Staycation Recap ::Part 2::

Hello folks! I'm back again with part 2. Two posts in two days...that might just be a record for me! If you're not a fan of a few too many photos, you might wanna skip out on this one.

Thanks to my oh so amazing hubby, we started many of our staycation mornings with this...

I think breakfast is probably my favorite meal of the day. It's probably because I rarely get to eat it. Generally, it involves slamming down a protein shake on the way to the gym, so these mornings were a special treat. Miss Emma even learned how to flip an egg.

The kiddos always approve of a big breakfast...

Mr. Carson chows down any chance he gets.

They also love berries and whip cream. My kids would both die for that spray cream in a can. If you've got a loud toddler on your hands, give him a squirt on his tray. Immediate silence will come over him :)

Emma spent several evenings with her daddy fishing in the lake. I love that she's so girly, but so outdoorsy too.

We spent some time riding bikes too.

I still can't believe I have a blonde baby...

He's a bit crabbier than Emma was at this age. You probably don't believe me...

Maybe now you do?

I am in love with his little gym shorts. Even if they are on backwards...

Up and down the driveway is another one of his favorite games.

And eating chalk is another.

The proof is in the photos! Maybe I should write, "BUY THIS HOUSE" in big letters at the foot of our driveway. You think that would help it sell?

She's such a good big sister to the bro.

They do have their moments though.

Later on, we headed to the backyard for homemade popsicles and some swinging.

I know I'm partial, but we are so blessed.

We were all drenched. Thank you 110 degree heat! Baths and showers were next on the list for everybody!

Later that week, Emma did some rock climbing.

And bro worked on perfecting his "up and down the stairs" routine. Geez this age makes me so nervous!

We had dinner at Chuy's one night, which is one of my favorites ever. The littles ended the night with Blue Bell Rainbow Push-Up pops. They were both in heaven! The popsicles reminded me of the sherbet ones I used to eat when I was little. Rob too.

And then we acquired a new family member. Meet Sea Biscuit. Can you tell that Miss Emma is in love with race horses?
