Nice Day

For the past week, Carson and I have been battling a cold, cough, and congestion. Fortunatley, we are almost over it and tried to enjoy some time out. Since Cory was on call this weekend, Carson and I decided to go out and hit some good sales yesterday.

It has started to get cool (in the 70's) here in NC, therefore has prompted me to see what Carson has for fall/winter clothes. I am usually pretty good about hitting the clearance racks the year before but still needed to get some things. Carson lives in long sleeve shirts and "nike" pants the majority of the winter as he is so hot blooded, he sweats in everything else. However, I have a really hard tim finding pants for him cause he is so skinny in his waist and so tall. Thank goodness for Kohls and Penny's cause I found 18 and 24 months pants that are long enough for him and fit him perfectly in the waist. So - i bought pants in every color...black, navy, grey, khaki, and dark brown. We then got some dressier clothes for church and found some killer deals on shoes. By the time we got home in the afternoon, I really felt like we had accomplished a lot and thankful that Carson was done for fall and winter clothes.
By the time we got home Carson was knocked out and ready for a long nap. Cory and I then continued working on Braxtynn's room. We are almost done with it and can't wait to post the pictures when all complete. We have a few picture frames to hang and should get the last piece of bedding this week and then we will be all ready for her.
Another adventure I tackled yesterday was cutting Carson's hair. My sister had talked me into buying clippers and doing it myself as I always gripped after I paid $24 to get a 2 year olds haircut. As I figured, Carson wigged out but I was able to get the job done and it looks OK. It's a little shorter than I wanted but his hair grows really fast.
Now, it is Sunday afternoon and we are sitting outside enjoying the beautfiul weather. Carson is entertaining us by slidding down the slide and throwing ice from Cory's drink. I hope to go in shortly and get my house cleaned and some laundry done.
