(Mom's) Home Sweet Home

We had a couple of days in Mobile where we just played around and let the boys relive my childhood. 

They played with out old toys.

Played with my old dollhouse

Went on adventures in the backyard ( and helped Bob Bob in his veggie garden).

Took walks in the square

Rode the Iron Deer

And, of course, climbed trees!

So here I am ready to finish blogging about our trip home!

My phone will not let me post pictures anymore so I couldn't write as much as I used to.  I had to download all my photos to my computer ( who has time for that?)

So as you can tell from the last post, we made it to New Orleans to meet my parents at the awesome hotel!

The next day we woke up, did a little Starbucks run and headed to the aquarium!  This trip was all about the boys so we made sure we threw in a lot of kid friendly things!  The boys were a little tired and moody from all the driving the day before so we made it through the aquarium pretty fast but it was still a lot of fun.  After the aquarium we got in the cars and continued our journey to Mobile.

We made it to New Orleans after 7 hours of driving. My parents checked in before we got there so they could help us get out of the car.

We had a wonderful 2 bedroom suite two blocks from the river and right on Canal. The suite gave the boys room to run around and get some energy out.

Road trip

The boys and i are on our yearly trip home.

We left on Tuesday and headed through Louisiana. We drove 3 1:2 hours and stopped in Alexandria at a children's museum to play, stretch, and eat.







I brought some lunch with us that we were going to eat before getting back on the road. They had picnic tables but it was sooo hot! We were the only ones there so they let us eat in the party room.




After eating we got in the car and headed to New Orleans to meet my parents.

Fresh Air

We are taking advantage of this weather. It was 90 today. I fear what is to come.

This weekend the boys washed all of their outdoor toys to get the pollen off and get them ready for the summer!




























We went to the zoo Sunday afternoon since Smith took a nap at 9am. Usually he naps at 11 or 12.







We went to the Farmer's Market Saturday morning. (Yes it was 90 today. And yes, the boys were wearing their fleece jackets Saturday.)

Alert: We can't find Grumpy Baby. Have you seen him?

Outdoors

We've been spending a lot of time outside. I know the 100 degree weather will be here soon!

Chuck is always wearing some type if costume. At Halloween I stock up on a few costumes. That's the only time you can find boy dress up clothes.




Apparently Smith thinks the sand table was a sand box. At least we know it can hold 30pounds.
