Behind..........
I think this is the longest I have gone without putting something in the blog and it's killing me! I've been so busy with swim lessons, Financial Peace University classes, and packing that I just haven't had much time! The big move is this Friday and man am I ready! Our current place is just filled with boxes so I am ready to get things moved, unpacked, and organized and back to a regular life! Hopefully a better blog posting will come after this weekend IF I don't collapse from exhaustion!

Busy, busy weekend! & Tooth #4
I am so ready for our move to be over with! I am tired of packing boxes, moving boxes, and looking at boxes! Just a couple more weeks and it will be over with! Friday evening I spent packing boxes and making piles in the living room, trying to get all the packed boxes out of the bedrooms so we know exactly what we have left to pack in there. We have hired a couple guys to help us move so I don't think our move is going to be that bad, just a little time consuming.
Saturday we went to the Farmer's Market and believe it or not, we didn't get a darn thing! It was so busy that it was difficult to get up close enough to the stuff to see so we just ended up leaving. We went out to Briella's Consignment in Savoy and man did we get some awesome deals! They were having a bag sale which was amazing. Fill up your bag and pay just $15 for the entire bag! We ended up getting two bags of clothes for Ramsay. We added up all the price tags when we got home and if we had paid the full resale shop price on all the items, it would have been just over $200 but we paid just $30 for it all! We were so excited. I even went back a little bit later and got a couple bags of clothes for myself. I needed some new tops as I seem to be wearing the same ones over and over again. Later Saturday afternoon the three of us went out to mom's house to hang for awhile and Larry fixed dinner. Mom had foot surgery earlier in the week and isn't able to get around so we decided to go visit for awhile. And finally yesterday, we did a couple errands but pretty much stayed at home the rest of the day because it was soooooooo hot. There was a heat advisory so we thought it was best just to stay inside and relax. Ramsay was pretty cranky yesterday afternoon and evening and I wondered if his gums were bothering him. I finally got my finger into his mouth and sure enough, tooth #4 finally poked through the gum. That makes two teeth he's gotten in the last week. I'm hoping for a bit of a break now!
Larry's parents stopped by Friday morning for a quick visit and brought Ramsay this cute little school bus. He loves sitting on the floor playing with it! I tried playing with him when I got home from work but he kept taking the people away from me! lol
Ramsay has now discovered the cat toys! He was getting pretty good at shaking them around. Nimbus was watching him very closely and I thought he was going to start playing with Ramsay but he didn't. I'm sure that will come soon enough though.....
This is how I found my little angel baby sleeping during his afternoon nap yesterday. When he woke up he cried because I think his legs and feet were asleep. Silly kid!

4th of July Weekend
Is it really Thursday already? My how this past weekend just flew by and so has the rest of this week! That's okay though, I LIVE for the weekends!
This past weekend was somewhat busy and fun! Saturday was sooooooo hot that we didn't even venture outside until late evening and that was for grocery shopping! Fun times I tell ya! Sunday, Mom, Ramsay and I went to Mattoon to visit my grandma and of course, she just thinks the world of Ramsay. He entertained all of us by "hopping" around on the living room floor (my grandma says he looks like a frog when he's moving now), and then playing in his pool out in her yard. He had a great time at great grandma's house!
I LOVE this picture of my grandma and Ramsay. SO SWEET!!!!
The 4th of July Larry had the day off so we got to spend it all together as a family which was nice, even though we really didn't do much. We took Ramsay to Prairie Farms and that was fun. I think Larry and I had more fun looking at the animals than Ramsay did. He didn't seem impressed at all by them. After that we went to another park and walked around for a bit. It was nice just spending time together since we don't get to do that very often with Larry and I's work schedules. All in all it was a pretty good weekend!
