CoCo Keys and Cookies

This week was so much fun! We had a great time at CoCo Keys. Drew loves the water and tore up the slides. He loved the floating river with rafts, however, he loved to go around in his life jacket only. He called it the Nile river (must have heard that from a cartoon) and would pretend the pirates and alligators were after us. He was a little to short for the medium sized slides by a inch, but Brandon snuck him on a few times. If you ask him he will say that was is favorite part. Mckinley was easy to take and the water running put her to sleep and when awake the colorful sights kept her stimulated. Night was not as great, she may have been a little over stimulated because she needed a good cry to finally go to sleep. I was worried that someone would call our room in for all the crying, but it was the little boys that got us called in. They were jumping around in the room and we were asked to keep it down. (they were very nice and we were a little embarrassed)



Mckinley is cooing and smiling more and more. She now will cry whenever you set her down. She LOVES to be held. Facing out to see the world is her favorite. She also loves to stare at peoples' faces. I think she may have a hard time adjusting to daycare. We have been putting her in her crib to sleep. She wakes up much more often in there than her swing. We will keep working on it.

Drew and I made heart shaped cookies for Valentines day. He loves to help cook and I will let him pour things in my mixing bowl whenever possible.

Drew funny story: I was reading Drew a book and it talked about how the dog had to go to the Perfect Pup Institute. Drew stopped me and said, " I don't think its an Institute. I think its a Toot" and then he laughed and laughed (he already is developing boy fart humor)
Yesterday afternoon, I think Drew wanted a little of my attention so he looked at me and said, "How about I be your kid and Kinley be daddy's kid" He makes me laugh everyday.

On a sad note I go back to work on Friday. I am feeling anxious about the kids going to daycare, but I am sure we will all adjust. I will write and let you know how the week back goes.
