Tunnel pics

These were taken a few weeks ago at the Mason's, but they were taken on jared's phone, so I couldn't post them until he "bumped" them to me.

Week in review

Sunday--Porter has not been feeling well or eating well. Strangely enough, he's been sleeping well, but coughing all night long. He took a long nap this morning, a short nap this afternoon, and then fell asleep on the way to Mexican night. He did ok at the Mexican restaurant until the end, and ya gotta do what ya gotta do.... He has thoroughly enjoyed his grape blowpop.
(Wrong end, buddy.)





Saturday--we went to the beach, and it was a good time, but the weather was pretty crappy. It was windy and cloudy, the water was ugly and had a lot of foamy stuff washing up (no oil), and it was kinda chilly. We still got some sun on our pasty bodies (high on my priority list this summer) and made the best of it. No pictures this time though. It was hard enough trying to keep everything from blowing away and keep Porter from being swept out to sea--he still loves the water.
Monday--Friday--we have had a fairly normal week. I am thoroughly enjoying being back on days and getting to do normal mommy things at night. Some people really take all the reular mundane things for granted, but I enjoy every minute of it. I would rock him to sleep every night if he would let me, but he's getting to be too big for that apparently, because most nights he just points to his bed.
He ate good all week, and is still loving his green beans. This week we tried corn and sweet potatoes again and they just ended up on the floor. And in one fit of throwing food some bluberry applesauce ended up on the ceiling. We noticed that this afternoon. And I am again eating words--I swore I would never have hamburger helper again when moved out on my own, but this week we got excited when publix had them buy one get one free. It's quick and easy, and Porter eats them all. Not what I always envisioned my child eating for dinner, but at least he is usually eating it, and at a decent hour.








I think I have scrubbed the purple glaze from my little boy and the handprints from the side of the tub. We have a new dose of tylenol on board, plans in place for making a doctor visit tomorrow, and daddy is on an ice cream run. Settling in for the evening....

Don't feel good

We are at mcdonald's trying to get porter to eat and to get a change if scenery. Porter has a nasty cough and snotty nose, so nothing in our house has been appetizing.






He did eat a few fries and drank apple juice (full strength juice is a treat too), but that's it.

Porter's first black eye

Porter got off his cot during nap time today and tried to climb on the table. All he managed to do was get a black eye.







(picture below) This is where he is almost every day when I get to daycare to pick him up....






Also, I went by southeastern salvage today in mobile to browse for ideas and good deals for the new house. I found this cute pirate rug for $9.00 and I couldn't pass it up. (porter's room is pirate themed.) It's 39" x 56". I thought it was so cute.

Bubble fun deteriorates

It didn't take long until we were just smearing soapy water and fighting over "tools."
