Already Tuesday

Well, I have been wanting to try to post more frequently but haven't been doing a very good job of it.  From a work standpoint I am saying "it's only Tuesday" but from a blogging perspective I am saying "it's already Tuesday"! I missed posting Friday about last week, so here is last week and this past weekend all together! 

Last week Brennen and I went over to Ryan's parents to have dinner and let B play with his cousins.  B and Landen had a blast playing together.  We are in big trouble with these two hams!



Showing me their muscles!

They both climbed into Landen's bed and started reading...too precious!

Friday night we went to Ryan's last basketball game for his Freshman team and got to cheer them on to a victory!  Then we stayed for some of the Varsity game.  Brennen's eye was really red and swollen the whole day so he wasn't really in the mood to be in a big crowd.  Before the game even started his sty decided it was time to pop and so he kept saying "eye hurts" and I could see that there was some "goo" in his eye.  Of course I hadn't planned for this to happen while we were out so wasn't really prepared. Needless to say, we stayed for half the game then went home and put B to bed. 

This is what we looked like every time the band played!

We finally had a weekend all together that Ryan didn't have basketball practice.  His coaching season is winding down and we aren't going to know what to do when he doesn't have to go to practice or games anymore. 

Saturday morning I woke up to Brennen calling for me from his crib and by the time I rolled over and looked at the monitor, he was hanging halfway over the side of his crib and I thought he was going to jump/fall out.  He has gotten to the point of wanting to do everything by himself.  He wants to help us do EVERYTHING, and if we do something without him participating you would think it was the end of the world!  He has been trying to climb into his crib too, so we figured it was probably time to move him to a toddler bed.  We headed to Nebraska Furniture Mart to get the converter piece and decided to just go ahead and put it on.  Brennen was pretty excited about being able to climb in and out of his bed all by himself!

We were having some friends over to watch the KU game that night, so I was a little nervous about our decision, but of course our boy did great! I read him some books in the bed and did our normal goodnight routine.  He got up once, but I went in and laid with him for a few minutes and within 10 minutes he was out!  He has been doing great for both naps and bedtime! 

On Sunday we spent the whole day at home and Ryan actually said "I'm bored".  If you know us, I am usually the one to say this and he is the one always wanting to sit at home! He isn't used to not having anything to do so this made me laugh!  We ended up getting some bushes torn out in front of our house that had died from the drought we had last year and took the dogs for a walk before it got too cold. 

I told B to put his hands in his pockets if he was cold then he road like this the rest of the walk!

It was so wonderful to be able to spend so much time with my husband!  We are supposed to get some pretty bad weather here Thursday then I am getting two of my wisdom teeth out on Friday.  Looks like a very boring weekend in my future.  Have a great rest of the week!
