Last Monday and Tuesday we drove up to Atlanta with the kids. On Monday we went to Six Flags. It was a lot of fun, but about 1/2 our time was ate up with having Tara. Jeff would go stand in a line with Josiah while Tara, Gaber and I would wait for them to get back. We probably won't take her again until she is older. Even with that, we had a lot of fun. Josiah rode his 1st roller coaster ride, the Mind Bender! Jeff said it was hilarious! He looked over at Josiah as they approached the top of the first hill and Josiah's face had terror wrote all over it! (Jeff can demonstrate it for you sometime :) At the end of the ride Josiah grabbed his chest and said he wasn't riding any more roller coasters! For the main part of the day I stayed in the kid land watching the boys run from ride to ride. Tara even got to ride a couple with her brothers. I never thought I would spend so much time at kid rides while at a Six Flags park. I guess parenthood will do that to ya. :) Later that night we got a hotel room and took the kids swimming until about 10.
The next day we went to the aquarium and the children museum. The aquarium was a bit expensive for us and just not as good as we thought it would be. Not planning on going back. The children museum on the other hand was a blast! There was so much for all three of our kids to do...but poor Tara napped threw most of it. By the time she woke up she had only 30 minutes left to play before the closed. It was funny to see the difference in our boys here. Josiah pretty much stayed at one machine on the same controls the whole afternoon. Gaber on the other hand zipped around the building trying out just about everything! We do plan on going back to the museum, its called Imagine It. We'll probably make it an all day thing this time.
I'll try to get pictures up soon of our mini vacation. :)
All has been going well here. Jeff's sister had her baby last Monday! We have a new little nephew, Brody. He sure is cute too! We can't wait to get down to Florida to see him!
Had to take our van in today. The passenger side window got stuck down. Blah. It will cost us 300 some bucks to get it fixed. Yay. We could have paid just 85 dollars to have them put it up but Jeff wanted it working, I guess I agree. :) 300 dollars is a whole lotta green just to put a window up and down. Oh well.
My parents are coming down here on Thursday!!! I'm so excited! They will be staying until Tuesday. I wish they could stay longer, but I'll take what I can get! The boys are so excited about having mima and papa here. They want to show them their room and toys and yard and bathroom and everything. :)
I think I'm gonna lay down for a bit before I have to pick Josiah up from school. So, that's it for now.
Glad you had fun in Atlanta. Being the parent changes everything, huh!? :) Congrats on your new nephew. Hopefully you will be a good aunt and uncle. We'll see. ....... ha ha!!! j/k :) You guys are wonderful.
