Busy Busy Busy

We have been crazy busy lately...

We returned from a lovely Florida vacation on Wednesday. We went to visit Ryan's grandmother (aka: GG) in Sebastian, Fl. This is where we were married last year, so it was nice to take a vacation there again. I was so incredibly nervous about flying with BOTH girls on our laps via Southwest Airlines, but it could not have gone more smoothly. They both slept the entire way down there!

While on vacation we of course went to the beach, pool, shopping, out to eat and a lot more. Both girls just LOVED the beach and the water. Keegan screamed and cried when we had to leave the beach or pull her out of the pool. She truly was at home in Florida and we can't wait to take them again! On Friday of our vacation we decided to visit the Brevard Zoo. I had found it online before we flew down to FL and was really excited to go. It was by far the coolest zoo I have EVER been to. I felt like I was in a rainforest or jungle the whole time. It was truly amazing and when the girls were not sleeping in their strollers, they loved it too!

The flight home was not as smooth as the 1st, but really no big complaints. The girls were awesome and we finally got some use out of our new portable DVD player that we purchased before the trip.


Then it was on to EASTER!!!!

Easter was both busy and relaxing. We started the day at our house and gave the girls their baskets. Fiona got a couple little toys (all that she could chew on) and Keegan got lots of candy, a toy and some flower seeds to plant in the back yard with Daddy this spring. Both girls also go a cute little picture frame with a mermaid on it, I figured we could put a cute picture from the beach in each of their frames. Keegan proceed to eat candy for breakfast, so we knew we were going to have our hands full later.

After we got ready we headed to my parents house. There they got a kite, candy and the Care Bears movie (MY FAVORITE from my childhood). Keegan had a blast playing outside with Grandaddy and Boo and after we ate both girls laid down for a nap. Since the girls were napping, Ryan and I both ended up taking a nap as well, which was so nice!

After we woke up from our naps we headed to Ryan's grandparents house on his father's side. It is always fun with all the kids on that side of the family. Keegan had so much fun playing with her cousins and got her first skinned knee. She cried for only a second and I took her inside to clean it up and put a Band-Aid on it. No problems until I went to put the Band-Aid on her knee... you would have thought that I smacked her she cried so hard. All I could do was laugh because it was so funny that the Band-Aid was the worst part to her about the whole situation. After a long, but fun day we headed home.



MONDAY WAS A BIG DAY FOR KEEGAN!

We have introduced Keegan to the potty and she actually loves to sit on it! We have not pushed her or really started trying to potty train, but I have been reading about potty training and took the advice of a couple articles I had read and put Keegan's potty in the living room while she watched TV. She immediately wanted to sit on it. So I let her sit there while she watched TV and she looked at me and said "I gotta go Poo Poo" and tried to stand up... I encouraged her to keep sitting and she actually did and then she went POO POO in the potty! WOO HOO.... I know we have a LOOOOOONNNNGGGGGGGG way to go until she is potty trained, but it was so exciting and she was sooooooo proud of herself!




BTW: I will post pictures from our vacation soon. Just have not had time yet. Check back soon!
