Today was a good Day
- Ice Cube

Headed to that place I blogged about a few weeks ago. My mom and I took the kids. They had an absolute blast. So glad I didn't sell the passes.



Porter and Abigail climbing



You're way up there Buddy



Bubba just having fun



Mom and Abigail coming down the slide



Up up up



Porter with his glasses, truck and dino. He kept track of those 3 items the whole time.



Sissy coming down the small slide.



Both kids on the slide. Weeeeeeeeeeeee



So funny to watch the kids get sideways on the slide. They sent the trucks down first.



Here comes Abigail





You can see Abigail way up there if you look close or click on pic.



Here comes my bubby


Afterwards we headed to the Outlet Mall and Grammie bought us a few surprises. Porter got a dress shirt and TIE for Easter. Now he can be like dad. Abigail got a really cute Cupcake outfit. There are 2 cupcakes on the back of the skirt.

Thanks Grammie!

I took Abigail's picture of her sitting on this bench. She was looking at her reflection in the window. I love her hair blowing in the wind.

We had such a great day. (Took me 2 hours to get the kids asleep. They got in bed at 2, finally fell asleep at 4) Will be a late night, fun night with daddy!

Arboretum

I loaded up the kids and we headed to Arboretum. We got Thundercloud Sub and sat outside and ate it. The kids stole the ships. They love a bag of chips. And they kept stealing my drink too. They ran around in the open grass and enjoyed themselves.



Enjoying my chips.



Bubby practicing walking up and down a steep hill.



Good job Bubby!



Up and down the stairs.



Running



I'm gonna get you mom.







This pic is so cute of Abigail. Running running running. She's like Forest Gump.





Stealing my chips.



Abigail chasing Porter.

After the park we walked to Barnes and Nable and played with the Thomas the Train table for about an hour. The kids love it. When it's time to go I tell them to put Thomas in his bed. They wave and say "Night night"

Sorry for the delay in posts. No too much going on around here. Just waiting on spring so the kids can play outside more. They love to be outside.



Porter with his hands on his hips. Such a big boy.



Getting chairs to watch the trash truck.



Precious brother and sister. They certainly are buddies.



Waiting.........................



Up from my nap. In my "fwowy dress"
Abigail likes to change clothes a few times a day. Oh well.



Learning to buckle my shoes.



No no!

The kids are growing up!

Porter and Abigail are starting to drink out of real cups. Sippy cups are on their way out and I'll be done with them starting spring. We'll be outside and lots of opportunity to practice. They are real careful and know how to tip the cup slowly. I place a little juice in it and they down it then want more.







We got them these balls at Target and the love them It's fun to kick them and watch them bounce off stuff. Gives them lots of exercise too!



I caught Bubby being like a big kid with his leg propped up and just relaxing.



Abigail with her ball.







On Saturday we went to Home Depot.



Abigail made a heart box.



Porter made football bookends.



When Abigail got up from her nap she said "Flow-ey".
Abigail got to hold the flowers we bought in her lap on the ride home. She really liked these flowers. I told her that after her nap we could plant the flowers. She didn't want to take them out of the package, but ended helping me.











Porter has to carry his favorite toys everywhere. He has learned to carry things in his mouth. Smart boy!



Abigail in her beer box.



Hollywood at the table



I asked Abigail to be a mad Dinosaur. Mad dino cross their arms and pout.


Oh, and we've been doing this
