Random Signs of Spring

he looks like a little boy!
I noticed several random signs of spring yesterday as chasen and I were out and about:
squirls
all the parking lots of major stores are full of bags of mulch, fertilizer and they are putting up those big white tents....
and my least favorite sign of spring.
Smoke
from all the people burning ditches and fields, ever since the barn fire I get really nervous and anxious when I see all that smoke, the other night I swore it was coming from our house and convinced myself our house was on fire. It was NOT. We are approaching the 2year anniversary of that awful fire, i will post on it later this week.
Chasen and I had a very busy day yesterday
we met daddy for lunch at fireside grill in north liberty then i took chasen ALONE to the mall and as soon as i was half undressed trying on a baptism/easter outfit he starts crying....but I managed to get an outfit and go to another store for some shirts, I had to carry him and push the stroller the whole time, my left bicep is going to be buff!!
I also noticed something I never would have noticed had I not been a mom, non automatic doors SUCK!
After shopping we came home loaded up the jogger stroller (which was hard, I think the wheel comes off but i couldn't figure it out) and Kevin and went to Mt.Vernon and walked all around campus and that side of town, down to the house ean and I used to live in, I told Chasen all kids of stories about his mommy and daddy, that he probably didnt need to hear lol, just wanted him to know that his mama and dada were crazy cats back in the day;) mit was hard waling both of them, kevin kept wanting to chase squirls. Silly pup!
then we came home grilled with grammie and crashed!
I got absolutely nothing accomplished and it was GREAT!!! I guess Ill be busy this week.
Today we slept in and are about to head out to the grocery store for eggs so we can make bunny shaped sugar cookies!!
today will be a lazy day,
mama is sore from all the walking and carrying yesterday.
