Day 2

Activity 1...Success
We took the boys to the park and had lunch. Cade first ran to see the giant ducks.
It was such a nice day and the boys did great. It also helped that there was a cage around the park with only one opening so Carson couldn't run off.
Plus there weren't many kids so they had the playground almost to themselves.


Activity 2...almost a success.
We played in the back yard with the hose which went really well until grass started sticking to Carson's feet. He didn't like being wet after that.
So after awhile I dried Carson off and took him to pizza hut to get a pizza while Brady and Cade partied in the water.

Activity 3...Success
So at least the day ended really well with pizza, popcorn, and Toy Story 2.

Earlier while we were driving to the park, we sang Elmo's song three times, and it was so cute I had to record some of it. They know the words so well and would get really loud at their favorite parts. The rest of the ride Cade pointed out all of the mazdas, jeeps, and hondas, plus they would say the colors of the cars. Such smart boys!!!

Day 1...Success

Brady and I are watching our little twin nephews this weekend. We survived the two hours we had with them tonight easily before putting them to bed. We took them for a ride and Carson was pretty sad that his dad was not in the car. To distract them until their parents left for the weekend, we took them to McDonalds (which was just an excuse for me to get ice cream. I love McDonalds 50 cent vanilla ice cream!) So we wore them out by playing on the toys and stuffed them full of ice cream. It totally worked to, when we got home we put their jammies on, gave them milk, brushed their teeth, said prayers, and then they went RIGHT to sleep. Not even a peep. Well Carson snored a little by his door, until I put him back in bed, which was kind of tricky since his face was stopping me from opening the door. They are sooooo cute. It is good being the fun aunt and uncle, if grandparents can give the kids whatever they want then so can we! Tomorrow I'll take pictures. Luckily Brady is only at school while the boys should be taking naps. We'll see if tomorrow is a success too.
