This last weekend...

Okay so heres the thing. This last weekend RC and I went over to Cocoa Beach. One of RC's highschool buddies got married on Sat. Well my parents were kind enough to keep our kiddo's so we had a weekend no kids (well sort of, I'll explain in a minute). We headed over Friday evening and got to spend the evening in a beautiful hotel with a gorgeous view from the balcony. We were on the top floor and had an ocean view!
Then on Saturday we got up and went to the wedding. Which was beautiful! Then we headed over to my cousins house and spent the evening with her and her family. Which she has 2 boys - that would be the sort of thing metioned above! I made some new friends because her boys seemed to really like me. It could have to do with the drinks from my diet coke and all. They also really liked RC which might have to do with the chocolate chip cookies. I had a blast. We stayed until about 3:30 Sunday and then drove back to pick up the boys.
Well I got back and my mom was telling me about their fun filled weekend. On Friday night Mom and the boys went to Women of Worship ( a womens bible study), and then went to pick up Grandpa from the airport. Saturday they went to Lettuce Lake and had a picnic. Mom says my oldest is just like his father, "Okay we've seen this lets get moving!" Which for those who don't know Lettuce Lake has this beautiful board walk that allows you to see alligators (even though they didn't see any this time), birds (they saw 2 white ones and a black, no Grandpa explained to AC that is was brown, one), and snakes (this was the highlight to the boys, or atleast the one they get so excited about to tell me!!). They also got to play on the playground there at the park.

Well I also happened to find out that they did child labor. Yes I did say child labor because the poor boy only made a dollar doing this. AC helped his Grandpa take down the christmas lights. Yes as you can see in the following pics AC got to get on the roof and sit up on the ladder. Grandma said that he would get to a staple and say " This is too hard. No no I won't give up, I can do this!" He was so proud of the work he did.



















Trace is in big boy underware now. He is doing great. Saturday went really well, then Sunday was kind of blah. Monday was great the only time we had a problem was during nap time he had an accident in his pull up. Then today as been great!

Andrew is cute as a button! He loves his little jumparoo. Well he is growing way to fast. He pulls up on everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He crawls everywhere! I do mean everywhere!!!!!!! He loves to eat and will let you know if he likes what he is eating. He will say yum yum after every bite if he likes it, if he doesn't then he will just look at you while he eats it like "Why are you feeding me this?" My mom says he doesn't like squash. He went to the doctor last week and weighed in at 20 lbs, and was 26" long. He is a tall boy!! He might very well take after his Uncle Shawn!! Well any ways I will add pics of the other two latter!!

Great update! - I won no points with AC when I informed him (and Grandpa) that he was not going to lie down on the roof and reach over to pull the staples out of the lights. AC cried and said I didn't think he was a big boy - it was sad! But I was giving an inch so instead he sat on top of the ladder with my hands on him at all times and pulled the staples out. He did the majority of the work - and was quite please with his $1 until mom told him he got ripped off. LOL
