Playing Catch Up Again...

I realize I haven't blogged in over a month. It's been in the back of my mind for a while but I just keep putting it off. This spring we've been busy!

First thing - An update on Perry's finger! It's healing up nicely, thankfully! When it's all said and done, it's going to be a little misshaped, and we're not sure if there will be a nail or not. He went back in a few more times for follow ups with his doctor. At one point they were thinking about doing a skin graph, but decided against it. Once most of the scab came off, he was able to start bending it again. He still can't completely use it as it's still pretty tender, but it's made a lot of progress in the last 8 weeks. Charlotte loves to look and make faces at it...

Just after spring break, Hunter started baseball. I've posted a few videos on Facebook but I'll expand on baseball later. For the most part, the weather has been great for his games! I was VERY disappointed I missed his first games and opening ceremonies. I'm sure he was missing me too! Nanny was there to watch for me though. She came to town to watch the kids while I was in Las Vegas for the weekend for a bachelorette party.

I left on a Friday morning for the party and came back on Monday morning. The previous Sunday at work I started feeling nauseous at the end of my shift. By the early hours of the morning, I was throwing up in the toilet. I felt a little sick still on Monday (but still managed to get my hair colored!) but was feeling like myself again on Tuesday, other than a scratchy throat. My throat bothered me all week...and then I left for Vegas. The first night we went to a country bar - turns out trying to talk over music is horrible with a sore throat. I woke up the next morning with no voice. I was just a little squeak box for the rest of the trip. 

 On Saturday night we dressed up for a night on the town and rode on the High Roller Wheel. It just opened this past fall and has a great view from the top! I'll tell you what though, this ride didn't really help my fear of heights - not to mention, it doesn't stop when getting on or off... I took a running jump in my heels to get off of it!

This is the High Roller Wheel - kind of like a big Ferris wheel that you can walk around in - ours even had an open bar! This was my first time in Vegas so I didn't really know what to expect...it was pretty disappointing that it wasn't just a little bit warmer. I won't even mention the wind...

I was wanting to take Perry to Vegas for his 30th birthday but since I was going to Vegas two weeks before his birthday, I just couldn't justify another trip. Neither could our pocketbook... Instead I took him downtown for night of fun and letting loose. He's hasn't been able to just go have fun for a while. His night ended with Kim and I attempting to carry him inside by his hands and feet...

And I got my hair done before I left for Vegas! I haven't had color in it for literally years. When I brought it up to Perry that I wanted to put color, like actual color - pink or blue or purple, I wasn't working and figured now would be the best time to "get wild" with it. For my birthday in February he told me I could schedule a hair appointment to do whatever I wanted to do to it, and he'd come home from work to watch the kids. Three months later I finally took him up on that offer. Since I am working now, I did something a little less crazy and went for the ombre look. In my head it was more drastically blonde on the tips. But this picture makes it look more obvious that how it turned out. I can hardly notice a difference...

I think that's all the catching up I can do for now...I still have Charlotte's birthday and baseball to blog about in the next few days!
