our weekend fun

Some weekends go by to fast, and the weather was nice so we took advantage and when Chris got home on Friday I said ok we have been cooped up in this house all day lets get out.... So I planned a fun weekend for us.... We went swimming, walk to the park, went to the plantarium and saw UNDER THE SEA in 3d and it was really fun(steph noah would love this) anyways this was our weekend in a nut shell.

Kaden has become quit the fish, he wants to swim so bad that he just keeps dunking his head in the water and kicking hoping he gets somewhere, its pretty funny to watch I am thinking he would love lessons....

Connor and daddy

A trip to the moon kaden thought this was the coolest thing ever now he looks at the moon at night as says( Mommy I walked on that)

you can't see but connor still has his bottle in his mouth, i am certain that it doesn't matter where he is moon, earth whatever as long as he has his bottle he is good to go....

This was funny to see kaden pretend to be a news man, he says it is sunny all day but watch out for the poop lol who knows what this boy was thinking....

Under the sea in 3d the boys sat through the whole thing and loved it, it was actually pretty cool

as you can see my little one loves his ba ba

wow hunny you are hot!

a day at the park

Easter at the Mertz's

Easter was a lot of fun this year, even though chris and I waited to the last day to get easter stuff we still made it fun. In the morning I hear kaden go downstairs and he yells the word "YES" runs up stairs and said mom I was good because the EASTER BUNNY did come. This year we put one egg out for kaden and connor with their name on it and inside told them where the easter bunny hid their baskets.... They were so excited ! We went to grandmas betty 's and did an easter egg hunt had lots of yummy food and played with all their neat cousins ....

3D

This was the funnest show, Chris and I took Kaden to the Jordan landing one and watched it in 3D it was worth the money and we had so much fun... Kaden said: Mommy,you look silly in those glasses don't wear those home okay! what a kid! Has anyone seen it yet?

Ready, Set, Go

For the longest time I have wanted to learn how to swim like the pro's, I know how to swim, But one day I was going to learn how to lap swim the right way. My neighbors sweet daughter offered to teach me, so this Saturday we got up at 6am and headed to the pool. I even wore the cap and goggles(which was quite funny, and chris got a good laugh at me):) but I am learning and I loved every minute of it and can't wait to get doing it more.
As mothers we give up so much for our children which is great, we just sometimes forget about US and the things we like to do and things we want to learn, My mother is such an example to me, marring my first dad was hard on her, she was always alone taking care of 5 children never getting to do anything for her.... Marring my step dad was the best thing for her, he supports her in learning new things for example: she tap dances, plays the piano, quilts, they travel all over the world, my mother at 60 years old went SKY DIVING, the list goes on. It is never to late and we are never to old. My neighbor is is in her 40's and has done a marathon for the first time last year and now is training for a triathlon, SHE IS AMAZING!
We need to enjoy life no matter how hard things may be. I have learned to stop wishing and waiting and to do JUST DO IT, I have learned in my life things won't come if I don't at least try. I want to try and I may not be good at it but after my first swim at least making it down and back without dying (lol) I felt such an accomplishment I havn't felt in a long time. A lot of you inspire me too, you all are such great mom's and wifes and do the neatest things thanks for example and inspiration...
Of course with kids it's not easy, but if there is a WILL there is a WAY.... If anyone would like to come with me and learn too I would love it or if you are a swimmer and want to give me tips I would love that too. What kind of hobbies do you have I would enjoy hearing about them?

Decided

So I didn't realize how many of you still read it! Most of my family have become slackers and stopped blogging so I wasn't sure if it was still worth blogging..... But it is since so many of you still blog.....Since we are moving too, this way we can still keep in touch more.... Thanks for letting me know love you all .....

Question?

So I have been thinking that no one blogs anymore.... darn facebook lol, anyways I was just thinking that no one ever reads my blog so why take the time and post anything right... So my question is, Does anyone really read my blog?
