Weekend Recap

+We got rain!!!! Living in the desert we really don't see rain that often so when we do you'll see lots of people out playing in mud puddles and facebook posts of rain and how it's a welcome site. And then following the rain are beautiful rainbows. I was told there was a double, but I only saw this single and it was so bright and beautiful.

+Ryan's been TDY since last Sunday and to say we miss him is an understatement. Thankfully, we've been able to facetime with him every day. We sure miss him though. They're best buddies for sure. He'll be gone for my birthday this week so we will celebrate once he gets back with dinner or something. He already gave me my presents before he left. Sweet thing.

+On Fridays I only work a half day (except for this month, I'll work half days on Thursdays). Anyways, I picked Dominick up from daycare and he took a nap and we went to the BX to grab a few things. Since it was $.99 ice cream at Baskin Robins I treated him to a scoop. He was in heaven.

+Saturday we planned on doing a Target run, grabbing Panera for dinner and then going to church. While at Target I started getting a stomach ache (like in the fall when I was treated for ulcers) so we grabbed Panera to go and went home. It ended up working out. We got to facetime with Ryan, played and we watched Rio (well Dominick only started it) before bed. Tell me he's not adorable?! I dare you!

+We have to put the dogs up pretty much whenever Dominick is eating because he feels the need to share ALL of his food. It's just easier and less distraction for him. He finished before me and went to try to "retrieve" them. He mostly just sticks his fingers under there to feel their paws. :)

+Sunday morning I made waffles for breakfast so we started out with a picnic. I ended up moving him to the table because he was giving my anxiety. I put vanilla greek yogurt and cinnamon on his and his hands and face were a hot mess. He loved it though.

+Dominick LOVES hugging the dogs, but most of the time he crawls all over them and Rocky always lets him, but Calli normally gets up and runs away. She ended up tipping him over on his face and he got this big bruise and puffy eye. I gave him some hylands bumps and bruises (get some if you don't have some) and you can't even tell anymore.

+Since it FINALLY stopped raining on Sunday we went to the park to blow some stink off us. It was cold and pretty windy, but we had a good time regardless.

+Our friends have a hill in their backyard and he loves to go to the "top" it's not very big at all. Well there's also a small hill at the park and he thought it was so fun to climb up and then run down. He looks so tiny.

+He INSISTED on wearing his mittens even though they weren't very helpful at the park. When I got him home his hands were sweaty so I guess they did their job. I figured he would fight me tooth and nail to wear them, but he definitely didn't. Silly guy.

+My friend makes this bath "soap". It's actually called Soaplessly Clean and it's AMAZING. It's organic oatmeal, lavender and something else. It makes Dominick's skin SO soft and is so wonderful. She gave us some for Dominick's birthday, but I just got some more because I needed a refill. It really helps with D's dry and eczema prone skin. LOVE IT!
