Catching Up

Hey all! Sorry I've been a little MIA. I have not been feeling very good recently. I feel like I get sore throats all the time which makes me think Campbell must have sore throats a lot too. I feel okay but sleep terribly and just feel a little worn down. Ugh! I'm over it. I plan on heavily medicating myself with some serious over the counter PM medicine so I can get some good rest tonight.
We spent our weekend in Little Rock visiting my family. We didn't have anything going on and figured we may as well go down there for a change of scenery. We visited the new outlet mall (I was impressed!) and did some of our other typical LR shopping (toggery, jcrew, apple store, anthro) and the rest of the time we just hung out at my parents.

My Mom and Dad got a new play kitchen for Campbell and Avery to play with and it is the most adorable thing I have ever seen. Campbell spent the entire weekend playing with it. He would put that little oven mitt on and take cookies in and out of the oven. It cracked me up. That's a felt pizza on top of the refrigerator that I had to put out of arms reach because it made such a mess. I still can't handle messes, 19 months later. I try to tell myself to let it go and embrace the mess but no can do.

We got home late Sunday night and as I was laying in bed watching the news, the weatherman warned of a possible freeze that night. I've been keeping my eyes and ears open for a freeze warning so I could be sure to cut my hydrangeas before the frost killed them. I hopped out of bed at 10:30 pm, grabbed a flashlight and went out to my hydrangeas. I cut about 2 dozen and they are so beautiful. Thankfully we didn't get a freeze, and there are some hydrangeas that are close to blooming so hopefully it will be another week or so before we get one and I can gather a few more gorgeous flowers before it's over.
