Cabin Fever!

Ok our little family has had some serious cabin fever.... Since Paige was born we haven't gone out much and from the kids being constantly sick we have found ourselves home! Enough is enough... even though both kids were coughing we decided to go out. 

We have been taking walks. Belle is hilarious... she has to be wearing the most princess like outfit she can find for the day. So for our stroll she looked darling in her dress up dress and boots!

We also decided to go see Madagascar 3 in the middle of the day so we would not disturb anyone. There was one other family there besides us and we had so much fun. We played around in the cinema for a bit. The car racing game was everyone's favorite. I thought Monkey was going to push the kids off for a minute because he was enjoying it so much! The kids did awesome in the movie.... I packed little snack bags of animal crackers, starbursts, and a sour candy... with a water bottle that Cash dumped over the floor and once he was done with his treats he was done with the movie! So Paige, Cash, and I spent the half of the movie back on the car racing game! Cash pretended it was a kitchen and he was making me bagels! So for now on Belle will be going to the movies and Cash can play kitchen at home!

Then we packed up the next day.... which I feel I pack a months worth of stuff to go anywhere... and we headed to the beach. Paige's first time. I was so happy I packed winter clothes for Paige because at a point it was deceivingly cold! It looked like 90 degrees but felt like 10 degrees for a while!

For our family there is no place quite like the beach. Our grumpy attitudes turn into pure happiness and smiles! So no wonder we go so much! I think we over did it a bit because the next couple days Belle threw up all over her floor... and the next day threw up all over the car! Yes I am getting very good at cleaning up throw up! Which I am not very proud of but you got to do what you got to do! Belle and Cash today seem so much better. I haven't heard their coughs for a couple days- KNOCK ON WOOD! No one has thrown up for 2 days and the runs seem to be running away! So I think we may be over the hump!! I can't express how grateful I am for health or how important it is! I can't express the joy it has been to have Paige be in our family now! Today was such an exciting day... she was awake and I was talking to her and she did her first huge smile! Ohhhh I almost died! Paige is seriously such a sweet heart... Her tiny little body and huge blue eyes seriously make me just melt! I love it so much. I love how Belle and Cash now just love her and can't get enough. Belle is so good with her. If I had to leave I would trust her to take just as good of care of Paige as I would.... and Cash just won't stop touching her and saying, "Paige is so cute!" She is and I am so happy to have her!
