Jellystone Splash Pad

Today we decided to take advantage of the pretty weather and we took austin to the jellystone splash pad. So much fun! He had a great time and even rode down the big water slide all by himself. He was so proud. We are trying to get all our things in we wanted to do this smmer since we are running out of weekends before the summer is over. Anyways hope you enjoy the pics and it is so worth the short drive out there!!
All the fun stuff to do! There is also a swimming pool, lake, putt putt, and playgroung area. We are going to spend the weekend there in a cabin in October. It will be his first camping experience! But with air condition and TV (my kind of camping)


Coming down the slide with Daddy. Mommy and Daddy took turns until I got brave and wanted to do it all by myself!



Austin climbing up the rope ladder (which us parent could not get up for some reason) and Hayes watching out below for him.


At the top after all that climbing!




Elmo LIVE

Last night we took austin to see Sesame Street Live at the Colliseum and it was Great! We were front and center on the first row and Austin watched the whole thing. His face was priceless when they came out for the first time. It was great family fun and he was so good we will definitely be getting ticket if anything else comes in town. Here are some pictures from the night!

Austin in his seat (this is how close to the stage we were) watching intently as the decide where to plant elmos sunflower-- too cute! The character also came out into the audience and austin got high fivesm from the characters.

Austin and Zachary eating their popcorn at intermission. It was austin's first time to have pop corn b/c I have been scared to give it to him b/c we see kids choke on it but he did great. Looking back though, had he had a choking episode I am sure I wouldn't have wanted it to be on the front row at Elmo Live!
Mesmerized as they were introducing the characters! Bert and Cookie Monster are his favorites by far!!




Our sweet boys!!

Growing uo TOO Fast

Well all I can say is they really do grow up too fast. Austin went for his 18 month check up ( a month and a half late) but anyways we are 50% height and 50% weight, healthy and done with shots for a while. Yeah!! He is getting bigger everyday, saying more and more words and LOVES BASEBALL. He only wants to play with his baseball toys. We decided to do his big boy room in sports and got some cute stuff for it this weekend. He got so excited and just kept yelling baseball!! Anyways he also recently got his 5th haircut (only secod at a real haircut salon) and they did a great job especially since he was not very cooperative. I wanted to get some pics but literally we were holding him down and the camera idea went out the window!! Anyways we are all good enjoying this phase (except the tantrums). Here are some pics over the past week! Above is austin post ice cream sandwhich doing his thinking pose from Blue's Clues-- too cute!


My sweet baby pre haircut! He knows just how to melt his mommy's heart!

Saying cheese for the camera!


Post haircut looking so grown up!!



Enjoying my ice cream at dairy queen with mommy the day I had my 18 month shots!!



Easily Amused

Okay so I have discovered this place in Ridgeland where you can go drink wine and paint. I love it. It is called Easily Amused and it is a fun outing that I conned my mom and husband into going to and they loved it. My mom and I painted the cross you see above and they went step by step over how to paint it. It was great. Corey and I went with some frinds of ours to date night and got to do Picasso style portraits of each other. It was so funny and the gys were great sports. Here are some pics from my nights there, I am sure there will be many other nghts!

Mom and me ready to paint!!

The guys were such good sports!! We just told them they got to BYOB and they were in!!



Our Picasso style portraits of each other!! It was kinda hard b/c they gave not much direction!!
