Still no sign of Spring!

Teague wanted to know how to do mommy's workouts - so here Ryan and Teague are practicing!

It's hard to see in this picture, but Teague was watching a movie and Lola came over and sat in his lap!

...and being cute again!

...and again (sporting her CSB/SJU shirt that the alumni association sent her when she was born!)

Well here we are, near the last day of February and it does not appear as though Spring plans to make an appearance anytime soon! Ugh.

We went to Rochester this weekend for my cousin, Bryan's, wedding. It was a 2 1/2 hour drive. Lola screamed the whole way, the roads were terrible from that dusting of snow (cars in the ditches, etc.) and then Lola came down with the same virus that Teague had earlier this week. She was miserable. And then she didn't sleep well in the hotel and both Ryan and I woke with this same virus. So off we went, back home, Lola luckily slept about 45 minutes of the drive, so we only had to listen to her scream for about 2 hours. Let me tell you, the two parents being sick and having to parent two children is more than I ever care to do again. The only "good" thing is that we had both in bed by 7:15 tonight. I just hope we are all over this in the next day or so!

Lola, she talks so much and says so many cute things! "Oh My!", "Teague" (Teeeeeee), "Papa", "Skys" (Skylar), "Mine!", "Oooooooo" (No), "e i e i o".... It's so much fun listening to her. She's very bossy and usually she gets her way with most people - I guess when you're so cute that happens?!

Teague cracks us up daily with his sayings! He was so excited for this weekend to go to the "Show and Tell" (hotel)! So funny. Or when his books were falling off of the bed and he exclaimed that his books were "dripping"! Like I said he had a bug this last week and still seems a little under the weather, but hoping he turns the corner soon.

I received a lot of emails (and a comment here) regarding my last post. Thanks for the support. I do know we all struggle at times with our jobs and it's just getting over the hump, picking myself up and moving on. There are some things that I know I will never get in my job. As much as I would like to throw my hands up in the air and just walk away, I have to give it the rest of the school year. I just want to do what's best for my family and I don't know what that is quite yet...

The bball season is (sort of) winding down - however March is the busiest (I guess it's called March Madness for a reason)! This is the last week of the regular season, but now we have conference meetings, seeding meetings, playoffs, state tournament, etc. and so it is not all over until March 25th. The light at the end of this tunnel is that we have booked a 4 night vacation to Cancun the beginning of April! I am excited and even better that I will NOT be pregnant this time when I am at an all-inclusive Mexican resort!! Margarita, Pina Colada....anyone?! =)
