Friday: James had an awesome week at work and got a new account that his boss was really excited about. As a reward, they gave him a $50 gift card to Texas Roadhouse - his favorite restaurant. So, we headed out for a nice dinner. Kaitlyn loves that place too because you can eat peanuts and throw the shells on the floor. And I do mean THROW. She was a little bit out of control that night. Speaking of James, he has a new blog - you should check it out and drop a comment if you have time. The site is http://blogs.scripps.com/abi/mayo/ Or you can click on his name on my list of links to the right.
Saturday morning I took Kaitlyn and Cora to McDonalds for breakfast and then we hit a couple of garage sales. I think I'm going to start doing this more on Saturdays - the garage sale part. James mowed 3 yards on Saturday, so he was pretty worn out! Saturday night we enjoyed dinner at Mr. Gattis. They seriously have the best pizza ever and I always enjoy a good game of Dance Dance Revolution!
Sunday - Happy Mothers Day! My favorite part of the day was when Kaitlyn literally ran into our bedroom that morning more excited than she was on her own birthday. She was just was smiling and laughing and screaming Happy Mothers Day over and over! Such a sweet girl. James (and Kat and Lindsay) did a great job of picking out my present! It's a silver link bracelet with a circle charm that has Kaitlyn's name on one side and Cora's name on the other. I love it! Kaitlyn was so excited to give it to me, so I got it on Saturday! And my other most favorite thing about the day is when Cora rolled over for the first time!! She rolled from her back to tummy! We were all so excited, I think it scared her a little bit!
Sunday we went out to lunch and came home where James graciously helped me clean up the house. It's amazing how much faster you can get things done when both girls are taking a nap and you have an extra set of hands! My parents drove through town that afternoon on their way back to Lubbock. It was good to be able to see them and spend some time with my mom - even if it was just a couple of hours. She's pretty much my favorite person on earth. That night we went over to some friends house for a cookout and the best ice cream cake ever. It was a really good day!
Monday I could tell that Cora just wasn't quite herself. Tuesday she refused to eat anything and cried most of the day. So last night we gave in and took her to an express care place. She has a double ear infection! Poor girl. This morning she was still extra fussy and we had to pretty much force her to eat something. Hopefully I'll see a change when she wakes up from her nap. I hate it when either of my girls are sick.
Poor baby...
This is what happens when we let Kaitlyn dress herself: Is it bad that we let her wear this to church last Wednesday night?

I love Kaitlyn's outfit!
I'm sorry Cora is sick, that's the worst when it's ears!
Yay for Jaime's new blog!
When are we getting together? Wanna watch the Grey's finale tomorrow? Call me! love you!
Gatti's is the bomb!!
Cora looks so much like Kaitlyn in that picture!
I love that you let Kaitlyn dress herself! Some battles are not worth fighting! I am sure Riley will have a few similar church outfits in her future! Poor Cora! No fun!
Hey chica- oh, how I miss TX Roadhouse rolls....yum! It sounds like you had an awesome Mother's Day- you deserve it! I am a big fan of Kaitlyn's outfit....way to let her be creative in her fashion sense. She may become a fashion designer in NYC, so you never know....have a great weekend!
leslie--that picture is amazing!
I am afraid that I shouldn't have a girl because she wouldn't be as fun and sassy as Kaitlyn is and I would be disappointed!
