Our Spring Break "Stay-cation"

This week was spring break for our school district, so Tanner didn't have preschool. We decided to take advantage of our week without any obligations or appointments. We planned a different activity in the area for each day of the week.
Day 1- we went to McDonalds and got lunch. Tanner especially loves their cheeseburgers so he was thrilled with lunch. Then they played on the play place for about an hour.
Tanner devoured his cheeseburger so fast and then waited patiently for Bailey to finish hers. 
Tanner's favorite thing at the McDonald's play place is this wall of computers. They have lots of different games and he loves it. Bailey loves this jump/spring thing. They played really hard and then took awesome naps. 
Tuesday morning our playgroup met at Denny's for a "Superhero Breakfast". It was pretty adorable. 10 kids all dressed up- we got some pretty funny looks and comments- but it was so fun. 
Tanner and Bailey loved the costumes I made for them. 
Super Bailey to the rescue!!!
Tanner as "Captain America"
SUPER KIDS!!! 
The night before our breakfast Tanner told me that if I didn't have a costume then I couldn't come. Well I couldn't have that- so here is the extent of my costume. Tanner loved my "Super Mom" mask. That's what he called it- not me. lol. 
The kids ate so well. They ate their strawberry pancakes in record time. So fun!

On Wednesday we went to "Jump Zone". JZ is an inflatable bouncy house place. Lots of different inflatables and the kids love it. We played for two hours and then ate the lunch we packed. The kids were so exhausted after playing all morning. But they had a blast and that made it worth it, since the crowds were pretty bad. 







Thursday we stayed home but had a "Frozen" movie party. It mostly consisted of snowflake cupcakes and watching the movie. Tanner was so cute. He saw the cupcakes and said "Mom, you always make the coolest cupcakes!". That pretty much made the work worth it. They loved their  cupcakes.  



You've got to love these little faces. 
YUMMY!
We love the movie frozen but I'm pretty sure Bailey mostly just loves the songs and musical parts. She loves to sing the songs. 

Today, Friday, the kids went with Daddy to work and at breakfast with him. I had a doctor's appointment but then after that I picked the kids up and we went to "Barnes & Noble".
We walked into the store and Tanner and Bailey both got so excited. Tanner said "Wow, this place is awesome." and Bailey said "Soooo many books!!!"
We love books.


So we played for a while in the kids area and then read a ton of books. Before leaving both of the kids picked out one book to buy. It took Bailey forever to narrow down the selection. She finally settled on a "Pinkalicious" book. Tanner spotted a "Little Golden Spiderman book" and that was it for him. 
I love their passion for books and the excitement they had at the prospect of getting to buy one and take it home. 

Now our little "stay-cation" is over and tomorrow we are moving into our new house. So crazy. We are going to have a wild weekend. Stay tuned for pics of our new house, new van and eventually- new baby.
