Sunday = Funday!!

Sunday Funday!! We've had such a good little Sunday around here. We made a trip out to Garden Ridge, Target, and Houston Garden Center. Target is having a major summer clearance sale and we snagged another bubble machine and bubbles for super cheap. Houston Garden Center is having a huge sale too and every plant is 70% off!! We got another peach tree and five other plants for $34! One of the plants I bought today, I bought the exact same plant a couple months ago from Lowe's for $17. I got it today for $6!!! SCORE! We are going to start landscaping the backyard. Currently this isn't a single tree or plant back there. Although I do have to admit the pumpkins and watermelons did awesome but they've since been picked.
Yesterday Ricky converted both the girls' cribs into toddler daybeds. They are so excited about their new big girl room. We really didn't want to take them out of cribs yet but Madi was climbing out of her crib and the Pedi said we needed to go ahead and get her into a toddler bed so she wouldn't hurt herself. And of course you can't change one's bed and not the other so Gracie's was changed too. We put them to sleep last night and I checked on them a couple of hours later. Gracie had made her way into Madi's bed and they were sound asleep. It seriously is the sweetest thing to see. I am so happy my girls have each other.
Brody is still in his crib. His bed also converts but with his vision we aren't ready to let him free. He is back to normal and you wouldn't even know he was in the hospital just a week ago.
The kids went swimming in their little pool earlier today and Brody was up walking around without holding on. He drives me crazy with this because he CAN walk but will only do it without crying when he WANTS to. Any other time it's a huge whine fest when he is walking and he wants to throw himself on the ground in a fit. That lazy little boy....
We have a follow up appointment with the Pedi tomorrow to check on all their lungs and see how the medications are working. They seem to be a lot better but who knows until we see the xrays. This is our last week of summer preschool. Our Tuesdays and Thursdays will be free until after Labor Day. Speech therapy starts tomorrow and I'm very interested to see how they will respond since it will be in home this time around. Overall I think Speech therapist are a little "different" they seem to speak in weird low monotype tones... can we say awkward?? Anyway, maybe this time will be different?? We shall see.
I'm so burn out with school.... OMG I'm over it! It pains me to keep going forward! I should have taken some breaks but haven't and with a full workload since I've started back last fall, work, and life, it's a whole lot. I'm also past ready for another vacation. Oh yes I am! I think I've hit insanity because I've thought about taking the kids on a Disney cruise. It's not secret I really only like my kids so to even consider going just shows my mental state LOL :)
Little Momma aka Madi is holding Brody's hand showing him how to walk. They are walking the living room side by side holding hands. Yall are missing out on all this sweetness my friends!!

Until next time,
