Chuck E Cheese

So, I have never been to Chuck E Cheese before and neither has Logan.  I actually never even thought about  taking Logan there, but a friend invited us and I thought why not! So we went... Monday morning right when it opens is AWESOME!!! 


The kids rode all the little rides... for FREE 
There were tokens laying around and yes, I felt silly but I picked them up and used them! No worries we asked the manager about it and he told us to have at it.  Another tip is daily they have to test the games to make sure they work and they leave the tickets there.  So of course we showed the kids how to get the tickets and they racked up close to 1000 tickets. 


Logan of course LOVED driving the cars.. Vrooom Vroom 








This was TOO CUTE!!!! 



I think it was a pretty successful morning!! 

We had LOTS of fun and I have to say I looked like a kid in a candy store haha!! 
We may have to try it again sometime!! 

Much love,

Snow Day 2011

Well folks,  you have probably figured it out by now that I'm trying to catch up on my blogging.  I have been a HUGE slacker with taking pictures.  Actually let me restate that, I have been taking LOTS of pictures with my new phone and forgetting to take them with the camera so I need to remember to take the camera more. 

Thank goodness the snow happened after we were better, we actually got to layer up and go out and play in it! 


You may be asking what did she put on him... Well, living in Texas I didn't really prepare for a snow day, clothes wise for Logan.  Also, because he grows so fast I haven't purchased anything "just in case" either being afraid by the time he would use it he couldn't.  So we layered in pajamas, 3 pairs of socks, sweats, our Halloween costume... HA HA, yes he is a Razorback snow bunny! Plus, gloves, jacket & hat. Let me tell you he was not going to get sick from going outside or being cold! 


He LOVED the snow though! 


Not sure he knew exactly what to think though! 











Later on in the day we decided to go outside again, trying our fancy new rainboots, Thanks Miss. Tara!! We made our very first snow man... he even had coals for eyes! :) 






Logan decided he would rather be fishing though... 


Frosty... 


No worries I only took his gloves off for a second.  Then we went inside, snuggled up and took a nap! :) Heavenly snow day! 

So glad the snow and cold is gone... it was 60 degrees yesterday. JD & I were in T-shirts... what's up with that Texas?!?! 

Much love, 
The Weathers! 

Bathtime Balloon Fun!


I'm telling you those balloons were the best idea all week.... 



Splashing the balloons away... 


Sly smile.... 



I know just a little bit of hiney in this picture... so folks... too cute though! 




I was cringing the whole time I was trying to take this picture... 
He never did pop one... at least not yet.


Yep... cringe again! 

We L.O.V.E our bubble baths though and we took our fair share of those this week too during the cold weather! Playing in water with toys... ALWAYS a great option!! :) Plus result = clean kiddo! I'm for it! 

Much love, 
The Weathers

Lo-man 50's style & Sick Days... :(

This past week I decided to put Logan in his jean jacket that he has rarely worn, due to someone thinking it looks very 50's and metro. I thought it was adorable! :) 




This past week we also had our far share of staying inside.  Poor little man was sick, sick so staying home and resting was our Dr. orders! For Mom though it was a wee bit of a rough week especially with cold weather (so no going outside to get the stink blown off us ;)) and Daddy gone all week! We missed him terribly and although we had LOTS of snuggle Mommy & me time and TV time (call me a bad mother, but I will stand by that it was a necessity at the time :) ) we were excited for being 100% healthy by Thursday and Daddy coming home Friday night!
To tell you how bored we were by Thursday.... For anyone who knows me pretty well, balloons are my least favorite thing in this world.  I have a HUGE fear of balloons, so from the pictures below you can tell how desperate I was for daily activities around the house. 


Logan with his water balloon Mom let him carry around the house. 




Oh yes, I blew up 20.... 20.. balloons that day for entertainment, was a cringing every time I heard him touch one, YES... but it was SO worth the amount of fun they brought! I even think I'm over my fear just a little bit. 


Poor bub, I got him to smile even though he wasn't feeling good! I know the smile is a little forced, but I just love him so! 

I also would like to thank ALL of my SWEET friends who looked after us this last week! I don't think I would have made it through the week without your encouragement, crafts, phone calls, texts, cookies, dinners, and everything else ya'll provided for Logan & I. During times like these it is difficult not having family close by, but I was reminded of how BLESSED and THANKFUL we are for the most LOVING friends on earth!  I know how thankful JD was and the comfort he found in knowing that we were being taken care of when he wasn't able to be here!  So, thank you wonderful friends for your kindness and encouragement!  We love you all and pray blessings upon your family for your sweet hearts! 

Much love,
