Insta Friday

Well lets just get to it.  We had a very fun week. 

On Friday Audra and mommy had a date the grocery store.  As you can see, she was ready to go.  She had her baby, purse, phone, sunglasses and it even looks like some FUZZ!  I mean who can forget their fuzz!  Weird child.  We finished our morning at Costco where we had hot dogs.  Pops made it back and Hadley enjoyed some snuggles.  And on Saturday morning Miss Audra was getting quite mischievous.  While I was busy feeding Hadley, she very quietly snuck off.  I thought she had gone back outside where she had been playing in the dirt.  But much to my surprise this is where I found her, shutting me out of the bathroom where she was flooding it.  

Audra has been enjoying having having Grammy around and eating all her food.  Her favorite is of course Grammys cereal and her yogurt.

On Saturday we also enjoyed some Zags basketball!

Hadley helped Daddy with some work on the computer and Gavin enjoyed some wrestling.  On Monday the kids, Grammy and I headed to California to visit Uncle Jake & Auntie Hannah and Uncle Cam who had come down for his spring break.  And it worked out nicely because Daddy had several very long days of work.  When we arrived at the "HO-tel" (as Gavin calls it), the kids were quite the big helpers getting all our stuff to the room.  Gavin pulled Grammy's bag all the way across the parking lot and into the hotel and up the elevator to the our room.  And when we left, he did the same.  He was a very big helper.

And also a big helper with Miss Hadley.  He loves to sing to her when she crys.  Gavin was ready for the California sun with his glasses in tow.  On Tuesday we went and picked up Uncle Cam and grabbed some lunch from Chickfila to take to the park.  It was a beautiful day.

We ate lunch and then the kids played on the playground and then we headed over to the train.  Here's the crew on the train ready for departure.

And then we headed out to get some yogurt!  We love us some yogurt!  And then back to Jake and Hannah for some relaxation and Muppets!!

Gavin hung out in the playpen to keep her company.  On Wednesday we went to Coffee Bean to visit Auntie Hannah at work.  She made us some yummy drinks!  Thanks Auntie Hannah!

And then we headed to the beach with Uncle Came.  This was the kids, well actually Gavin has been once before but a really long time ago and I'm sure he wouldn't remember, so Audra's first time to the beach.  They loved it.  Audra sat in one place most of the day, in the sand and played and played with her bucket and measuring cups that Grammy bought.  And Gavin loved the water.  Uncle Cam and him enjoyed jumping over the waves.  By the end he was quite cold.  I have to say, the water was quite icy, but he loved it.  Then in the evening we met up with Uncle Jake and Auntie Hannah for dinner at Red Robin.  And ended with some tossing of pennies into the fountain.

While Hadley was fast asleep.  Thank you Auntie Hannah and Uncle Jake for hanging out with us and letting us destroy your apartment with toys.  We had a wonderful time.  And thank you Uncle Came for all the fun! Gavin enjoyed having you around to keep him company.  At our hotel there was a stream and pond and the kids quite enjoyed finding the Koi fish and turtles.  And yesterday we made our trek home and Daddy made it home for dinner!  The kids were quite excited to see Daddy and spend some time with him before bedtime.

And that was our busy, wonderful week!
