July has been FUN!
Drew has finally had his shots so we are able to get out and about more! We decided to spend Saturday taking the boys shopping and to dinner at Jackson's fav restaurant...Cracker Barrel! Poor Drew didn't have a great day but thankfully he slept for 20min to allow Mommy to eat dinner.
I did learn a few things....
1.a knee length dress is not for a busy Mommy with 2 boys under 2! I was constantly holding my dress while i was having to bend over to pick up J, pick up something J dropped, check on D, etc.
2. The double stroller is a MUST if i have both boys with me! The plan was J would walk with Daddy (this is normally his pick!) BUT J cried because he wanted in the stroller and D cried because he wanted out of the stroller!
Sunday was a WONDERFUL day!
Sweet Drew was SO sweet during church! This was the 1st service that he was wide awake. He gazed, smiled, and talked to his daddy while I held him! I'm thankful that he has been blessed with a great earthly Father and I pray that he has just as much amazement and love for his heavenly Father!
Church was followed by lunch at home and a stroller ride at Lincoln Parish Park! Both boys loved it, the park was gorgeous(as always) Jackson got to see baby deer, squirrels playing, chat with the ducks, and the weather was perfect!!
NOT a fun weekend!
Mommy is sick w a cold, D is congested and in need of lots of cuddle time, J is congested, snotty, potty training, and teething (cutting 2 molars) and Daddy is trying to study for the GRE tomorrow! Anyone want to come hang out at the Cantrell house?! :)
BUT
SO proud of my sweet hubby for rocking the GRE! Watch out LA Tech! He is grad school bound!!!!
Drew-"My Sweet boy is 3 months old today!!! What? Where does the time go?! It seems like just yesterday I found out I was pregnant with you..I was SCARED to death not knowing if I could physically carry you full term and wondering how in the world I would care for and love 2 babies...God knew what I needed...He had a plan...and now I get to rock the sweetest 15lb bundle of JOY! Jer. 29:11 Thank youMarty Cantrell for always having Faith that God had a plan for us!"
The last week of July was BUSY but lots of fun! We spent a a day playing in the pool with the boys and Paw! Then loaded the car for our 1st travel adventure! 2 weeks of traveling with 2 under 2!
1st stop was Natchitoches, LA for lunch at Lasyone's Meat Pie Kitchen and a little stroll downtown!
Then it was on to Cypress Bend Resort where Marty had a work conference. The boys and I hung out in the hotel and went for strolls every afternoon! The boys traveled great! :) Next trip...Family vacation at the beach!
