This morning started off extra busy for us. Aaron and I both woke up at 7, which was really later then I should have slept in until. I had plans to help one of our friends and Aaron didn't have to go into work until 8. Connor woke up as soon as I started getting ready, which made it super difficult since he wanted to be held the entire time. I somehow managed to sit him in his high chair and he ate breakfast while I finished up.
I was out the door in less than an hour. Yes, I was rushing and somehow managed to forget my house keys (I'll get to that later)... However, I did remember the sunscreen and the bug spray. I always forget those! Anyways, Connor and I were off to meet our other friend so we could follow each other. We got lost a couple times, but eventually found our way. When we got to her house, the movers were almost done unpacking all her stuff. To keep the boys out of their way, we sat outside and they played with Noah's toys.
They are such sweet boys.
Playing with toys.
We didn't stay for as long as originally planned because Aaron's battalion was having family day at his work. He wanted us to go, and I thought it would be fun for Connor. He was asleep when we first got there, but woke up as soon as we started eating.
Our food... I was so hungry that I had to take a bite before I could snap a picture!
Family day in this battalion consists of each company competing against each other in different events (basketball, softball, soccer, corn hole, and cross fit). The team with the most points at the end of the day gets the "Commanders Cup Trophy" for the entire year.
After we ate, we watched them play corn hole.
Then we watched Aaron play softball.
We took a snack with us.
Relaxing.
Clapping for the wrong team ;)
For the kids, they had a pool filled with ducks and a pool filled with bubbles. Connor really liked them. I preferred the water pool because it was less sticky!
He liked throwing the ducks.
We cooled off with a snow cone.
The bubble pool Connor kept trying to climb into.
It was really hot, so we left after only staying for a couple hours (they were still competing when we left, but FYI, Aaron's company didn't win the trophy). I planned on giving Connor a bath as soon as we got home and putting him down for a nap, but when I pulled into the driveway and parked to unlock the garage, I realized I didn't have my house keys. I searched the diaper bag and turns out, the spare car key (which I don't need to stick into the ignition because it's a push start) was in one of the pockets. I was so mad... that dumb key is the only reason I didn't have my house keys. If it wasn't in my bag, then I wouldn't have been able to start my car, and I would have had to go back inside to get my keys. So what did I do? First I tried to see if I could open the garage in hopes that it didn't latch correctly. That didn't work. So then I called Aaron. He didn't answer the first two times, but finally called me back. Thankfully they let him leave a few minutes early and he saved the day. Connor got his bath and took a 2 hour nap (and so did mommy and daddy). Score! When we woke up I cooked dinner, which turned out amazing!
Connor loved it, Aaron loved it, and I loved it!
We ended our day with a movie and chocolate chip cookies... only after Connor went to sleep :)
