Lunch Date with Bubba

I told myself I was going to run today at lunch. I brought my gym bag....and I was mentally preparing all morning as I worked. But 11:15 rolled around and I had a brilliant idea pop into my head. I was going to show up at the boys' school and take Bubba to lunch! I was hoping that Bubba would be happy to see me and not prefer to eat lunch with his best friend Chase. I got to the school office five minutes before lunch actually started. The secretary called Bubba's classroom and told his teacher he was leaving for an appt. A few moments later Bubba comes wandering into the office thinking he had a doctor appt or something. When I told him I was taking him to lunch he was very excited and that made me very happy. He put his arm around my waist and we headed out to the car. I asked him where he would like to eat and he wanted Chick-a-Filet. Unfortunately I had to tell him no because there wasn't enough time. Instead I offered Panda Express---which I thought was his favorite place AND right down the street.

Bubba's favorite...orange chicken and pot stickers. This boy can eat!!

Bubba gets an hour for lunch so we had plenty of time to get dessert. We packed up the leftover chicken to go and headed to Tutti Frutti Yogurt. Of course Bubba decided to eat his leftovers on the way there!

The trip was successful in many ways, BUT we did discover the return of daddy's favorite flavor which we were told was discontinued: Pink Lemonade!! We called Luke immediately to tell him the good news! :) I made my yogurt to go and Bubba ate his on the drive back to school.

I really enjoyed surprising Bubba and getting to spend some time alone with him. Its very rare I get to spend such quality alone time with the boys since they are in school so I was in heaven today! I love you Bubba.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
