So, finally after many anticipated days of arrival..." Nugget" decided to show his face. My sister went in to the hospital on a Monday night and he didn't arrive until Wednesday. His name is Salem, but since he was know as Nugget for many months, I think he has a nick name that might stick.
My kids are very excited to have a new nephew. They are anxious to go see him again.
Bri and her cute little baby finally went home on Sunday... can't wait to go hold him again.
Our weekend plans completely changed due to rainy weather on Friday and cooler weather overall this weekend. We had intended to take the kids to a Royals game on Friday night, and then camping in our new tent on Saturday night. Friday night rained and Saturday night we worried might be too cold for our first camping experience in 2 years.... so we decided to surprise the kids with a trip to a hotel with a small water park... We told them we were going out to eat for dinner and it took a little over an hour to get there. Addy said " It must be really good if we are driving that far" During the day I had been secretly packing clothes for the night, swim suits, snacks etc. Somehow we got it all in the back of the van without them knowing. When we pulled up to Burger King (we wantet to eat something quick so they could start swimming) they were a little perplexed. We said peak in the back of the van and then they saw the swim bag and clothes and became very excited when we said we were going to a new place called Monkey Cove.
We swam for a few hours Saturday night and again Sunday morning. Then stopped for lunch on the way home. We were all tired but had a great time.
Sunday night we grilled out chicken and had corn on the cob and Addy said "this is the best weekend ever" We love these weekends when we can have lots of good quality family time.
We finished up the night by coloring Easter Eggs, because there just won't be any time this week. I work M, W, F, and S night this week, and there is also Swim team, Baseball, and Softball practice and Girl Scouts this week.
