Good Friends, Good Times

This week, well, the end of the week, has been tough on me. The pregnancy/nausea seems to be getting a little, and I mean a little, better daily. So, I think I 'm getting used to it now, but my Love, Kyle, has been out-of-town for a baseball tournament since Thursday, and we really only had Wednesday evening to spend with him b/c Monday was open house, Tuesday was baseball, etc... I really don't want to complain, or sound like a baby-which I know I have been lately, but things just are NOT the same when he's gone. Bryce asks about Daddy constantly, and we both miss him.

So, that brings us to today. B and I thought it would be fun to meet up with Karen and Jackson, and oh, am I glad we did-sooooo much fun! We had a playdate at the Frisco mall. B and I got there a little early and got some lunch. Sweet Jackson was napping, so I thought, yes...we can maybe do a little shopping before they get here, which we did!! Before the shopping started, B had to get a "Flushy" aka Slushy from sonic with his lunch. See pic below...he LOVES Flushies!!

Mom, may I please have another flushy???

I was taking pics of him (of course), and then he said "mommy, I want to take a picture". So, I thought, what the heck-I'll make sure he doesn't drop it, his hands are clean, etc...or Kyle would kill me! So, here is a picture Bryce took of me..see below! I think he may have a future in photography like his Uncle Shaun...what do you think?

After we were done eating, I dragged B into my favorite store, White/House/Black/Market. Of course, they have their new spring line out and it is adorable!! I wish I could wear the new stuff, but I'll have to wait until next year..side note, by this time next year the "new stuff" will be at the outlet mall in san marcos, so if you're ever in San Marcos, seriously check it out-pants that used to be $88 down to $10!!

Anyways, Bryce managed to fall off the seat in the dressing room and hit his back which left a bruise, and he literally ran into the front window of the store at full-speed as I was checking out. Luckily, there were few customers in there and the ladies working there were cracking up. I think his cookie he had at lunch kicked in at that moment :)

Then, Karen and Jackson arrived and the FUN began! Jackson was hungry, so he ate his "hot dog on a stick" as he calls it...isn't he so cute!

Then we headed to the merry-go-round. The boys had a blast. Karen and I were feeling a little dizzy and nauseous, especially me, after the ride! Then, we went to the play area and let the boys run wild and get all their energy out.

Jackson, Karen, and Bryce on the merry-go-round!

"Thanks, mom, for the fun merry-go-round ride!"


Jackson hanging out in the play area house-he loves to chill in there..for a second!


B was laughing at some other kids...guess it was funny to him?!

Before we left, the boys hugged and we got them pretzels for the road! Do you think B was tired??? He didn't even finish his pretzel...and if you know B, he does NOT throw away food!

Thanks, Karen and Jackson, for a fun play-date! We love you all so much!!
