Thankful Thursday!!!!


I'm so thankful for the relationship that Brody and Phillip have.  This is a bond that only happens with a father and son.  I knew Phillip was going to be a good daddy, but I had know idea I would feel it so much in my heart.  Brody adores his daddy.  Brody always asks his daddy if he can hide.  That means Phillip gets up on all fours while Brody climbs in.  I love this so much.  It's amaxing how secure Brody feels under his daddy.  It's funny to watch because Brody has to fit just right or he moves all over the place until he finds the perfect spot.  Last night Brody asked me to get in with him  That was hilarious.  All three of us all cuddled up together.  Best night...EVER!!!

Happy Birthday Baylee!!!

 Saturday was spent with Baylee for her 8th birthday.  The morning started with breakfast.  Next we had to be at Sugar and Spice for mani, pedi, facial, hair, and makeup.  We stopped by Chipotle for a small lunch.  Then we went shopping on the plaza before our 5:00 reservations at The Melting Pot.  I had never been to the Melting Pot.  Dessert was delicious and I would definitely go back!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY BAYLEE!!!!


2nd Vacation Day!!!

Friday morning Candie, Kenley, Brody and I went to the Dinosaurs Exhibit!  We had a great time at the exhibit.  I've wanted to take B there for a while, but I wasn't sure if he would be afraid of the dinosaurs.  As you can see...He was not afraid!!!  Kenley and B were all over the place.  Brody and Kenley colored.  They dug for fossils.  They colored again.  They went down the slide.  They sat next to each other for a picture.  They played with the little dinosaurs together! 







 The dinosaur exhibit was not as big as I thought it would be so we had to come up with more to do.  Kaleidoscope was closed, so we took a walk upstairs to the crayola store for the kids to color again.  We left the crayola store to do a little shopping then lunch! 
 I'm pretty sure we played at Chick-Fil-A for 2 hours.  I'm not sure if the kids or the adults had more fun playing!  My two days of vacation were a success.  I can't wait to do it again soon!!! 
WHERE IS THE CHOCOLATE MILK KENLEY!!! :)  This picture cracks me up!!! 

Vacation Days!

Thursday September 6th = days of fun!  I was desperate to take a few days off to spend with Brody.  I try to take off as many days as possible just to have that extra time with him that he deserves!  Thursday and Friday were completely booked as soon as I took the days off.  I wanted to do as much as possible with Brody all packed in two days.  Thursday morning started with a trip to the Topeka Zoo!  Carolyn, Brookie, Bo, Luke, Hannah, Brody, and I all got in the car and headed out!  The trip is only an hour long.  All of the kids were great! The Zoo was empty which worked out perfectly for us.  The kids got to run around the entire time at the zoo.  We were able to spend as much time as we wanted at each exhibit.  Brody loved seeing all the animals.  The zoo was small but not too small for 3 two year olds!  I asked him later what is favorite part about the day was and he said the monkeys! 








 Brody loved this bird.  The bird would talk to Brody and Brody would talk right back.  The bird would scream and Brody would scream at the bird.  It was really cute!  Bo even jumped in with the conversation! 


 Oh how we loved the elephant! 
 The boys loved the lion.  Brookie was not a fan.  Luke had to take her for a walk while the boys watched the sleeping lion...Or Simba (Which is what Brody called him) The lion would lifted it's paw and the boys would crack up! 

 Brody telling me to come on.  "Come on mommy, lets go see the monkeys"

 Brody's zebra...I mean giraffe!!!

 The zoo ended with a nice refreshing drink!  All the kids got one.  Brody and Bo switched.  B really wanted the elephant and Bo wanted the Monkey!!! 
Left to Right...Luke, Brookie, Hannah, and What happened to B? :)
