3 Years Old and 20 Months Week 4

We took a mini vacation to Grammy and Poppy's in Savannah.  Everyone had a wonderful time!  The boys fished, fed turtles, swam in a neighbor's pool, went for a boat ride to the beach, and rode the bike, scooter and golf cart. It was an action packed weekend.

Mommy and Daddy enjoyed going for a run and bike rides through the neighborhood.  The dogs loved swimming in the marsh.

I took the boys to the NC Tranportation Museum in Salisbury, NC.  We took a ride on the round table that is used to get the engines out of storage and onto the tracks.  We also rode on a train through the facility.  The boys had lots of fun climbing on all the different engines.  The museum even had a mail car and a hospital train car.  The boys were asleep as we left the parking lot!

Nana, Papaw and Aunt Aimee came to see us this weekend.  Nana and Papaw kept the boys while Drew and I competed in our first sprint triathlon since before we had the boys.  We had fun celebrating Father's Day with both Daddy and Papaw.

3 Years Old and 20 Months Old Week 2

Carson has been trying to jump for ages now but on Friday he got both feet off the ground.  It is a big milestone for the kids turning two.  Now he can truly "hop, ribbit."

We took the boys to Lake Wylie to swim with Travis and Amelia on Sunday.  All the kids enjoyed jumping off the dock.  After lunch, we took them for ice cream and they all ordered dirt cups - vanilla ice cream with crushed Oreos and gummy worms.

The library's summer reading program starts tomorrow.  The boys love going to story time each week and picking out new books.

3 Years Old and 20 Months Week 1

 

We took the boys camping for the first time this weekend.  We went to Hot Springs, NC and stayed at Creek Ridge Campground.  It was a beautiful location on Silver Creek.  We had a little rustic cabin which was nice because it had a bed, bathroom and mini fridge which made camping a little easier. Nana, Papaw, Aunt Aimee and Uncle Anthony joined us on Saturday.  We spent the afternoon lounging at the creek and fishing.  Jackson and Poppy caught little fish.  It was fun to watch them fish together.  Jackson said he caught five fish but he only really caught three.  Poppy said he was going to be a great fisherman because he had the most important part down pat - the fishing stories.

The boys and I have some fun play dates already planned for the summer.  Our first was at Millie's house.  The boys painted with sponges as well as their hands and feet.  Then, they washed off in the sprinkler.
