Friday afternoon started with a visit from the exterminator after I found a DISGUSTINGLY SCARY scorpion in the kitchen during naptime! UGH!!! They treated the entire house, but now we are dealing with these gross gnats as well. I HATE bugs!!!! :/ The night got just worse as Liam would not eat dinner and I just knew he had ANOTHER ear infection. Rick took him to carenow and sure enough, an ear infection in the right ear. ugh...spring is NOT our season for sicknesses. Pretty much sick free all winter and since the end of April, it has been nonstop! :( poor babies. We got some antibiotics and all of us were in bed by 9:30ish.
Saturday was a new day and Liam already seemed better! I went out for a long run Saturday morning and then we all went out to breakfast. After breakfast, we played for a while at the park and then headed home for lunch and naps. We were scheduled to have some friends over on Saturday and since ear infections are really not contagious, they were still open to coming, so we were excited!!!
I met Farabe one random shopping day at Tuesday morning. She has two twin boys, 9.5 months, and they have just moved here from Utah. Her husband is originally from Long Island and she is from right outside of Myrtle Beach. We bumped strollers in an aisle and talked for over an hour. ;) Her husband works in a similar field as Rick so I thought they might get along well too! They got here around 4ish and we had the best time!!!! My friend Pat just moved here a few months ago and has been going back and forth on weekend to NJ, but last weekend he stayed in town and came by for a few hours too. We made steaks on the grill and had wine and beers. So much fun!!!! Rick and Justin got along REALLY well and even made plans for all of us to go to the Ft Worth Zoo on Monday, which we did and had so much fun there as well. Rowan just loved having some buddies here for a change and Liam loved playing with the babies. Wish I got some pictures!
Sunday morning, both kids slept til 8:30! We were bad and skipped church and just lounged around napping and playing. It was a perfect day. After naps, we headed to Fairview to do the Splash park. Rowan LOVED it and Liam really enjoyed being back! He ran and ran! And Rowan just sat and splashed. SO cute!
Could not catch him!!!! ;)
When we got home, Rick and I were craving crabs! Rick never would eat them with me, so the fact that he wanted them, made me want them even more!!!!!!! We found a place in Richardson area and he went t pick them up. We got a a dozen and they were not EXACTLY Maryland crabs, but pretty gross and pretty darn yummy. In bed again at 9ish because we had a big day on Monday!
Justin and Farabe met us at our house at 10 am on Monday morning and we all headed out to Ft Worth. Rowan slept the whole way and Liam was awesome in the car. Took about an hour. We loaded up the wagon and entered the zoo around 11:30. We made it back to our cars around 1:30 so we walked for a good two hours in the heat, but had an awesome time. All of the kids were really well behaved!!! Another couple met us there. They have a 2 year old girl and she was 36 weeks preggo with a boy! Props to her for hanging all day!!!!
Liam had a blast and his fave was definitely the crocodile. Here are a few pics....
