Sipping Wine & Play Time : Bottoms Up...We're Catching Up!

So I told you in a previous post that I would have a time when it would SLOW down! Point proven recently right? Things have been crazy over the past week to say the very least and our schedules are not slowing down! The refrigerator is full of upcoming events :)

Over the weekend Max and I (yes your reading this right) ran a half marathon as part of ''team Ty''! A young man named Ty, who did shoreline squad with me last year, ran his first half marathon Saturday! A huge accomplishment right? Well even more so as a young man with cerebral palsy - and he did it!!! We had 13.1 (max was the .1) people running with him and cheering him on the whole way!!! He is so amazing and I am beyond proud of all he has accomplished. I am sure everyone can agree he ROCKS and I think he is ready to do a full? The Decatur running club family is amazing beyond words - 100% some of the best people you will ever meet! Also rocked my new headband!!! I am in love with this :)

After all of this you can imagine we were pooped! We napped Saturday and rested up for Mother's Day on Sunday! We went to church, lunch, and the zoo - a low key celebration with all of wonderful Moms we have in our life!

Naturally I grabbed for my favorite bottle of Champs on Sunday night In celebration of surviving yet another year as a mom... I am always careful when opening but this time the cork flew!!! It hit the light right above my head and glass was everywhere!!! I was truly lucky that I didn't get hurt with all of the glass flying!!! Thankfully I was fine and just had a little mess to clean up. Side note: use a potato to get out a broken light bulb - I didn't know this!

Monday we did grocery shopping that we didn't do on Sunday and my little guy got a haircut. I literally almost cried because without the combover he looks so grown up :( ...still so cute!

Yesterday we hit the little gym for gymnastics class, where my little Man was doing his forward rolls down the cheese all by himself! Proud mamma right here!!! He is now also saying his name during introductions at the beginning of class (the x is hard but he is doing his best and I can tell what he is saying). He is learning and retaining so much each week!!! Can't say enough great things about TLG Springfield :).

Tonight it was a trip to Colee's corner drug and home! I got all of my goodies to continue my allergy shots and we said hi to our favorite pharmacist Erica Colee!!!

Then I made chorizo stuffed chicken for dinner!!! It was ahhhmazing and so easy : ) I got this from a girl at work and she put it on Pinterest so find it and make it!!! It won't let you down, especially if you love Mexican! Low carb if you don't serve with rice too!!!

And if your like me you don't do your best work in the kitchen with out a little wine to go with! White wine with chicken so I went with a Chardonnay - my fav! I love this one because of the ''O'', it will be a great addition to my cork collection! It is defiantly a barrel aged wine if you like that flavor :)
