Snow in April...in GEORGIA!

I know I am a couple of days late on the snow thing, but seriously...what in the world? We actually got some snow down here on Tuesday...or Monday (I have no idea what days are what anymore...sad I know). Just last Saturday we were out in shorts at the park. So weird. Then yesterday we were back up to 65ish degrees. I don't get it, but I am SOOOOO glad that the sunny skies are back out and the temperature is back up. Today, we went to the park with the playgroup gals from church. It was so nice to get outside and let Sam run around like crazy. He had so much fun. I do love SPRING! However, the only thing that has not been fun about this spring thing...is the POLLEN! Oh my goodness! It is about to make me scratch my eyeballs out! I am actually going to get some medicine today (I hate taking medicine). I've never had any sort of allergy situation like this...UGH! I can breathe much better today so that is a good thing. Sam's eyes are watering like crazy too, so I don't know if something is going on with him, but he seems to be feeling just fine and not bothering him, so I'm thinking he'll work himself out of it. We'll see though. Anywho, just thought I'd post some pictures from this week.

Here we are getting ready to head to the gym one day this week. Notice the sweatshirt...in APRIL! We were looking out the back door and watching the snow fall. There wasn't much and it never stuck, but was fun to see some flakes.
Just thought this was a cute picture. He looks like such a big boy here.
I was emptying the dishwasher the other day and heard something rarely heard at out house...SILENCE! I knew exactly where to look...the stairs. This is what I found. Luckily, he can go up and down really well, but he's not allowed to go when one of us aren't there with him...so mommy wasn't too happy with him at this point! He thought he was funny though...and yes, I did snap a picture.

Sam's new favorite game...running while looking straight up at the ceiling. He thinks it is hilarious! But, you can imagine how this turns out for us! Yep...the above picture is what happens when he does this. He was running and fell in the family room where the carpet meets the kitchen tile threshhold...YIKES! I was really scared b/c it swelled up really bad but never started bleeding. You can see it's right next to his stitches scar...I mean...seriously. Poor baby, he will have scars all over his little head! This is the picture I took on my phone to send Ben at work. This was pretty soon after it happened. It looked better today, so I think he'll be alright! :) Unforunately, I think he inherited my coordination!

Yesterday afternoon we went outside to play. I think Sam was getting super bored being couped up inside, so we were glad the weather was nice enough to play outside. Please excuse the outfit not matching...I took his jeans off when he took his nap (sleeping in jeans isn't comfy for me, so surely it's not comfy for him). :)
Of course...Sam found a stick to carry around the whole time. Such a boy!
This is the last "paint" picture I'll post for a while. But I thought I'd take one of the finished ceiling in our bedroom. It's a bit darker in person, but it makes it feel even that much warmer in there. It is a really relaxing room...and I just love it now with the new colors.
