Spring Break - Part 2

As promised, here is the rest of our "Spring Break" pictures.
Tuesday we went to the aquarium, which Caroline loves.

After the aquarium, we visited the battleship where Travis was teaching Caroline to shoot big guns and steer the ship

Wednesday was brunch with the Easter Bunny

Followed by some playtime at Jungle Rapids Time flies when you're having fun. We packed a whole lot of fun in a few days and before we knew it our mini vacation with the extended family was over. They left early Thursday morning for the 2 day trip back to Wisconsin.

Spring Break - Part 1

We took an unofficial spring break last week when Travis' family (Grandma & Grandpa, Aunt Donna & Uncle Charlie & cousin Hailey) came down from Wisconsin to visit. Caroline warmed up to everybody quickly and we all had a great time together. They live so far away, we don't get to see them often enough. Travis and I had to work their first day here, but Caroline stayed home and kept them entertained. She showed off her new handstand.And got to ride on Aunt Donna's back like a horse


Saturday was the Azalea Festival and we went to the circus. Caroline was proud of the flower she planted at the Home Depot tent

And she enjoyed an elephant ride with Daddy and cousin Hailey (and some other people)

Sunday we took the boat out to Lee Islands and played in the sand (and the COLD water)
We went down to Myrtle Beach Monday and ate and saw the show at Medieval Times

Spring Break - Part 2 and Easter pics to come later, too many pictures to put on one post.

It's been a few weeks since the last post and they have been busy weeks. Most of our time outside of work has been spent getting our house ready to sell. It's officially on the market now and we hope someone wants it! One of our biggest accomplishments was ripping down wallpaper in the kitchen and bathroom and painting....that was quite the weekend project but we're pleased with the finished product.

Maggie is back in the kennell while we're gone during the day, and Caroline likes to play in it too.

We took full advantage of the warm weather last weekend and played outside as much as possible. She liked digging in the dirt with her cousins.

Caroline is becoming more and more independent everyday, but she still likes to check out "baby" toys when she's around them although she's way to big for them now.

And she's still a messy eater, this is after pizza pasta, yummy yummy!

Mommy's Valentine

Unfortunately Caroline was sick on Valentine's Day, but Mommy got to spend lots of time with her and give her some TLC to help her feel better.

Of course she always feels better when she loves on her kitty cat too, although I don't think the cat feels the same.
Last weekend she spent the whole weekend at Grandma and Grandpa's house and didn't miss Mommy and Daddy one bit. She enjoyed spending time with them and playing with her cousins. We took advantage of the warm weather when she came home and played outside where she discovered how much she loves dirt!

A couple of weekends ago we went to a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. I'm amazed that she isn't scared of the big characters, but she walks right up to them giving high fives and hugs, she couldn't get enough of them. Earlier that same day she did the same thing with the cow at Chick Fil A.
