Airport

Again, I am kicking myself for not signing Cal up for camp this month... but, instead of lamenting that fact, we are trying to get out and about doing something fun every day!

This past week, I decided to take the boys to the observation deck at RDU airport.  If you live locally, you should really do this with your kid. 

Driving there, my car said 101...nothing like playing outside when the thermometer is over 100! But, actually the deck is covered, so we were in the shade, and there was a breeze blowing, so it wasn't too bad at all. 

Cal LOVES watching the airplanes take off and land, and Andy, my wild one, just likes to go go go go go.  So he had fun walking around the deck... until he discovered the ramp at a slight incline that he could run down... no pictures of that one-- I was too busy diving to catch him. 

Anyway, there is a deck where you can see the airplanes, and then a little grassy spot with a "runway" set up for the kids to pretend on, and then there is a little sand pit with a jungle gym.  We did the deck and then pretended to be airplanes while running on the runway... then we were HOT and it was time to go.  We were there about an hour, but it was the perfect way to wear them out!  After we left there, we met some friends at Chick Fil A for lunch!

 Also, can I just comment here about their hair....

Cal sooooooo needs a hair cut! He actually got on this past Saturday-- don't worry! It was SUPER long, but I kinda liked it long....
Andy, on the other hand, we debate about constantly.  He has these curls... and in the humidity, they turn into spiral curls, in the back.  When his hair is dry, the hair looks normal.  But when we go to the pool, the curls straighten and his hair is down his back!
Cal had curls too, and when we gave him his first cut, they never grew back. 
I LOVE Andy's curls and I am not ready to cut his hair yet... but I think it might be time.  What do you think??
Eddie's mom is begging us to not cut it...so maybe we will wait until after she comes to visit in a few weeks....

look! I love to point!

sigh.  seriously???

my life!

 And later that afternoon, Eddie was out of town, so we went to dinner with mom and Jackson.  The boys had the best time together, and we decided to take a picture before going home.  Mom brought Jackson to our house for a bath in my big bath tub and some more play time.  They had a ball!

 See? We are surviving without camps!  But we are looking forward to having them next month!!! hahaha!

PS- I went to Target today to buy overnight diapers and swim diapers.  I left with a FULL cart... and no diapers.  How do you feel about that?
