Adventures resumed!

Now that everyone (knock on wood!) is healthy once again, we were able to get out this weekend and enjoy some fun things as a family! Woohoo!



Saturday we did one of our favorite summer activities - we went to the Bristol Renaissance Faire! It was lovely weather, and we had a delightful time. We love dressing up, and getting the kids into it as well. Definitely a less comfortable experience wearing a bodice while nursing, but worth it! This was our 2nd visit this season and we hope to go 1 or 2 more times.



One of Lava's favorite things to do there is spend a bunch of time with the Fairies. He so enjoyed giving them twigs and leaves. They are so awesome with the kids, he just has a ball. Of course Macaroni just loves watching Lava! This was actually Macaroni's first time in the stroller sitting up like a big boy, and he was very pleased. He loved the view (there are endless things to see at Faire!), and was very comfortable.


Lava also was beyond thrilled to spend some time romping around with his beloved cousin, Bucket! And romp they did....



Such a fun day together. It is so amazing getting to do things like this as a family of four, providing opportunities for our little guys to see such awesome things like the Ren Faire! They love getting out and about, and we love seeing them take it all in!

We're still here!

I feel badly to have been so bad about updating, but it has been a never-ending cycle of sick in this house. First Lava got sick several weeks ago, followed immediately by Macaroni (6 month old + 103 degree fever = scary!), and now I've been sick for the past several days with a horrible cold. So unpleasant, and it has definitely limited our adventures as of late! Boo!

We did have our first brotherly bath event, as evidenced below, which was definitely worth documenting. :)



Hopefully the sickies will stop with me, and we'll be back to our normal fun times in the very near future!
