What a pain

With my back hurting I haven't been able to lift much, or do much for that matter. Laundry piled up, the house got VERY dirty, and when I go shopping the bags sit in the garage for me to bring in one at a time or for Chris to take care of when he gets home. I hate that I can't do all I want/need to in a day. I'm only 30 for goodness sake. Chris and I have a big weekend ahead of us painting the guest room and rearranging everything so we can separate the boys again. It's such a big project and I'm not sure how much help I will be to Chris. The physical therapy is helping and I'm waking up without pain now which is a big improvement. I am also hoping to get in to a chiropractor to see if that can help some too. I just hate feeling old at 30.

Bus Stop

This is Zach every morning. With Megan in her driveway. Talking about whatever first graders talk about. He doesn't want a kiss from me anymore, too old for that I suppose. He looks so old. I can't believe how fast he is growing up, makes me want to stop time.

allergy shots

Every Wednesday we head over to West Chester to get allergy shots for Zach. It never fails that Aiden decides to take a nap on Wednesdays and I have to wake him up which leads to a crabby boy for the evening. Ugg.  Anyway, Zach has about 6 more months of these shots, possibly less if I double up for the summer but it's an hour round trip and the whole process takes less than 15 minutes and there is the whole gas price thing. 

bike

This is one of Aiden's favorite activities during therapy, it's called a "hand bike." He's a crazy driver but he is learning.

paparazzi

I think when my boys start to do this I'm taking too many pictures :)

Our neighbors are having a high school graduation party for their daughter today so we get to have our two favorite neighbor dogs over for the afternoon. Meet Barney and Max. Max is the reason we decided to get a dog of our own. He is a sweetie and Izzy's best friend :)

May 24th

Our pool opened today and even though it was only 70 degrees and the pool was probably about 57 degrees or so, the boys really wanted to go. This was my favorite picture, Zach had just done a cannonball into the pool and discovered just how cold it really was :)

May 23rd

We had our garage sale today. We only made about $180 and we weren't able to sell our couch or our bookcase (our 2 big items) but we are going to Craig's list them and hopefully get some takers.

Today was nice enough (finally) to have playgroup at the park. Aiden had fun playing with some friends and having a picnic lunch there.

May 21st

Aiden's last day of preschool was today. It wasn't as sad for us as it was for some of the other parents because Aiden will be going back next year and be with the same teachers. I'm so glad that he had such a wonderful place to go 3 days a week and he has been asking if he can go to summer school :) He has come a long way in just 9 months, I can't wait to see what next year brings.
