T-minus 1 day until my week of kid-less freedom! I am super-duper excited about this weekend! I am going to have the whole weekend with my mom in Berea, KY. It is a little artist colony town with lots of artisan shops. I am mostly excited to have a few days without being responsible for anyone by myself. This will be my first night away from Evan and my third away from Colin (the first 2 were when I was at the hospital having Evan). I can't wait!

The last couple of weeks have been good for the most part. Colin has been doing great in speech class. He got a new letter to work on, "drumming D". He is doing really good on that one already! I also got to go to a Mom's club meeting at church this week. It was REALLY nice. I am ready to make some more friends here, and that was a great start.

We had a nice Easter weekend. Jedd was off good Friday, and we spend most of Friday and Saturday getting ready for company on Sunday. Jedd sang at Good Friday mass, so I had the boys by myself. Let me just tell you, 7pm is NOT a good time for the boys to have to sit through mass! Evan wanted nothing more than to run (not a good thing at a very somber mass). Not to mention that 8 is their bedtime, so they were both very tired. I ended up leaving at 7:45 and they hadn't even taken up the collection yet. Jedd didn't get home until after 9... Easter mass was much better, though they did put me through a workout, at least I didn't have to leave!!!!

The Barder's came over for Easter lunch. That was so great. It was nice to have company when we were all missing being with our families.

This week has been very cyclical. Bad day, then good day, then bad day... We are on track to have a good day today! I think the kids and I are all just tired of being inside this week. It has been chilly and wet so far. We are off to the park this morning with Kim and Burke, and then speech, so HOPEFULLY it will be a good day. Wish me luck! :-)
