January adventures

 We spent the first half of January ill. And when I say ill, I mean really ill. Although we never got tested I'm pretty sure we had the flu. Nate stayed home from work for a whole week. We've never been so sick. all of us. at the same time. seriously so bad. Pretty sure I would have died without the use of tylenol and ibuprofen. Seriously. I still feel ill just thinking about it. So miserable. It might not have been so bad if it hadn't been everybody. When I'm sick, I like putting on a hoodie that's 3 sizes too big for me and just laying on the couch watching downton abbey for 5 days straight. I'm not gonna lie. I loved that part about it. But because I was wearing a certain somebody's only hoodie, he resorted to other methods of warmness.
Haha. Poor guy. We all felt so miserable. That's the throw for our couch.
In the midst of all our sickness, we were feeling better but still not allowed to go out in public. So we gave this dude a hair cut.
 His first suit coat. I can't wait til he grows into it. Love it!
 Happy Birthday to me! We went to ikea. lame I know. but I really wanted to do something for me. And what's not better than shopping. And then we went out that weekend sans kids. We had a really great time just us. One of my more mellow birthdays. But definitely one of the best to date.
 Later in January we went to the aquarium for the first time. We got 4 of us in for the price of 1! It was amazing!!! We had so much fun.
 Ferris Wheel
 Jeff thought it was too loud. We're still not sure what he was talking about. What a beautiful city though. We love Houston!

 Waiting in line for the much beloved train. seriously.
 much beloved.
 Carousel. Jeff wouldn't ride at first. Notice the death grip.
 He wouldn't even get on something the first time. Than he wasnted me to hold on to him like this...
 That was even a little loosey goosey for him, so he had to put his arm around me. Love his faces...
 Then we moved to hand holding. He freaked out about halfway through this ride. Notice the death grip?
Aria on the other hand...
 It's crazy how these two opposites could have come from the same two people.
 And there's Aria... monkeying away. We had a great day playing with friends at our local park.
We had a pretty great January....

We love our pools. Especially with friends. Here we are trying to convince Nate he can do a front flip. He still doesn't believe me.  #thiswasthebestone   #jeffjustwentupanddidit   #overandover   #unafraid   #doesntcarewhatpeoplethink   #wishididnt  # summerlovin Independence day kickball.

"I've never been so alone, alone, and I've, and I've never been so alive. So alive." - Motorcycle Drive-by - Third Eye Blind //How we feel. All the time. Glad we could share a little piece of our hearts today with the senior center. They all knew "You Are My Sunshine" which made my heart Happy.  #music   #thismanandhisguitar #wooshearts   #lovehim   #evieproject #evielaree  one of the residents told us to look up a video on YouTube about Amazing Grace. He thought we would like it.  #forreal   #howcouldheknow #n8lovesthirdeyeblind   #ilovehimforit   Also my friend intends to "adopt a grandma here". What a great idea. I can't wait to find out how it goes.  #opa Jeff thinks it's fun to get up with the sun. Apparently it's starting to wear on him because this is what I woke up to this morning.  #goodmorning   #goodmorning   #asleepagainalready   #itsgreattostayoutlate We signed up to help at the Houston food Ban...

band wagon

To better suit my purposes, I have decided to make this more of a journal. That's what it is anyway, but I see no reason to allow random people to see it. I am going *private* Please leave your email if you are even a casual observer at the happenings in the Pettit household. You are welcome any time. The change will happen one month from today.
