Zachary's play date

A couple weeks ago Zachary invited his friend Wyatt over from preschool.  He went to Wyatts house in Decmeber to play and we were well overdue for having him come to our house.  Because I was so sick in Jan-April we are just getting around to having him over. It worked out perfectly because Z had been begging and Wyatts mom had a doctors appointment.  The night before Wyatt came over all I heard from Z was when is Wyatt coming.  He couldn't come over to play fast enough. 

We had the best time with Wyatt in our home.  I was able to get a lot of work done around the house (laundry, bills paid, cleaning, organizing) while the boys played.  It was a delight to hear the giggles and loud boy action noises coming from the basement.  All I could think was in 5 years I would have 2 sons with 2 friends over to play and how loud that would be. It was music to my ears.  They had the best time. 
The boys played Super Heros, Transformers, put on costumes, played with play dough, ate lunch, and then watched a movie.

I texted Kevin while he was at work to tell him that if there was any way possible that he could come home for lunch. Kevin had to see these little guys playing and interacting together. It was so cute. Well Kevin made it home and enjoyed his lunch with Z & W. Wyatt filled us in on all the kids in their preschool class. The stories we heard were hilarious!

Vacation: Day Two

Well I am HAPPY to report that Zachary did AWESOME in is portable crib. Not sure if it was because he was super tired but he just got in there and laid down. It was so nice.
Last night after I blogged we headed out on a walk around the resort. We came across "movie night" or what the resort calls "DIVE-IN". It was at the kiddos pool on a HUGE BIG screen t.v. I guess the idea is you can lay on your rafts in the pool and watch the movie. We just crashed on the pool furniture and watched a little of Napoleon Dynamite. Zachary's personal request was "The Bee Movie"...we're keeping our fingers cross for later in the week. HA!

This morning Kevin headed to his "Dawson Course". Meanwhile Z and I hit the pool. I think we were the first people out to the pool area. People must have thought we were nuts. We lathered up with sunscreen and swam. Zachary loved it. We met Kev on his breaks. After some more exploring of the resort we found mini-golf, paddle boats, several walking trails, and lots of neat restaurants. Since our early morning swim, Z and I have gotten into the pools three more times. He is turning into a little fish. In fact during lunch I could have sworn I saw fins growing out of his back. Another first for Z was that I ordered him a small chocolate shake after he ate his meal. He was in heaven!

After Kev got out of his class, we met him for a paddleboat ride. Zachary really enjoyed it. On the ride we saw a family of ducks, a swan, and lots of plants. After the ride we hopped in the pool for swim #4 for the day. Again Zachary was in heaven. After the swim we got Cobb salads for dinner. We are going to post this blog then head for a night walk on the beach. There is live music out there and the sun is setting. Gotta run. Talk to you all tomorrow. Love you all, HIL
