It has been one long weekend. Today, we began to take our steps to get back to normal.
Andy stayed home for some quality computer'ing time, checking his sites and tinkering with Kelsey's computer. Carter and I braved the super-cold to go to Jordan Creek for the day. We started our adventure with an M & M cookie and a soda. It gave us enough energy to go to Build-A-Bear. Carter picked out her bear skin, stuffed it and gave it a heart (it was a little therapy for me, to not forget but to move on, and I must have looked like a teary-eyed insane woman at the store!). Once our bear was stuffed, Carter gave her a "bath" and picked out her outfit. We named her Nina Bear and she was issued a birth certificate. Carter lugged her around the entire mall, talking to her during lunch and at our restroom stop. The next stop for Carter, Nina and I was Barnes and Noble to get some fun books (dot to dot and a pirate maze book!), and then to Cinnabon for a Daddy-treat. We went necklace shopping for Mommy, and Carter and Nina picked out a super butterfly pendant for me. Then we had a lunch for champions: pizza and water! Nina loves pizza, don't you know?!

C is for cookie and cookie is for Carter! Yummy!

Getting eaten by the hippo in the play area! Oh no!!!
