I have to admit....I miss him!

I thought for sure I would be loving life when I sent Weston up to St. Johns for the weekend. The first day or so was really nice not having to follow him around every second making sure he was not cutting his hair, drawing on my bed with black magic marker or putting hand towels in the toilet(yes, he did all of those things). But I have found myself missing his sweet little spirit. He is such a happy boy and a joy to have around.
So, as I said, this was just for the weekend. But, Tra' and Andrea ended up leaving Saturday morning for Oklahoma....long story short, Weston is still in St. Johns til Friday when they come to visit. Knowing that he would have been back this last Friday, I did not send any church clothes. As you can see, Grandma made do with some old knickers that belonged to uncle Sean. What a priceless picture!
I have been able to finish many things while my little/big one is away. Andrea and Tra' helped me paint four rooms in the house. It was so much fun to have them stay and see the house transform with the painting. I have never painted before and loved the see how much it changed each room. I have done some touch up and just finished sanding and painting an old dresser for Caden's room. Not only that, I finally have my etsy shop up and running with a few items. I am so excited to keep adding more items and hopefully get some business going. With all of my craftiness(trying to be) going on around the house, I have neglected a lot of laundry and dishes. But, I am getting back to the domestic diva I try to be. I will try to post some pictures later of all the painting I have done. Back to the dishes I go!

I love your etsy shop! Oh, and I agree with the trend on neglecting dishes. Who wants to do dishes when there's other fun stuff to do! Unfortunately, I don't have any cool freshly painted rooms to show off. I can't wait for the pictures!

He looks so cute in that picture. I bet he is having a blast at Grandma's house.
