What a weekend!

Friday night - I stayed home with the babies while Bryan went the grocery store. Since we have had kids, our grocery store trips can not be put off an extra week...totally different.

Saturday morning- Bryan stayed home with the babies while I went to school to test 4th and 5th graders to qualify for our advanced math program.

Saturday afternoon - I made a fresh jar of homeade salsa...yum!

Saturday evening - We went to the McCowns' house. Maggie and Mollie Grace are getting so big! We just love spending time with our dear friends, Mark and Meredith. Meredith always requests that I bring salsa when we eat supper at their house. And of course, I love to cook for people so I always whip up a bowl of fresh salsa for her! Maybe I'll share that recipe later this week.

Sunday morning - Sunday school and Big church. It feels so good to be back in our routine. The boys have done great in the nursery. Well, except for Jordan's blowout diaper this week. He somehow messed up his cute plaid overalls, but not the polo style onesie he was wearing underneath it. So, when we picked him up from the nursery, his overalls were in a little plastic bag and he was almost naked. :) Fun.


Sunday lunch - We were so thrilled to go out to lunch with Heath, Janelle, Ella, Curt, Amanda, Jackson, and Annabeth. Curt and Amanda were in town for the weekend and it was so much fun to visit. Annabeth is only 4 days older than Jordan and Nathan...so cute! Little Jackson is talking so much and asking all kinds of adorable questions...love it!


Sunday afternoon - Bryan and I took the boys over to his parents' house for a few hours. Jan and I fed the boys. After that, PaPa was holding Jordan and Gram was holding Nathan which meant it was the perfect time for me to take a little nap! I got a good 45 minute shut-eye on Paul and Jan's couch. It was heaven!


Sunday night - Jordan started to develop a cough and it just kept getting worse.


Monday afternoon - I took him to the doctor and his nasal passages are swollen, he is congested, his eye is gooky, and his skin is really dry. Dr. Scott said, "This kid definitely has allergies." Of course he does! Bryan and I both suffer from stupid allergies. Now sweet little Jordan is on Benadryl until his symptoms improve. Then, Dr. Scott proceeded to ask me what kind of lotion I have been using on Jordan's skin. And I told him that I use pink or purple baby lotion...duh...isn't that what all babies use. And, it smells so great! Dr.Scott's response, "That stuff is crap. It's like scented water." Hah! Who knew!? So, little Jordan gets old school Curel from now on. But, maybe a little pink lotion on top?! I just love that pink lotion baby smell. Our pediatrician (Dr. Scott) cracks me up. He really tells it like it is.


Now that I have told you every detail from our weekend, as if you wanted to hear every detail, here are some pictures of our Sunday lunch with the Jones and Hartsfield famlies!
