It was definitely a busy weekend, one that I am still not recovered from, but am so glad we went. I am also grateful for such a generous and hospitable sister; it takes a special person to invite a crew with 6 combined kids to come and take over a house.
The boys had a blast playing with their cars and trucks all over the house (and me). Isn't it amazing how something so simple can keep little one's occupied for so long? Jackie thinks that we should have attached cleaning rags to the cars and Ashlie wouldn't have to clean this week!
The boys had so much fun hanging out in my sister's awesome saltwater pool that we stayed in the pool until almost 8:00 one night. It literally took all four adults to keep track of the kiddos and they definitely kept us on our toes but thankfully the pool has a graduated entrance that helped us keep them contained and safe.
The second day we all made a trip to the Houston Zoo and had a great time despite the triple digit heat. The Houston Zoo definitely puts the Dallas Zoo to shame and the kiddos had a great time riding around in our caravan, looking at the animals UP CLOSE (too close for my comfort), and making a splash in the water fountain.
Little Man was initially really scared of the water fountain and spent the first 20 minutes glued to the gate. Little Riley Roo took one look at him, marched over and grabbed his hand and escorted him out to the fountain. The foursome had a blast playing and getting soaked with the other kiddos and the mommies were bummed that we didn't think to pack our swimsuits!
