A bit about a button

Curious Case of Benjamin Button- saw it last night...cried my eyes out. I was so moved by the ending that I was still crying as I was brushing my teeth 15 minutes later. Not a pretty site, but the way.

What an incredible movie! And, like all good flicks that strike a cord, this one really makes you "think." Think about life, think about your relationships, how you spend your time.

SO- I'm going to avoid the computer this weekend and spend some quality time with the fam!

Happy weekend and hope your weather is as beautiful as mine!

Hey Internet, I'm walking in the March for Babies walk on April 25th at Centennial Park. I know times are tight right now and fundage isn't always that availble, but every little bit helps!

Thanks!

Still fighting this stupid cold. Went to the doctor yesterday and he put me on an antibiotic. Lovely. It makes me feel dizzy. SO, now I act more flighty than ever!

The weather that moved through Atlanta on Monday took our power out for a couple of days. It finally came back on last night around 10p. Fortunately, it's not that hot outside, so sleeping the night before wasn't too bad.

We had to run up to one of our rentals in Gainesville last night. A big Oak tree came down in that same storm. It's leaning against another big Oak tree. And, you guessed it, insurance doesn't cover a thing since it hasn't landed on property. Doesn't mean we can leave it until it falls, just means that we have to come up with the $$ to take it down. Great.

and yes, I've basically been sick the entire time we've been here. I LOVE a good cold. Think I'm heading to El Doctor on Tuesday.

Weekend in Charleston has been very fun! Had a very nice date night with my hubby last night. Gavin has had a blast with his Aunt and Uncle.

Heading home tomorrow, not looking forward to the drive at all.

Heading to Charleston, SC tomorrow! Very exciting! AND, I'm feeling a little tickle in my throat- YAY! I LOVE getting sick just before vacation!

Wait, hold the presses- my little man is counting the stairs all the way down...holy cow! He made it to 20! Baby Genius!!!! And now he's crying for a cupcake...the moments are fleeting folks, but they're worth it!

On another mom note, check out this HILARIOUS video- MOM SONG. I cracked up! Even if you're not a mom, you'll recognize most of the key mom phrases this woman sings!

Guess I ought to go figure out why my child hasn't stopped screaming...

Today was a good day ~ we went to a birthday party for a couple of Gavin's friends- Sarah and Dash. It was at one of those kid's gyms where they run around, eat a bunch of sugar, then run around more. Love it.

Gavin actually gave the zip line a shot- mommy was proud!

He also followed around his "girlfriend" Sophia all day! It was totally adorable!

Sun is shining, there's no pollen on the ground, not a cloud in the sky...and I'm stuck inside with a sick little boy and hubby. My men are sick, in the first weekend we've had in several weeks without rain. Yes, life is good.

All joking aside, I'm sure we'll head out a little later this afternoon. Neither one of them are much for just sitting around ~ we all get cabin fever in a few seconds!

I think little man has allergies, unfortunately. He was holed up at home for the past couple of days with watery eyes and stuffy nose. Poor guy. Yesterday, we kept him home and watched movies on the couch all day. He drifted in and out of sleep. Right now, I'm thankful for all the rain to wash away that pollen!!!

Finally the trees are popping and the green is starting to fill in our backyard. It's so beautiful! Hopefully, we'll get to work outside a little bit this weekend.

Looking forward to Sunday, Gavin has a birthday party to go to for a couple of his school friends. I love going to kid parties! They crack me up! All these little 3 year olds running around like crazy- totally hilarious!
