March Madness Baby!

Yes, I have a bracket and so far round 1 isn't treating me too badly. We have a pool at work every year and this year 1st place is $300 and 2nd is $150 so any extra cash works for me :) We didn't do one last year but the year before I was in 2nd place until Michigan State University went to the Final Four and knocked me down to 4th place. Another reason to NOT be a Spartan fan!

We're slowly starting to feel better. Freddy and I are now just coughing to get the flem out (sorry for that graphic picture). Marshall hasn't had a fever in 2 days but he is still coughing. If he is still coughing tomorrow I'll probably call the doctor's office to see if there is anything else we can do for him since he wakes himself up every time he starts coughing.

Anyway, today was an awesome 75 degrees! So Marshall and I enjoye a nice walk home from daycare and sat on the front porch of our building for a bit and watched people go by. It is supposed to be in the 50s this weekend so I'm hoping we can enjoy the weather in between our errands.

I promise to have updated pictues of Marshall up this weekend :)

Happy weekend!

Crazy Week!

Holy cow I can't believe how fast the past week flew by! It has been that long since I've even been online as well. Work has been crazy busy. My 2nd day back from leave and my boss gives me a project that has to be completed by the end of March to save the company over 1 million dollars. No pressure!!! So I've been working extra hours after Marshall goes to bed to get stuff done. On top of that I've been sick the last few days with sinus congestion. I've always had bad sinuses and seasonal allergies so when the weather bounces back and forth I usually get blessed with a lovely sinus infection. So not only am I working a gazillion hours, I'm also sick and so tired.

I had big plans this weekend too. Freddy has been gone for reserve duty since Thursday and doesn't get back until tomorrow. Since the weather was going to be in the mid-50's I was going to go out with Marshall to have some quality mommy/son time. But I'm just too tired to feel safe out with him alone let alone driving the car. I'm hesitant to take any nyquil because it will put me in a coma and I won't be able to hear the baby cry. Freddy has promised that I can take some nyquil tomorrow night and he'll be on baby duty so I can get some sleep.

I haven't even had any time to get recent pictures of Marshall off my camera!

Oh... and don't forget to turn your clocks ahead tomorrow :)

Spring is in the Air!

I can't believe it is already 62 degrees outside! We have windows open with cats enjoying the nice breeze. As soon as Marshall is up from his nap we may take a walk outside to enjoy the nice weather!

Hope it is warming up where you're at today in preparation for Sprin!
