Spring is just around the corner!

Im starting to see birds outside again, which means warm weather is coming! Though, I will say, i saw a little bit of snow flurries on my way to work this morning. Boo. I think everyone in my house is going stir crazy, and we are ready to be able to go outside to play again!

I finally got back my test results back. I have celiac disease, which is just basically a gluten intolerence. Although Im glad to finally have an answer to the problem......gluten is in the majority of food. Its hereditary, and given Emmas stomach problems, its a given she has it also. So we follow a gluten free diet. I was really bummed to begin with, but the more I learn about food, its not so bad. There are tons of gluten free food, and recipes. Theres no medicine for it, just a lifetime without gluten lol.

Our trip to Tulsa was a blast. It was a much needed getaway. I hadnt been back there for 9 years. Which is crazy to think about. And out of all my friends from there, Sammi is the only one Ive seen since I moved, and that has been only once. Its pretty amazing that we all seemed to pick up right where we left off, just like I never left. I was fully prepared for there to be some awkward moments, or times when no one had anything to talk about....but it was far from that. The girls had so much fun too. I was a little nervous about our first road trip together. But they did really good. They slept on the car ride there, and home. They got along with Sammi's kids, and slept good at night, and nap time, which was a huge concern for me. I know we are definately capable of doing more things like this together now :)

It has been a little chaotic since we got home form Tulsa. I feel like I cant seem to get caught up on my housework. Which is funny to me, because instead of doing it, I am sitting here at the computer. Maybe I shouldnt complain about it being dirty lol. We have been super busy with Emmas dance class, and church, and our saturday brunch. Ive had to meet Emmas dad halfway in AR this past weekend for her visit. I am thankful that we get to do all these things, but I really would like one day where I have NOTHING to do. That is my plan for this weekend. Or maybe at least shoot for that Saturday. Sunday is my friends baby shower, which I am super excited for. She is having a girl, and I can totally handle the girl stuff. Emma asked me when my friend first found out that she was pregnant, if I could have a baby in my tummy for her....because there was a new baby at daycare. I was a little shocked to say the least. I told her that mommy wasnt going to have any babies, but Miss Kayla would have one for us. She seemed to be content with that answer. So everytime we see Kayla, Emma asks how her baby is, and if she can feel her move. She loves to buy stuff for her, and talks about her. Its quite cute..and sad all at the same time.

Tomorrow night, is our first womens meeting outside our Wednesday night class at church. I am really excited and happy with everyone that decided to continue meeting. Wish me luck!
