The Band of Butlers: Weekend with The Moores

When the doctor told me it would take 2 to 8 weeks to recover from walking pneumonia, he was not kidding! While I am over the coughing and most other symptoms, I am still recovering from the lingering side effects. I get short of breath just from walking, my back and sides still ache from coughing so much and I swear it feels like my lungs are heavy! I feel like I was beat up and rolled down a hill! So.... this week it was the Moores to the rescue! Tanya has been offering (persistently like a big sister does) to watch the kids so I could get some rest, so I finally took her up on her offer. (Once she found out Greyson got to spend last weekend with Nannie and Guppy I would definitely be in trouble with her if I didn't!) Tanya, Lilly, Hallie and Grandpa met Blake in San Antonio to grab the carseats and all the kids' gear (I think Tanya forgot how much stuff we travel with!) and then picked Greyson and Addison up a little early from daycare. Greyson was so excited that Aunt Tanya was picking him up! Greyson is still in his extra-chatty phase so they had an interesting ride to Utopia.

While in Utopia, they went to Hallie's baseball game on Saturday morning, played outside and managed to drag all of Lilly and Hallie's toys out. Addison had every ball in the house out. Good thing Aunt Tanya and Uncle Wayne are such a cool aunt and uncle! Both kiddos did great all weekend! Lilly and Hallie are such great big cousins/babysitters and kept the kiddos entertained! We FaceTimed with them once on Saturday evening, but they could barely slow down to talk to us! It was strange last weekend to only have Addison with us when Greyson went to Nannie's, so it was extremely quiet without either of them! Blake and I even went out to dinner two nights in a row! It felt strange not toting kids, a diaper bag and sippy cups along with us. I managed to get some rest and my back felt much better after having a few days free from picking Addison up and chasing toddlers. Thank you Moores and Nannie!
