We had a chill spring break at home this year but it was fun
to get to relax and spend lots of extra time as a family. Monday was the only really nice day and Ryan
had the day off so we headed to the zoo.
It was super packed but the boys had a great time looking at all the
animals and enjoyed a picnic lunch afterwards.
Ainsley was a little sleepy so she was pretty chill and just relaxed in
the stroller the whole time. We also
ventured out to a restaurant for the first time as a family of 6 and all the
kids did amazing. I was shocked. We might just have enough courage to try it
again!
The rest of the week we tried to get outside as much as
possible to get some energy out of these boys.
Monday night it rained quite a bit so we went on a long walk around the
block Tuesday morning and the boys had a blast saving worms. There were
hundreds all over the sidewalk and driveways.
We had lots of practice riding scooters, bikes and walks around the
block. Gavin and Wyatt got creative with
chalk and re-enacted all 7 star wars movies with their light sabers outside
(wish I would have got a picture of this but it kept them entertained for
hours). While we were stuck in doors we
had lots of lego building time, puzzles, racing cars downstairs and fort
building.
Ryan also had Thursday and Friday off so while the littles
were sleeping on Friday I attempted to take the boys to SkyZone to jump out
some energy but that place was insanely packed so we ended up going bowling
instead. I don’t think I’ve bowled since
high school so I was very rusty, not that I was ever a great bowler to begin
with but the boys had a blast and we will definitely have to do that again!
Saturday the boys headed over to grandma Jan and papa Keith’s
for a sleepover so we got to have some friends over to watch the big game and
cheer on the Cyclones. The house seemed
so quite with the boys gone but it was nice to catch up on a little cleaning
and have some adult conversation.
Ainsley was a little social butterfly with her new friends J. Next week is my first full week home with the
kids so I’m hoping all goes well and I’m able to keep them active and busy!
