After the triathlon Carter and Emery skipped town and went to Davenport with Grandma and Grandpa for a few days. My parents had some much needed help because the the cousins came over. It appears the kids had a blast just hanging around the house and even more fun with a day at the Zoo.
Those crazy cousins came up this weekend and their timing was perfect. It was an unusually warm weekend so we were outside the entire time.
It was a great St Patty’s Weekend because the Zaerhinger’s came up. Carter loves hanging out with his three Cousins! I’m sure Emery does too but just can’t express it yet. We decided not to do the 5k run this year but did take all the kids to the Naperville St Patrick’s Day Parade. Each kid came home with no less than 1 ton of candy.
On Sunday, we went to the Sky Zone and did some major bouncing on some trampolines. If you never been here before, you must go! It was a blast for the kids but I also had a great time. Everyone was extremely tired after just an hour of jumping around.
It was party time last weekend because ‘The Cousins’ (as referred to by Carter) came up. Carter had so much fun with them, that by the end of the weekend, he was extremely tired!
We started our morning with T-ball, and then eagerly waited for the arrival of the Zaehringer’s. We spent the afternoon at our community clubhouse to get some swimming in. Braxton and Julie took Carter to swim lessons on Sunday Morning. Uncle Brent and I took the kids to Planes 2 while Julie and Lisa hung at home with Emery!
The Wassmer family doesn’t like to relax, so for the weekend immediately after our Disney trip my sister and family came up to hang out. It was St Patty’s day weekend so of course we did the St Patty Day Naperville 5k. Unfortunately I had a bum ankle because I rolled it when I was in Florida but Julie ran her butt off. Julie didn’t get her best but who really runs a St Patty’s day run to get their best time? It is really for the green beer at the end!
It took Carter a couple days to stop talking about his cousins, he loved hanging out with them. They kept him busy in the basement most of the day… running around playing basket ball or piecing together his train. When it was time for bed time all of them took turns reading Carter a book, what good readers they are! I wish they lived closer so they could do it every night.
