Our first weekend of summer vacation was a total success! Saturday we went to the Austin Memorial Museum. It is such a cute museum on the University of Texas campus. River loved all of the dinosaur bones the most. He was able to talk to one of the paleontologists, who was a younger blonde girl so we ended up staying there for quite a while as River was full of questions and smiles. Olivia loved how loud her shrieks were thanks to the acoustics of the old building.
When we got back home our owners association was having a carnival at our local park. River and I braved the heat to play games, eat snow cones, and stand in line for 30 minutes for a balloon lizard.
On Sunday we spent the majority of the day cleaning because with a 6 year old and an 11 month old our house usually looks like a tornado came through. Then we went to a friends house for a quick visit and to drop off some baby gear. They are due in September and I can not wait to get in some newborn snuggles. Olivia just simply grew out of her baby stage way too fast!
When we got home it was too late to go to the pool, which was a major bummer because we had been planning on going all weekend. To compensate, I filled up our turtle sandbox and then let River and Olivia play in the water. They had a blast, even though the "pool" has holes in it and will only keep water for about 10 minutes tops.
Once Olivia had enough of the water she just crawled out and made her way across the grass we had mowed the day before. Needless to say I had a baby covered in lawn clippings.
We ended the weekend by snuggling and watching The Spongebob Movie. Overall, I would say it was a great weekend.
With Love,
K'Lynn
