We have had some amazing weather lately and it has made life so nice. Both boys would stay outside all day if they could so when the weather is nice, that's where you'll find us.
Thursday we had Matthews 1 year pictures taken by our neighbor Kelli who is a professional photographer. You should check out her website, http://www.fitzfoto.com. She took over 200 pictures, then narrowed it down to 80 and let me choose from there which ones I wanted her to edit. SO I'll post some of our favorites when they are edited.
Saturday morning I had to take Matthew to get his blood drawn for a lead test. It's something the pediatrician has us do after the 1 year check up since we live in an older home. Needless to say he was not happy about it. It took me and two other nurses to get the sample. It's so funny how different each child is. When I took Andrew in he sat there acting like he was watching a movie. He didn't even flinch. Anyway we already got the results back and his levels are normal.
Then we literally spent the entire weekend outside. Drew and I got so much done in the yard, about 20 bags of leaves and the boys played and played. Saturday we decided to go to 5 o'clock mass with the time change Sunday morning. Drew and I are the only people in the world that look forward to this time change because it's the one day of the year that the boys sleep until 7! Thankfully it was a pretty uneventful weekend topped off with a McLaughlin favorite, Sunday dinner at Grandma and Poppa's.
Now the winter coats, hats, and mittens are back out for the nice cold front that moved through last night. It was fun while it lasted!
