We have a couple of trees in the backyard that Jack is loving to climb too! I know we keep talking about the backyard but it really is so much fun and we just love being back there and playing and relaxing!
We took the kids to a Gwinnett Braves game about a week ago after work one night. It was such a fun experience! The facility is really nice, all the seats are great and there is not a ton of walking! Jack and Lucy were very interested in snacking and eating...a little more than watching baseball! Poppa and Nunno came to meet us too and that was fun! It was also Medieval Times night and both kids were intrigued by the knights walking around! Both kids were VERY tired by the time we left. (This is where real life comes crashing in...) Jack was riding on Poppa's shoulders heading to the car and said, "I wish we hadn't come to the baseball game. I am really tired." Steven just smiled and said, "Well buddy that makes it all worth it!"
Gracious! Gotta love the honesty of kiddos. Steven and I worked all day, Steven went to the field to get tickets and bought the kids tomahawks to take to the game earlier in the day, we drove an hour in traffic, bought tons of snacks and food ....and not too many thank yous! Jack redeemed himself on the way home by catching a second wind and telling us he had fun and wanted to learn "Take Me Out to the Ballgame"! Jack and Lucy sang it over and over on the way home!
This past week I had to travel to Savannah for work and took the kids with me to visit with family. We had a nice visit and got some good time with family and friends! We even fit in a trip to the outdoor Children's Museum at the Roundhouse. We got back on Friday afternoon and the kids went to Poppa and Nunno's so Steven and I could go out on Friday night with friends for a birthday celebration and then a wedding last night! It was really fun to have some time just us to go out with adults! The wedding last night was so fun and we got to see lots of friends from high school and college!
We also have been doing some potty training with Miss Lucy. She is doing alright ... she is very interested but it is not clicking quite yet! We will keep working! Hopefully Mommy and Daddy will stay very patient!
