The crazy thing about 11 month olds is that the second you think you have them figured out, they change something. The boys have been so good in the car lately that we really didn't even think to long or hard about what we would need to do in order to make the drive go smoothly. Well, both Cooper and Caleb decided they didn't want to be in the car after only 30 minutes down the road. Our thoughts are that now that they are mobile they would just rather be crawling than stuck in some stupid car seat. Jennifer unfortunately had to crawl in between the car seats in the back and keep them entertained. There isn't much room and it isn't comfortable to sit back there. The things Mommies do for their babies! We actually discussed the merits of a minivan while Jennifer was stuck in the back seat. Needless to say the trip finally ended and everyone, including Mommy, was glad to see the city limits of Lufkin.
Friday night was all sorts of fun because Jennifer and I got to go out to eat with Big Phil, Ronna, A-Maw, the Root and K-Maw. The Outback has never tasted so good!
Saturday was spent hopping from pool to pool. Mema bought the neatest pool complete with a whale slide and the boys absolutely loved it. The boys spent over an hour splashing around in Mema's pool. After the pool, the boys ate like they haven't been fed in weeks. All that exercise in the pool must have burnt quite a few calories.
After a quick nap back at Gran's house, we were off to K-Maw's for a dip in the big boy pool. Let's just say that the boy's had SO MUCH FUN! Mommy had bought them some race car pool floats and once they realized it was OK that Daddy wasn't holding them, they really enjoyed being pushed around.
The weekend in Lufkin was a huge success. The boys didn't sleep that well and we spent the entire weekend running ourselves ragged trying to see everyone, but there were a lot of good times had with lifelong friends!
