What a week!

Last week Eric's sisters were in town and I think we did more in that week than we've done all year! Karin and Katie completely spoiled us by getting up with the kids every morning and letting us sleep late, and spoiled Chase and Siena by giving them lots of toys and undivided attention! Plus Eric and I went out for a movie on our anniversary and got to spend our money on popcorn and candy instead of a babysitter! But that's not all we did that week: we went to the pool at least 3 times, went shopping at the mall for the tax-free holiday, went to Disney World one day, and went to a Rays/Orioles baseball game! Lots of fun!!!

Disney World was hot, hot, hot!

Tea Cups!
Dumbo!
Love the fake smile!
Siena LOVES carousels!
We all loved the Buzz Lightyear ride!


Chase and Siena adore their aunts!

I don't usually hassle with the double stroller anymore... we just took the single BOB and let Chase jump on the front when he got tired of walking. Poor Siena!

She was so hot and tired!
We were waiting for the Country Bear Jamboree to start... Chase gives the best hugs!

This was Chase's 2nd visit to Magic Kingdom, but it was the first time he was tall enough (40") to ride the "big" rides! He rode Splash Mountain twice and Thunder Mountain Railroad! I was a nervous mom at first, but so proud of him for being so brave!

Siena wanted to jump in the water I think!
It rained quite a bit that day, on and off, so Karin and Katie bought cute DRY shirts for the kids to wear home.
Around the house...
More naked pool time...
Shopping at Target... love the double carts there!

Siena enjoyed Aunt Katie's sunglasses

At the Rays game... we waited WAY too long to check out the stingrays, but it was fun!

As you all probably know, Chase LOVES baseball, especially the Rays! You can just see it on his face, he was so excited when we first sat down! He was telling me here about how they hit the ball! And he insisted on wearing his baseball glove, and made Eric wear his too, so they could try to catch foul balls. I felt so bad that we bought tickets in the upper deck so there was no actual chance of catching a ball! Maybe one day we'll splurge on the lower deck for him...

It was perfect that they were playing the Orioles! Our two favorite teams!


Leaving the game after the 7th inning stretch... exhausted!
