We took off on Saturday for my cousin's wedding in Colorado Springs. The plane ride there was rough. Toddlers do not like to sit. We came off the plane dazed, dirty and tired. But, we were there! The weather was beautiful and we celebrated my grandparent's 65 anniversary on Saturday night. What a wonderful and special accomplishment.
Sunday we took the kids to a park to play, and then had lunch at my aunt Barbara's house. The boys LOVED her cat. They pulled it, pet it, loved on it, fed it, and chased it around. I bet Otis is sleeping good now. Sunday afternoon Sara and I helped the ladies decorate the church for Britany's wedding while my mom and Brandon watched the kids. Brandon had them all dressed for the pool when I got back and we went down to the hotel swimming pool and hung with the family and got some sun.
When we went back up to the room from the pool we changed Christian from his wet items and before we could get a new diaper on him he pooped in the closet. Since he pulled the door closed we didn't see it right away. He was having a great time playing in the poop when we opened the door. Bath time was early and I was able to get it out of the carpet with baby shampoo. Whew. We were supposed to go to dinner with some family that night but the kids were melting down and mom and dad were just whipped.
Monday we took the kids to the splash park to burn off some energy before the wedding (it did not work) and then took them to lunch at Champs. Brock also got an eye infection that day. We were able to call his doc and pick up a prescription that day. We headed to the wedding, saw the bride head down the isle and then had to step out. VERY cranky toddlers at this point. No one has napped, no one had slept through the night in days and it was all creeping up on us. The wedding and reception were beautiful and we got to stay long enough to have dinner and congratulate the new couple.
Monday we went to Garden of the Gods and Manatu Springs on our way to the airport. Wonderful trip since we got to see family but we are happy to be home. Boys slept almost 13 hours last night and I could have done the same!
