Mom's Little Helper

Well since Nathan no longer naps I have been trying to find ways to still get some chores done during the day. the other day I thought I would attempt to clean the bathroom. The problem is every time I try to do anything Nathan wants to help. Which is fine but just means it takes twice as long to complete. Nathan saw me carry the cleaning supplies into the bathroom and immediately started trying to help. He asked me to spray some cleaner in the bathtub and then found a toothbrush I had in the cleaning bucket and started to scrub the walls and tub with it. Haha!

Bowling

A Couple Saturdays ago we decided that we were tried of being stuck inside and bored so we thought it would be fun to take Nathan bowling. He thought it was so much fun, not sure why we didn't think of going sooner. We invited a friend and her kids and had a blast!

Annual Visit to California

I really need to start getting caught up on my blogging. Seeing as the last real post I made was at Christmas time. But Honestly I have been finding it difficult to spend much time on the computer lately. Not only have we given up on naps with Nathan but I pretty much feel cruddy all of the time. I finally decided that we had to stop naps because he was no longer tired at bedtime. Bedtime became a huge battle and most nights He was awake until 10 or later. So I decided I had to give up those wonderful 4 hr naps that Nathan would take everyday. It has been a little bit of a struggle to figure out how to get the same things done that I use to get done during those 4 hrs.
We made a trip to California the second week of January to visit our families. We arrived Saturday at my parents and We all headed to Roundtable Pizza for dinner, yum. My Sister was able to come down to Hollister for a few days and we sure had a lot of fun.
Monday me and my sister did a little shopping. Although I tired out pretty quickly. Later that night we went to the movies.
Tuesday we had a great time at the Children's Discovery Museum.

                                                   
                                                        Creating some spin art.

 Wednesday we took it easy and just hung out all morning. Later that afternoon I took Nathan to get some Pictures taking by an awesome child photographer in Hollister. Sugar Plum Portraits. He was very uncooperative but she still was able to get a few cute shots.

Thursday we met up at Happy Hollow Park and Zoo with my parents, Kerri and her boys, Dave's mom, Randalynn with Carson and Mason, and Louisa and her boys. It was so much Fun!

 I love how much these two boys loved riding the frog hopper.

 Nathan really wanted to ride in these swings, luckily he just barely made the height cut off.

Friday night we met up with all of Dave's Family for dinner at Red Robin and some bowling. I forgot how fun bowling can be, although I barely had enough energy to make it through two rounds. For some reason this pregnancy has left to feeling tired and drained all of the the time.

Saturday we made our way back home. We decided to drive straight through to Idaho and didn't get in until almost 3 in the morning. I felt sick for days after, yuck.
