Labor day weekend was a four day weekend for the boys and I. We decided to end summer with lots of adventures. On friday, we went to longwood gardens for the morning. It was absolutely gorgeous out and I made the abrupt decision to stop putting little man in a stroller. Just too much hassle for me. I'd rather carry him, chase him, or let his wandering direct us. Call me crazy. Anyway, we wandered around longwood for a few hours. Visited the conservatory. Played in the kids fountains. Saw the giant lily pads. then we climbed the tree house and had a yummy lunch before heading in the car. where they both stayed awake for the whole ride home! WTF! However, little man went right into his crib for naptime when we got home and slept for a long time!
Saturday, hubs was with us and suggested morris arboretum. We packed up and went on another flower adventure. We walked the trails, saw the trains, splashed in a fountain, saw the swans and had another yummy lunch. it was absolutely delightful! We spent the rest of the day napping and playing outside.
Sunday we went up to lancaster and visited dutch wonderland! We had only been there a few times before and big guy was still little both visits. But we had a really good time. WE spent the majority of the visit on dinosaur island, which is new and awesome. The giant sand pits filled with shovels and paint brushes to move sand off of fake dinosaur skeletons is amazing and perfect for five year old and one year olds alike! little man cried everytime we took a paint brush away! Then we went on a little boat ride, followed by visiting the animatronic dinosaurs, and then drove a car around a track. We had some delicious fast food. Then headed over to the water park for some good old fashioned water splash time! Which was awesome. We called it a day and headed over to grandma J's house to hang out and have dinner.
Monday we finally took it easy! supermarket, laundry, and relaxing were on the menu!
