Somewhat "After"

Remember when I posted here about what we were doing one Saturday??  Well I still haven't gotten pictures of the whole room put together.  We painted and then had family in town, then went out of town ourselves, then everyone got sick.  I have had tons of opportunities to take pictures, but then you would see the books and jackets on the back of the couch, all the toys that still haven't been put away, and all the junk piled on my table.  Lets be honest here, I am just too lazy to clean right now.  I will show you this pic of the top of my hutch.  I am trying to figure what I want up there.  All of these things are not up there right now, but I threw them up there to get a vision.  You can tell in this picture the color of the wall. 
If you see what I see, then you see a blue wall that looks like it belongs in a newborn baby boys room.  It actually is a little darker than the picture makes it out to be, but we would have liked a little darker.  When we went to Lowes to get the paint I was a little scared of making the room too dark.  So I found a color I really liked and then went a shade lighter, because in my experience paint drys darker in my house.  Well the first time I thought I made smart decision with paint, it actually wasn't so smart after all.  We only painted one wall for an accent wall thank goodness!

We still have more than half a gallon left.  It would be so nice if they would just give us another squirt of coloring in the can so we can repaint it!  Anyone know if they do things like that?  My guess is NO!  They are going to tell me to buy another gallon of paint. 

We are on spring break this week, so we don't have Jackson.  So maybe, just maybe I will get my house back in order.  Or maybe I will just be lazy because I only have one kid to chase after, better yet we may just go shopping!!  Have a great day!

Getting back to normal.....

Bailey is slowly getting back to her normal self.  She is still not eating very much and is very cranky.  She is fighting naps and giving us a hard time during the day.  She can turn that smile into a cry faster than I can turn my head.  I hope she is still just recovering from being sick.  Lets just say if this is the beginning of terrible two's we are in for a cranky momma too!  Thank for all of those that left comments while she was sick, it means a lot to know you were thinking of her!

Heres some pictures of Bailey wishing she had an IPhone!

Sick Baby

We went to Charlotte this past weekend hoping for a good time to shop and catch up with one of Jason’s friend.  I have some pictures from the weekend but haven’t even uploaded them to my computer.  We did do lots of shopping and visiting with family.  We were having a great time and everything was going smoothly. Until…..Saturday night!!!  I went to put Bailey down for bed while Jason ran downstairs to the hotel.  Within a matter of 10 minutes Bailey had gotten really sick.  She had vomited 3 times in bed and wasn’t stopping!  This lasted until about 1 in the morning.  We thought she was feeling better that morning and figured it was just a 24 hour thing.  Well she ended up getting sick twice in the car on the way home.  Once again she didn’t get sick the rest of day or night so we thought we were in the clear! WRONG AGAIN!  She got sick again all day Monday.  She couldn’t even keep water down.  We ended up taking her to ER Monday evening because she only wanted to sleep and wouldn’t walk much.  She ended up being dehydrated and had to be on an IV for 4 hours.  She did better than I thought she would with the IV.  She cried when they were putting in in but that's about it.  She was so tired that she didn’t bother it much at all.  So needless to say we have been in bed for days now.  Bailey still isn’t back to her normal self, very sleepy and cranky.   Here are a few pictures from hospital.  (They are from my cell phone so they are not very good quality at all.)

Where does …….

the time go?  We finally got some nice weather here the past few days.  We have been outside a few times but I am still a little leery of the chilly wind so we don’t stay out for long amounts of time.  I know am a worry wart, but that’s just me.  I snapped this picture at lunch time today and remember I had one from spring time last year that was pretty similar.  Isn’t funny how fast they change and seem so mature less in less than a year?  At least we got rid of the ponytail on top that everyone called a waterfall.  Its not a waterfall ok???

I believe I am back to blogging.  I know its difficult to get through the day when I don’t post regularly! haha kidding.    I have lots and lots of pictures to catch you up on.  We have had play dates, visitors, and tons of stories to share with you.  We have one more little trip coming up this weekend and I am taking a break from traveling.  Plus spring break is around the corner and I don’t have to babysit for a whole week! We will miss you Jacksypoo. This also means that you will see the finished product of what happened here.
