Labor Day in Kansas

We spent all last week in Kansas. I think we are starting a tradition of always going for Labor Day. We had such a great time there. The boys did great and had fun, the weather was nice, and it was just nice to get away and relax. Mimi and Pawpaw had a great time with the boys too.

Mimi found a blow up bounce house at a garage sale and Weston had a blast jumping in it and falling out of it. Honestly though I think he liked turning it off and on more than being in it. Silly boy.

Caleb got to be a big boy and sit in the high chair.....no steak dinner yet but he is ready!

Caleb took a ride in the dump truck....he fit pretty well!

On Sunday all Mimi's side of the family came over. We got to play with Kinley and all the boys. It was a lot of fun. They played in the sandbox, fed the ducks in the yard, and played on the playset.



Caleb got some good loving on by Aunt Erin. She put him right to sleep!

On Monday we went to All Star Sports. It's like kiddie park here in San Antonio. Weston wasn't afraid of anything....he rode them all and loved them all.
Caleb had a good time too......watching big brother :)
Look at those legs!!! I love them!!



Mimi had Weston's room all fixed up for him. She has a toddler bed down there for the boys to sleep in. She even had Thomas the train wallpaper border in the room. He was in heaven and spent hours playing down there with all the trains and toys. And yes, he even stayed and slept in the bed!!! We had to lay down there next to him and rub his belly or ear....but whatever works...right?
On Tuesday, Wyatt came over to play. They are a few months apart but as you can see exactly the same height! They had fun playing trains together. They make pretty good buddies....just wish we saw them more :(
Caleb has fallen in love with his toes! He loves to hold on to them and recently loves to put them in his mouth. He's happy as long as he can hold his feet!
Weston and Pawpaw on the mower....big fun!
Caleb got to meet Pookie.....
Speaking of Pookie.....here is Weston having quite the conversation with her.....this is hilarious. He was watching trucks on youtube and telling Pookie all about it.
That is Weston in Caleb's carseat.....pretty funny looking but I think he was quite comfy. We thought he was about to fall asleep in it.
Weston giving Mamu some kisses

I got to celebrate my birthday up there too. They spoiled me with a yummy brownie cake and homemade ice cream and chocolate sauce. It was delicious! We thought someone was in bed but to our surprise he came walking up the stairs and came out around the corner and caught us eating dessert. So we had to relight my candles and I got some help blowing them out again.
This kid acts like he's 2 going on 60. He drank his morning coffee every morning with Mimi and Pawpaw. He would drink it black!! And he thinks it's good!!! And we wonder why we have trouble getting him down for a nap :)
Making waffles with Mimi....
We decided to stay an extra day, so on Wednesday we got up and headed out to the zoo in Wichita. It was an awesome zoo! There was an entire children's area where you can feed the animals while they are just walking around you.



Weston and the birdie....
Poor little Caleb.....he got to sleep in the carseat and his little feet were poking out :)
All of the big animals happen to be right up next to the glass. It was awesome to see them all that close. Weston loved it!


What a great week! We had so much fun getting to be up there. We love their new house too! It was such a relaxing few days. Thanks for letting us stay! We'll be back for Christmas in a few months! We love you Mimi and Pawpaw!
