You are fast..... BEHIND: Mark

So I am breaking my last two weeks up into multiple posts, because so much happened! The first one was about my first 5K and is here. Numbers two and 3 and be really written together,since they happened at the same time lol.

~~1. 5k~~
2. Trip
3. Sickness
4. Weight loss!

So! My amazing little brother, Mark, is graduating from college in May, but because it is super expensive to travel to San Antonio during that time, and with Lena being 2 at that time means extra cost for flying =(. So, that being said we decided to take Southwest up on their offer on the 3-day sale and got a smoking deal for January! I am so happy Mark understands and gets that we had to do it this way, but he knows how proud I am of the future DENTIST!

So 48 hours before we left for San Antonio, Lena thought it would be the perfect time to get sick with an upper respiratory situation!SWEET! The first couple days of the trip were loaded with Mucinex and the Nebulizer with Albuterol! Thank the Airline Gods, because we got lucky, and there was always an open seat! BOTH WAYS!

While there we shopped and saw some cool things, hung out at my bothers house, saw the Alamo, went on a night time “Princess” horse carriage ride and chilled in the room. By Brothers House! Ha! OMG so funny, especially since 5 boys live together and it looks like that too! It actually makes me miss college, and not having responsibilities. However I taught them a few things while we were there! 1. How to cook in a crock-pot 2. How to open a Beer Bottle with a lighter (amateurs) 3. That they should always have protected sex, otherwise they will end up with a Lena! All the most important things in life. =) It was totally nice to get away and have some fun. I was stressful, because Lena was super sick and I started getting super sick. I think rob was getting a little frustrated with the mucus fest,but who can blame him right?

We did have one awkward situation happen to us. You know how you would do anything for your child when they are sick to make them happy?!Even if it means turning the extra walk in closet into “Lena’s room” by putting her car seat in there, covering it with a blanket, setting up a box as a “table”and hanging the potable DVD player from the Ironing board? I mean she though tit was cool and the whole week she kept going in there and saying “my room” or “ok bye mama and papa, my room” and even making me serve her food in “her room”. Weeeellllllll………so room service came one day to drop off some food we ordered, and Lena had closed the door and was trying to open it to get out and see who came by, and it sounded like she was locked in there on purpose. The room service guy gave me this really weird look and we both looked at the door, back at each other,and I yelled” well if you didn’t close the door on yourself this would not have happened” then I looked back at the guy and said “yeah, we Harry Pottered’ her!”he kind of gave this nervous laugh and took the check and left. I seriously though CPS was going to come LMAO! OMG! Haha it was so funny! Well here are some pictures for you to enjoy!

Oh and to top it off I have Laryngitis!
