An yucky excuse to update :(
Currently, its 4 something in the morning and I'm awake with an all of a sudden stomach bug that is hitting pretty hard. I took Carter to the dr for a rash on his feet that developed on Sunday and turns out he has hand, foot and mouth but is doing find with it. I actually told Aaron I thought thats what it was...I'll add Doctor to my resume now! :) We were leaving Party City after the dr with my mom, and I got sick in the parking lot. I just thought it was because I hadn't eaten in a while. Then I got sick while at dinner and we had to get our food to go. Since then, I haven't been able to keep anything down. Therefore, I would say its not pregnancy related. I slept from about 10-1am...but its been off and on since then. So I decided I would get up and do something productive that doesn't require much energy. I am a little more comfortable typing in the recliner. My mom offered to come help with Carter tomorrow, and I am going to plan on taking her up on that offer. I already called Kelly (the girl I help home school) and told her not to come too. Just looking to feel better soon. This bug is pretty rough while 32 weeks pregnant. :(

Easter Egg Hunt in Charlotte
Shooting the eggs
Carter was scared of the Easter Bunny. He said Bye Bunny when he got close or No bunny.
Today, we went to the Easter Egg Hunt at Aaron's parent's church in Charlotte. He was more interested in playing on the playground instead.
Good Friday
Yesterday, we headed to Charlotte for Easter. Carter is obsessed with playing outside...
6th year in a row...
Prom!
With Christina... our only teen from youth group at prom this year
One of my favorite teacher friends! Jeffie!
Ya know, as a high school student, I didn't look forward to the prom nor did I "enjoy" it. It was ok. But I must say that I have managed to enjoy it for the last 6 years, as a teacher/teacher's wife. On April 1st, we attended our 6th CHS Prom! Aaron is a junior homeroom advisor so we had to stay the whole time (but we got to take home pretty flowers at the end of the night!) :P His duty was to monitor the parking lot/front lobby so I didn't hang out with him the whole time as I needed to sit occasionally! This year, the students that were freshmen during my last year of teaching are now juniors, so it was fun to see some of them again. Soon, I'll know no one when I go to the prom--that's kinda sad. Luckily, I enjoy people watching and free food, so prom is just the place for me! :P

Pink...
Cameron's room is painted and pink! :) My parents helped paint the room on Friday night/all day Saturday.
Here is a before picture. Not sure why I didn't take a picture of the guest room when the bed and other furniture were still in there. This is our extra futon mattress that we are currently selling on Craigslist. Let me know if you are in need! :P
This is the now...the crib is currently the hold all for randomness. The dresser is tipped over because it was injured today during the last 20 minutes of painting. My handy dad is all over the repairs! :P Prior to the injury, my mom had just commented about the length of time we had been using that dresser...for the last 9 years! :) (and 20 minutes later the leg breaks!) The other furniture will be moved in tomorrow...I still haven't figure out how I want the room arranged. Cameron's room is smaller than Carter's so it looks like it will be a tight fit to move all his old furniture to this room.
And this is a picture of Cameron's bedding. We choose a light pink to paint the room since there's lots of pink in the bedding!!! :)

I'm in love with Spring! :)
This week has really flown by! We've enjoyed a picnic and playtime at the park as well as warm playtime outside. Since Friday when Andrew came over and rode Carter's motorcycle (that he got for Christmas and hasn't wanted to ride), Carter insists on riding that motorcycle daily. Glad Andrew helped spark his interest. Carter enjoys passing the ball to me in the cul-de-sac, then I shoot and he chases the rebound. We do this over and over again. A couple times he's says "Carter's turn" and expects me to pick him up so he can shoot. The only bad part about playing outside is when its time to come in. Today, we came in at lunchtime and he was not happy. I asked him what he wanted for lunch, he took out the ketchup and said chicken. Then he was in a better mood. Afterwards, he played in the bathtub for a while! Another one of his favorite things!
Nap update...the past two days Carter has fallen asleep on his own in his head. Though I have had to read books and then he requests that I lay down. I lay down for a few minutes and ask if he wants some milk and give him a little in his cup and leave. He stays put and goes to sleep.
Carter is such a big helper. Last night, he stacked all the clean cups from the dishwasher for Aaron to put him. His job is to load the silverware! :)
We are planning to paint Cameron's room this weekend! :) Painting the baby's room makes things seem more real! 80 more days?!?!
Carter playing outside after Church on Sunday
Wearing a princess pull-up (Huggies sent a sample with a boy and a girl pull up!) He pooped in this one so he didn't wear it long! :P

Playtime!
It's nap time and I'm trying to procrastinate...
so here I am! :)
Last night, Carter had a play date with Andrew (who is 6 months older)and his mommmy while Aaron and Andrew's daddy went to a men's event at church. The weather is beautiful here so we enjoyed playing outside after dinner till almost 8pm! The boys insisted on playing in the cul-de-sac where Carter scrapped his knees and forehead. Boys will be boys. He got up after falling without crying and just asked me to kiss his knees. :) He's tough.
This morning, all three of us ventured off to our indoor pool where Aaron gives swim lessons while its cold outside. He's not teaching this session but is scheduled to sub next week. One of the class is for babies 6 months-2 or 3. Since he's never taught the class before, the teacher invited us to come participate. Turned out someone else needed a sub this morning too, so Carter and I participated in the class and then played while Aaron taught some other lessons. (Therefore we got no pictures on this trip) Carter's class was just about getting the kids used to the water. Carter is a fish and loves the water so he's a bit advanced for the class.
