My Morning with Sawyer

I have this great guy in my life.  He is funny, sweet, kisses me, knows the computer and can dress himself.  Did I mention he is 2?  I happen to be fully in love with my nephew and I think he loves me too!  In fact, I think he has me wrapped tightly around his little finger.  Sawyer likes to spend time with his auntie so I thought of the perfect playdate for us!

There is a place in Meridian called JumpTime.  I had heard good things about it and found out it would only cost $3 for Sawyer to go!  I told Sawyer all about it and he was very excited!





There is a Junior spot for kids who are 7 years old and younger.  There were trampolines and big blow up bounce houses.  Sawyer loved it all.  He was sweaty from all the running and jumping!

 Sawyer met a "friend" who helped him out and played with him.

Did I mention the foam pit?  I had to convince him not to eat the foam blocks (gross!).


After playing hard for a couple of hours we headed to Sawyer's favorite place:  Coke and Fries aka McDonalds.
He even sweet talked me into an ice cream cone!

We had a fun morning together and I could spend every day with Sawyer!  He loves to roar and has to follow 2 rules when it comes to roaring:
1.  No roaring at the dinner table, and
2.  No roaring in Harper's face

No one said we couldn't roar at the camera:

The Unfaithful Blogger

If you haven't figured it out by now, I am not exactly a consistent blogger.  My history is to do a few posts in a row and then go months without another one.  There have been some reasons for this happening lately.  Let me share those with you:
1.  Internet.  Many of you know that I used to "borrow" my neighbors' Internet if it didn't have a password on it.  I think it was awfully thoughtful for them to share it with me.  However, it was unavailable at times, or super slow at best.  I am now a proud owner of my very own Internet connection and pay my bill every month!
2.  Time.  This spring was filled with 50 hour work weeks, coaching track until 6:30 and many evening events.  I love my job, coaching and doing other things like serving at my church and being with friends.  It all made for a very busy spring and end of the school year.
3.  Lack of Desire.  When I did do something that I thought was blog worthy, I just didn't feel like posting about it.  It is so much easier to do a status update on Facebook than blog.  I also didn't have any pictures.  Who wants to read a blog post without pictures?  This one doesn't have pictures and if you are still reading, then you are a trooper!

I don't know if sharing those reasons will make me a faithful blogger, but I do plan to come back and share some of my summer adventures so far and how God has taught me this past spring.
