Lazy Day

This has been a pretty awesome weekend. I stayed home with Holly on Friday because she wasn't feeling well, took her to the doctor and to get Valentine's Day pictures made. (Which she did an AWESOME job) Friday night Holly went to bed really early, so my mom, Janet, and I watched Crazy, Stupid, Love. It was SO good! Saturday I didn't get up until 9! My hubby got up with Holly, cooked her breakfast and let me sleep in! :) Then I dropped Holly off to play with her counsins, Kaybrina and Landon. I went to lunch at Market Place with my friend, Stephanie. Then, we went back to her house to watch movies! We watched I Don't Know How She Does It, and (go figure) Crazy, Stupid, Love. I went to Barnes and Noble and got The Pioneer Woman cookbook then picked up Holly, along with Kaybrina and Landon. Their parents went out to dinner while I kept them. I also baked some chocolate marshmallow cupcakes!

Holly, Kaybrina, and Landon created a fort in the hallway. They were SO quiet...I actually watched a movie and didn't even know they were here!

 She loved getting her pictures taken...being sick and all!

Today was an extremely LAZY DAY. I literally got up, my mom cooked breakfast, I ate, she went to town, and I laid in the recliner all day and watch TV. I got up to feed Holly and the hubs even put her down for a nap! (I'm spoiled, I know!) Well...so I thought a nap. I found evidence that there wasn't much sleeping going on....




Now that I've gotten to relax this weekend, it's time to get prepared for my work/school week. I have class on Tuesday (Education Law & Ethics) and Thursday (Assessments in Early Childhood Education). But, in all honesty, I really enjoy my classes. I get to learn a lot about my own child! In less than 1 year I will be doing my student teaching, and less than 17 months I will be graduating!

Have a GREAT week!

It's a new year!

It's only January 4th and I've ALREADY started school again; however, I did find out yesterday that I got a scholarship from Harding for having a high GPA!

I just started my first class at Harding, and I think I'm really going to like it. The set up of their classes is really nice because I only take 2 classes at a time, and I get a month break from Feb 9-March 15! Which is when we will be moving!

We're not sure where yet, but we'll be moving sometime in Feb/March. I think we have decided to move to Bentonville to be closer to work/school. It will save gas and when Holly starts school, she'll get to go with her cousin Maddie. They're really close and play SO well together. Their birthdays are only 15 days apart. Maddie's birthday is April 3, and Holly's is April 18! This is them at Christmas...
I know it's only January, but I've already started looking at houses to rent in Destin in August! Gotta have something to look forward to, right?? I've actually been considering taking Holly to Disney World, but Will is totally against it because it's so expensive. We went there on our honeymoon and it wasn't very much fun. Here's why:
1. We went the first week in June
2. It was WAY HOT
3. There were a TON of people there
4. They gave us a room with 2 beds...ummm hello?? I guess they didn't get the "honeymoon" memo.

Anyways, now my husband belives that Disney will always be horrible and doesn't want to go. - That's okay...I'm happy with the beach...again. :)
The good thing about the beach is that you can relax, take naps, swim in your private pool, and pretty much do as much or as little as you'd like.

Well, 2011 has come and gone and I can say that I'm pretty happy it's over. It wasn't bad...but it wasn't easy!
