A tired monday morning

I have finally uploaded the April pictures and will send them out today. These were mostly from when Carl's grandparents visited and when Deb visited and we went to the park. Carl was very camera happy at the park, so we have quite a few pictures. I will add a few of my favorites here.




This past weekend Carl had to work at the Smyrna Jonquil festival for the Smyrna Tree Board and I went to the Inman Park Festival with a group of friends. It was a good time, we got rained on for a few minutes, but Alex loved it - combining his 2 favorite things... the outdoors and bath!
Sunday we were going to go the the Jonquil festival, but when we drove up there it got rained out, so we just went back home and got some things done around the house. Carl ended up wrenching his back last night so he is going to the doctor today to get it looked at, hopefully it is just some muscles that need to calm back down.

Carl's dad [aka Nono] ended up in the hospital this last week and had to have a blood clot removed from his leg, but is home now and doing well, we are very happy about that!

This is my last official week in my current job in the Finance department - I am moving over to the IT department as a Finance Manager. I am excited but nervous too. I will be pulling double duty in both groups for at least the first month, but hopefully things will calm down by the end of May and I will be able to settle into my new position.

Speaking of May, I am very excited about celebrating my first Mothers Day and it is more special that my first Mothers Days is also my birthday! We are planning on going to brunch at Rays on the River with my parents so we will celebrate 2 moms and a birthday all at once.

I don't think it will be long before Alex is walking on his own, he will take a few steps [really leaning lunges] to either me or Carl from the coffee table if we are sitting near on the floor, and he will walk along outside and only hold 1 of our fingers. His dexterity is also getting better, he now can move the small slides in his new truck book [thanks Aunt Deb!] and he puts his balls into his Pooh toy and watches them go down the slides and then claps at himself proudly when it reaches the bottom.

Hope everyone has a great week
