Making memories Florida 2014: Day 3

Wednesday morning we decided to check out a new park and it turned out to be an awesome park.  It had a great playground, lots of space to run/walk/bike/explore.  We saw 3 wild alligators, several turtles, and lots of cool looking birds.  We even got to take a little train ride around the park.  

After the park and Lucas had a nap (most naps occurred in the car) we headed to the beach for the afternoon.  

We enjoyed building (well I built) sandcastles and knocking them down, walking along the beach (Lucas saying hi and bye-bye to most people), and splashing in the water (until it got up our nose or in our mouth...).  

Wednesday evening kevin and I enjoyed a date night and the boys hung out with Kevin's dad and his wife Tammy.  

Making memories in Florida: Day 2

Tuesday we started our day by heading to Napels to visit their zoo.  It was a bit pricey but the boys had fun.  

We took a boat ride around several islands where their monkies live.  

Later that afternoon we headed to the beach.  

Making memories in Florida 2014

We arrived Monday morning around 6:30am after driving through the night.

The boys enjoyed checking things out while the car was cleared out. 

We then headed to one of our favorite parks here.  Nolan and kevin played and Lucas napped in the car.  

We then picked-up a few groceries and headed back for more sandbox playing, napping, and then pool time.  

Some recent favorites

Nolan's bath art!  He loves writing words.  The names by the drawings he wrote without asking me how to spell them.  

Above are pictures of Lucas going "nigh nigh" in the laundry basket and then asking where "nonie" is.

Brushing his teeth like a big boy.  But he will always be my baby!  :)
