Going it alone!

The kids are getting older and more manageable, so I decided to make a trip to Cincinnati by myself.  We did it!!

I took them to the Chattanooga Aquarium, we ate dinner downtown, and stayed overnight in Knoxville.  I would ask Silas if he wanted to stop driving and stay in a hotel.  He would reply, "Mommy do you want to stop driving and stay in a hotel."  He is such a sweet little guy.

I took them to a hotel shortly after my question.  Anna had to go to the bathroom when we arrived at the front desk.  Well, guess where the bathroom is..  Next to the pool.  So, they both proceed to beg to go swimming.  One problem, no swimsuits.  So, being the pushover that I am, I take them to Target across the street and buy swimsuits.  Swimsuits that will provide us with just for 45 minutes of fun in the pool.  I felt like I was reading "When you give a Cat a Cupcake,"  but the title was instead, "When you Show Kids a Swimming Pool."  They had so much fun, I would do the same thing if I had it to do over again.

Now, settling down for bed about killed me, but they finally fell asleep... I am loving my one on one time with them.  

 
 

I love their sweet interactions.
 
 
 
  

Amazing!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


What a fun day!  Silas' smile says it all.
