What an exciting day! We started out the day by taking daddydoodle to work downtown and then it was off to the Itty Bitty Beach Party - hosted by the City at one of our favorite swimming pools! The boys had a fantastic time playing in the water; and of course - SWIMMING! Our cousin Landon also joined us with his mom, Katie! We were so excited to see them and all play together! You should see Landon swim... he's two, just like Luisy; but has NO fear of the water! He wears his life vest and jumps right into the pool, goes under the water, and goes on swimming! He's such a star!

After swimming for about 2 hours, we went to the park that is located right ouside of the pool and found a nice table in the shade and had a picnic. We brought our own sandwiches, crackers, and melon. What a nice lunch we had! Luisy and Christian REALLY enjoyed their picnic... They were both asleep in the truck about 10 minutes into our drive home.

After naps were finished, we packed up again and picked up daddydoodle from his office... After the office, we went and visited what will be the boys new "school". It is an in-home daycare that is located about half-way between our house and downtown... it is a beautiful home, with two very nice ladies running the service - they are a mother and daughter team... We'll post pictures once they get started! So - obviously, mommy is going back to work... sigh.
Don't get me wrong, we are all very excited to start a new journey in our lives!

After visiting our new school, we went out to dinner at a fun place. Christian enjoyed trying to eat a really hard bread roll (bought mommy and daddy time to eat their dinner!) and Luis had a quesadilla, fruit and of course, and ice cream sundae. And, as Christian CANNOT be left out of anything, he also enjoyed a large portion of the ice cream! Going out to dinner with two little guys is sometimes like conducting a three-ring circus!

Luis' quote of the day, "Oh, MOM! Did you see that? Did you see that bug?!" - Luis saw a grasshopper outside at the park and was just beside himself with excitement, and maybe even a little fear :0)

Christian's quote of the day, "EEEEEEEEHHHHH!!!!!!!" - Squealed triumphently as he held onto a fire truck that Luisy was trying to take away from him... Christian is really starting to stand his ground!
