Where have you been?

So I'm reminded daily (by some people) that I haven't updated my blog in a while, 14 days to be exact.  I'd like to say that I've been unbelievably busy, but that would be a lie.  The truth is that I have just been in a huge blogging slump.  So let's recap the past 12 days. . .

Matt and I attended Todd and Emily's wedding, July 10th.  Todd and I work together and I have to say that he was probably one of the happiest grooms I've ever met!  Not once did I hear him complain about any of the wedding responsibilities he had to do.  Almost everyone from work was able to attend the wedding and we had a wonderful time.  Everything was gorgeous and the ceremony was filled with love!  Of course I got pictures of everyone expect the bride and groom, oops.

Yaya watched Connor for the night while we went to the wedding and out for drinks afterwards.  He had an absolute blast while he was there, like always.  He ate like a pig and I'm sure she wonders if I ever feed him, but I definitely can't cook like Yaya.  Garner was also at Yaya's for the night and Connor loves to play with her.  I asked Garner if she wanted a little brother like Connor and her response was "I just want him"!  How sweet is that?!

On Sunday, we went to Gigi's and Big Daddy's house so Connor could play one last time before my mom had her surgery.  Big Daddy was working on the deck and Connor wanted to get down and dirty so he put on his gloves to lend a hand.  He has so many toys and he's obsessed with these gloves!

I get so nervous he is going to get a splinter; I guess that's just part of having a boy!

The gloves had to be on to do everything. . .

Can you see the frustration?

This past week, Connor was sick and couldn't go to daycare.  Thankfully Aunt Pat was available to watch him!  He had a fever and rash so he was out of school for a day.  The rash was from me (dumb mommy) switching his laundry detergent and body wash, all in the same week.  The fever was from some bug his friends gave him at school (gotta love daycare).

Then this past weekend, I spent most of my time at the hospital.  I'm happy to say that I feel like a thousand pounds has been lifted off my shoulders.  My mom's surgery was successful and she is now resting at home.  She's in some pain, which is to be expected, but the surgeons couldn't have been happier with the procedure.  While I was with my mom, Matt had the opportunity to see what it would be like to be a single dad...I think the reality of that scared him!

Connor got this balloon from my mom's 'good luck' party
and he has carried that thing around everywhere!

So I guess I could say, I was a little busy...wedding, sick child, and mom's surgery all in 14 days!
