Mother's Day weekend

We had a loooong weekend. It was semi-busy. Friday morning my older sister April and my mom took the kids to get their pictures made so we could order a canvas for mom for Mother's Day. THAT was interesting. Of course my kid didn't want to participate and cried like a baby. I thought the picture turned out great even if my kids face was red and you MAY or MAY NOT be able to see tears on both of his cheeks in the picture. Just sayin'.
Check it out...
Sweet, sweet babies!
Are we blessed OR are we blessed???
:)

After pictures we had a nice picnik outside of Chick-fil-a for lunch. The kids seemed to enjoy this better than taking pictures! :)



After the picnik we had a little time to kill before an appointment so we stopped by a local park, just me and the boys. Tuff played while I fed Gunner. After Gunner got done eating we walked around the park a little. Tuff posed for a picture.


And after the park we headed back to the DR to see our closest (it seems lately) friend, Dr. C. Gunner STILL has double ear infection. We're going on 4 weeks and 3 antibiotics. The child is miserable ya'll. I asked what we were going to do if this antibiotic didn't work and he replied "We'll have to start talking tubes." Obviously I don't want him to have to go through that, or any surgery, but if it's going to make my baby feel better, I'll do whatever it takes.


Saturday morning the boys spent time with daddy while me and mom went to a yard sale a friend of mine was having. I got Gunner some overhauls and a pair of crocs for when he's older. The real crocs for $.50, we'll take it! We love some crocs around our household. Tuff would wear them to church if I'd let him. After our yard sale extravaganza, I took a 3 hour nap. Then we got ready to go to dinner in celebration of my mother for Mother's Day! We went to Miller's Grocery and enjoyed some yummy dinner. Took a few pictures...



Gunner sported his new .50 overhauls



Sunday morning I woke up to some pretty flowers from my boys.

And some cards.

We had a very low key/crazy Mother's Day! We didn't go to church like we usually do. It was so nasty outside (raining) and it was supposed to do it all day so I didn't want to get the boys out in that. Around lunch time we went to Jordan's grandmother's for lunch with his family. Gunner was tired and irritable so we didn't get to stay long. We came home for a nap. Then spent the rest of the day trying to relax. Gunner hasn't been feeling his best because of his ears and he had a pretty off day yesterday. Tuff also had an off day. Lots of hitting/throwing things/not listening. Needless to say, I was exhausted last night. Thankfully we all got a good night of sleep...

Happy Monday, friends!!!

  1. Hope they figure out something for Gunner Bear's ears soon!!! Things will be much smoother when he has some kind of relief!

  2. Sounds like tubes would help him! I was going to say that in one of your other post but I wasn't sure how old they had to be before they would put tubes in their ears! Happy Mother's Day Ashley!

  3. Poor Gunner and his ears. It reminds me so much of Easton when he was little. Tubes helped him so much though. They didn't completely eliminate ear infections, but they definitely decreased.

    I wish we could've seen y'all on our trip home this weekend, but it was super fast! We'll be coming back for Easton's birthday in 2 weeks. Did y'all get your invitation?
