn't make me happy. Last Thursday afternoon he then develops a viral rash. Needless to say he was in no mood to get dressed up and trick or treat. His rash was a little better on Friday and we felt bad about not letting him go trick or treating, so we took him to Terre Haute to Little Caesars play gym had pizza and went to Toys R Us. He ended with a new broom (which is his favorite toy) and a cop care with lights and sirens. So over the weekend he was acting much better finally. Monday morning I had class at work so Braden stayed home with Chad in the morning. Chad calls me about 8:30am Braden had climb out of his crib (which made me cry). We converted his crib to a toddler bed and now he will not sleep in it. I think he has some problems with change and is a little hard headed and I am not sure were he gets it:). So last night we were up 4 times and up for good at about 6:00am. Hopefully tonight we can sleep!!! I will post pics later.

Fun filled weekend

We had a great weekend with wonderful weather!! On Friday we had a family trip to Wal-Mart, had lunch, Chad mowed, and Braden & I went and saw great grandma Crynes and went and got ice cream with great grandma Edwards and Chad's mom. Friday night our friend Heath came over and had supper with us and it was great to get catch up!! Chad's cousin Mandy was home for the weekend so she stopped by with her 3 kids and Aunt Lou Lou. Braden had the best time playing with his cousins.

Saturday we got up early Chad went deer hunting. Braden and I met mamaw and papaw Crynes for breakfast then we headed to Lark Ranch in Loogoottee for the afternoon!! Braden was such a big boy he walked the entire trip:) After we left the the ranch we spent the rest of the afternoon with mimi and pappy Shelton. Braden got to sweep (one of his favorite things to do) lots of leaves off the porch with the help of mimi of course.

Saturday night Braden and I went to Logans Birthday party. Braden played and played. He also went on a hay-ride and fell asleep. I didn't get any pics because none of the kids would stop long enought to have their picture taken.

Sunday we went to Chads mom's for lunch and lazyed around the rest of the day:) I think we all needed it after Sat:)

Covered bridge fest.

Today Braden and I went to the Covered bridge fest with my friend Penny and her step-daughter Ava. We had an great time there just wasn't much that interested me this year and the weather was too warm. Which is fine because then I spent less money :) Braden did spot 2 tractor shirts that we had to buy. Chad went fishing all day so I am sure he had a blast.

Last week we were so busy and this weeks looks about the same. I took this weekend off so that I could go with Chad to his college reunion. He had a really good time and it was ok for me I didn't know anyone but I tried to make the best of it for him:), so I will be working three days durning the week like last week.

Hello everyone!! I am going to try this blog thing. I hope yo update at least weekly but we will see. Now that I am working days I should be able to find the time. I want to thank Penny, Tera, and Melissa for the idea I really enjoy reading all of your blogs:)

Braden is getting so big!! He is learning new things everyday. We finally got passed a big stone last Friday he finally gave the bottle:) ( I was thinking that I would be packing in his lunch for school) I has been a little whinny this week he is cutting a couple more teeth. I ready for all that to be over with.

No big plans for the weekend Chad and I have to work all weekend, so Braden will get to enjoy a couple days with his grandparents:)
