a full day...

today has been a fun day! i got up at 6:30...on my own. why i can't sleep anymore is beyond me. after i got myself and the boys ready, we ran to target before school to get juice boxes for canon's valentines day party! he was so excited, but i may have been more excited. when we took him in, ledger and i got to hang out in his classroom until the party started. it was so fun meeting his friends and watching him in the class' dynamic. ledger loves going to his classroom. when we pick canon up, ledger wants to stay and play. his teacher, miss traci, made these cute alligator boxes (that's the name of the 2's class) that everyone put their valentine's in.

of course, my boys loved getting to eat a cookie at 9:45 in the morning! they LOVE their sweets. they were sweet to include ledger. he made a huge MESS, but thoroughly enjoyed it!

here's canon's sweet teachers, miss traci and miss lisa. also pictured is the infamous, "-axson"! canon adores him. they were sweet and drug the chairs to the middle of the room and just sat there!

after the party, ledge and i headed out. i love that canon loves school so much that us leaving was not a big deal...he'd rather be there i think! we went and got the van washed. it was driving me all kinds of crazy with that nasty salt/sand stuff on it. at 10:30, we met our friends', zeke and elizabeth, at the park. zeke is only 2 weeks older than ledger. we started out on the swings, but both boys' wanted down to run around. it cracked me up that ledger really could've cared less about all the cool park equipment. he just wanted to run...and sit on the park bench. the boy loves sitting on things. thanks for a fun morning, guys! it was so wonderful to talk to another adult during the day!

next, we headed over to the hospital to get some bloodwork done on ledger. we suspect he has some type of peanut allergy :( if he touches peanut butter (pb sandwiches or puppy chow in his case), he breaks out in hives on his hands and face and gets a raspy voice. benadryl usually takes care of it pretty fast, but we want to know what we're dealing with! he did and they were fast. he just needed his mama to hold him and his blankie!

we then headed to the mall. i wanted to look at a couple of stores for me. my birthday money is burning a hole in my pocket. i can make it stretch forever though! today, gap was having a huge clearance sale. i got 3 shirts for under $25 bucks! after we left, i used my most recent free starbucks drink coupon! they randomly sent me another one so i took advantage. she put an extra shot of espresso in there, and to say i was bouncing off the walls would be an understatement...then i crashed a couple of hours later and still haven't recovered!

before heading to get canon, we ran in a different target to see if they had this black blouse my sister had just bought for $4.98...they did!! ledgie was such a trooper the whole day with no nap, but passed out as soon as he hit his seat.

this evening has been low-key, no plans. lane entertained the boys' for awhile. the boys wore lane out, not themselves...that's usually how it goes! they LOVE playing with their daddy.

I love that Ledgie carries his blankie everywhere. It is kinda like "Where's Waldo" in all the pics!
