Home again!

What a beautiful day! Since our weather in PA is a few days behind KY, I'm getting to enjoy this twice! We've got the windows open and the door open letting in all of the fresh air and it feels so good. I am so ready for spring to be here so that Corban can get outside and play and we won't all be stuck in this house all day long.

What a week we've had too! Corban and I went to KY to visit and have a family birthday party for him down there. He was a little stinker at his party, but he seemed to enjoy it all the same. Honestly, if you were there you won't believe me, but he was such a good little boy for the rest of the time! But, while we were there we got to visit with Sherry, Kerry, Lynn, and Carter. Corban beat up on Carter a little bit - sorry Sherry - but it was fun to see him with other little ones his age. He had his party on Sunday and got to see both of his grandmothers and cousins Grace and Simon. It was a really busy day and he slept so good that night. Tuesday we got to go see Brenda and we both got haircuts - I'll post Corban's picture when I get things downloaded. We also went to storytime with big cousin Grace and went back to Nana's to play outside. Poppy gave him tractor rides and we got to eat at Leono's. Everyone looked at me weird when I ordered a lasagna and then said I was going to eat some of their pizza too - but they really got a kick out of me saying that I wanted to go to Dairy Queen after dinner. Did everyone else realize that Cynthiana does not have a Dairy Queen at all - they're both something different now.

Yesterday we drove back home and actually made the trip with only one stop! I was afraid that Pittsburgh traffic was going to do us in, but it wasn't horrible at all. I am so impressed with that little boy - he fussed for a few minutes ONE time and I gave him some milk and that was it. He actually slept for almost 4 of the 8 hour trip, which was a huge relief for me. Oh, and bathroom breaks worked out surprisingly well. He just stood where I told him and there were no mishaps! It's going to be while before I do any traveling by myself though after this. I know that once Caden is a little older I'll be able to do it again, but it's gonna take some time.

Well, everyone have a wonderful week and enjoy what's left of this beautiful weather!

Cynthiana hasn't had an MSP in how long and it still gets called that? Long live the DQ!

I had no idea it was no longer MSP. :)
I need to see pictures of the new haircut (Corban and still Kim!). I'm visiting Brenda myself tomorrow and I can't wait - Leono's too I'm sure, but probably not whatever the Dairy Queen is. Perhaps you have finally out-eaten me. :)
