We are Family

Normally if the boys wake up during the night we just go in and console them and get them back to sleep in there own beds. About 5:30 Sunday morning Jacob woke up and so I feed him and he decided he was ready for the day to begin. Sunday mornings in this house don't usually start until 7:30 so I decided to just put him in our bed with us so I could try and get a little more sleep. Of course when I lay down next to me he falls right back to sleep. I finally get back to sleep and around 6:30 Tucker decides that if Jacob gets to sleep with us so should he. The alarm is going off and I finally get up and ALL the boys are fast asleep. I had to get a picture of this. I don't know if you can tell but Johnny is in the bed next to Tucker.

Summer Days

Inner Harbor and Baltimore Aquarium

After we got the flat tire changed we headed up to Baltimore and went to the Inner Harbor and the Aquarium. I just got this wonderful Phil and Teds double stroller and we have the kids all strapped in and ready to go and we get inside the aquarium and they tell us oh the stroller check is to the right! WHAT? No Strollers Allowed?? Johnny then says, "What are we suppose to do with him"? He is referring to the 5 month old baby that cannot walk yet. The man tells us we can get a baby carrier for him. Yeah right, like I am going to put my baby in a carrier that thousands of people have used. After they told me they wash and spray them I gave in and put Jacob in it along with his Alabama burp cloth to protect him from all the nasty germs that were on that carrier. I was really mad but got over it and we ended up having a great time. Tucker loved all the fish especially when he saw Nemo. After the aquarium we walked around the Inner Harbor and Johnny decided to take Tucker out in a dragon boat. They had a blast. Tucker really loved it. Jacob wasn't allowed to go so we just watched and took pictures. After that we had dinner at a really nice seafood restaurant then headed home. All in all it was a good day.

May Cause Severe Tire Damage

So, yesterday we decided to go to Baltimore for the day. To get from Virginia to Maryland you have to cross the Woodrow Wilson Bridge. We are crossing the bridge and Johnny decides to get all the way over into the right lane so Tucker can see the sail boats in the Potomac River. Johnny then thinks it will be fun if he gets into the emergency lane so Tucker can see them even better. I tell Johnny maybe that's not such a good idea. I can see tons of debri in the emergency lane and if we hit something it may cause severe tire damage. Maybe next time the driver will pay more attention to me.

Grammy's Visit

Grammy got into town last Thursday and stayed with us until Tuesday. We had such a great time with her and wish she could have stayed longer. Tucker still goes around the house looking for Grammy. We can't wait to go see her and Pop in Alabama in just a few weeks.
