Little Kong: Sunshine FINALLY

I am happy (and relieved) to say that we FINALLY got some sunshine and warm weather around here! AND it even looks as though it might be here to stay! (by "stay" I mean no more white stuff). Seriously it's about time, pretty sure I've reached my wits end when it comes to cold weather. So needless to say it was a pretty busy weekend. In fact we tried to cram so many things into a day and a half (had to be at the cafe for most of Saturday) while it was nice out that it ended up being more exhausting than anything. For starters, I think everyone in town was at Home Depot buying supplies to start planting and doing yard work, Johnny spent the entire day outside planting trees along our fence in hopes of one day gaining a bit more privacy from the neighbors. I took some pretty hilarious pics of this from the upstairs bedroom window but he would kill me if I posted them. It was Johnny with our little 7lb Yorkie planting trees together in the backyard, SO funny! In between mulching and digging he took breaks to spray paint the dining room table which seems to be a never ending project around here!! Its still not finished, needs a top coat to protect and give it shine. I hung out with Jack and cleaned, played, and tackled a project of my own....I decided to paint an end table that I have, wanted to add a pop of color in the room. That is still in progress as well because the first color I chose I ended up hating so had to go pick something else out. I really like it now though, just needs a final coat. I will post pics when its all finished.

Jack has GOT to start crawling soon, Its going to be any day now I just know it. Not that I'm trying to rush him or anything its just that he gets so close and he's trying so hard that I just want the little guy to accomplish his goal already..haha. It'll probably happen on a day when I have to leave him with a sitter for a couple hours. I had to do that today and I told her that if he does crawl then just don't tell me, or rather just push him down so he doesn't do it!!! LOL I would be so sad if I missed that, especially since I'm with him 24/7 for the most part! He totally got on all fours yesterday in his crib but when playing on the floor he acts as though he doesn't know how to do that. If he's really mad and doesn't want to go down for a nap he will push his arms out and get up on his toes like he's in a plank position and then flop back down. Like I said, its only a matter of time.

In Cafe news I FINALLY found someone to work the days that I am there right now. This way I can stay home with Jack and still pop in to visit whenever I want (but not "have" to be needed) I had to have the baby at work with me on Monday and it just wasn't happening, he's way to big and wants to be in my arms looking at everything that's happening the entire time. THANK GOD for those little puffs and yogurt melts, they distract him and keep him quiet for a little bit :) Yes I've resorted to feeding my kid treats to keep him quiet! Thankfully he's a big hit with our regular customers and they love visiting with him, just doesn't allow me to actually get anything done while I'm there.

Here we are outside over the weekend enjoying some of the sunshine......bring on SUMMER, we are ready!!
