Pensacola activities and Mother's Day

Well, every once in a while Mommy messes up and types before she uploads the pictures. Because of this little mistake, you get to see the pictures first and then read about our week after the pictures. We're sure you won't mind :)





















































We have had a busy week playing at Granny and Grandpa's house and getting to see lots of people. Aunt Kristen came to town so that was a lot of fun. There are lots of pictures from the week including trips to the park, the water, the fountains and even to meet Elmo! As you can imagine Garet was a little scared of him but not as bad as you may have expected. The only bad news of the week is that Kitt had a little fall out of her wagon and we had our first trip to the ER. She is doing great....it was more traumatic for Mommy and Daddy than it was for Kitt. The worst part about it is she can't play in the water for 5 days! Today we celebrated Mommy and Granny for Mother's Day. GAMA sent flowers (you probably saw the picture above) and we got Mommy a gift certificate for a facial. We also made Granny something special that you can see above. Aunt Kristen and Uncle Michael also bought a photo shoot for all of us to share (Mommy, Granny and the two of us for when we come back this summer). Daddy had to go back home today and we miss him already but will have a fun time staying here one more week until he comes back to get us. While we love our Mommy very much and think she is a superwoman, we know there are lots of "mommys" who love us from near and far and take care of us. We would not be where we are if it were not for you, too. Happy Mother's Day to all of you!

Changing scenery.....

This week we did a lot of our normal things but we also changed locations......we went from Georgia to Florida! We went to the library in Atlanta for story time and then went with our friend AJ and his mommy to the park. There are some fun pictures of us at the park. AJ seemed to take a liking to Garet and he was trying to give her a hug in one of these pictures. On Wednesday, Granny arrived to help get us ready for our trip to Florida. Of course, we had a great time with her and did some fun things while she was here. Mommy needed her to help out a lot so she could get her hair cut and also do her final requirement for her school certification. That meant she had to work extra hard but she did great and we had lots of fun. Granny also went with us to our 18 month doctor check up which went well. We are growing, growing, growing and doing great! On Friday we came to Florida. Granny transformed her dining room to a play room for us. You can check it out in the last picture. It may have not been our best road trip down here but we were so tired of sitting in our car seats when Mommy and Granny tried to put us in high chairs. Needless to say we were antsy at the restaurant, only took short naps when we got back in our car seats and then needed some entertainment. Luckily for everyone, Granny sat on the floor between our seats and talked to us and made us laugh the last two hours of the trip. We have been having lots of fun since we've been here. We have gotten to see Auntie Kristin several times. She took us to the park today with Mommy which was a lot of fun. Uncle Mark has come over a couple of times, too. It had been a really long time since we last saw him. He thinks we've changed a little since we last saw him in August! Yesterday we went to a park that has water coming up from the ground. Garet liked it some but seemed a little scared of the water. Kitt, on the other hand, loved it and kept going in and out of the fountains. She was having such a great time. She was moving a little too fast at one point that she tripped and banged up her forehead pretty badly. It didn't keep her down. A minute later, she was up and playing in the fountains. Garet preferred to chase the birds and other things she found in the grass. Today we played in the water some more, although Garet preferred to walk around with Grandpa while Kitt played in the water with Granny. Kitt decided she needed to inspect the tomato plants, too! We also went for a little ice cream treat, too. YUMMY! We don't know what all Mommy has planned for us this week but we know Daddy will come down for most of the week and we will also get to see Aunt Kristen. It will be lots of fun....we are sure of that!
