Here is Eli with his cousin Abby, they are too cute together!
Some other things that have been keeping us super busy - Adam's plumbing business (started just about 6 months ago is doing well!!) work, life, fitting in the much needed exercising/running, oh yeah and keeping up with 2 young kiddies!Overall, Adam's business has been doing well, he has been steadily busy and has managed himself through a very steep learning curve with all the "office work" that comes along with owning a plumbing outfit. He is impressing me more and more each day and I am very proud of him. If only I had more time where I could help him out I would. As it is I am barely getting things done that I need to get done around our house. Lots of times the things I want to do get completely compromised and I have to remind myself that Adam is working hard on building his business. It gets tough having to constantly change my plans for outdoor runs I have planned or errands but we are trying to work it out as best we can. I am finding myself only getting to surface clean my house (this is killing me. I didn't earn the nickname "Monica" from Friends for no reason!).
Getting back to our trip to the farm this weekend...the weather was SO HOT . I met Adam's Aunt Peg & Cousin Abby there, Eli loves playing with Abby. Peg was a super huge help with the boys. BUT lets be honest - a 15 lb. 10 oz. 6 1/2 month old baby strapped to your body while picking apples and dodging bee's is no fun. I was also trying to keep Eli from picking up rotten apples and or eating them. I was sweating, and a bit cranky but didn't show it as best as I could. I did an early morning workout that day too, and juggled 2 kids the whole day solo, it was rough! Thankfully in the evening we went to dinner with Adam's family without the kiddies and I enjoyed a fantastic Cosmo and glass of wine!
This picture that Aunt Peg was able to get of the 3 of us basically sums it up. I wanted to rub my eyes just like Bo is doing here so bad!
Right after the weekend I have been super busy at work, and I even had to travel into NYC yesterday and be a city girl for the Metlife Stable Value Conference(sounds fun right?). It was a long day of traveling, I got home at 8:15 and I had to wear a suit, I hate wearing suits. In fact I hate it so much that I brought a change of clothes once I got into my minivan at the train station at the end of the day!
No gym this morning for me (it's Adam's day anyways) but I have been keeping up with my morning workouts I am happy to report. This weekend I think we are taking Eli to see Sesame Street Live if I can get tickets, if it happens I will be posting some fun pics very soon!
Hope you all are well :)
