Florida!







We decided to take a spring break vacation this year since we can't take a summer vacation. We are in Kissimmee again - in a very familiar location. We planned a little late b/c of baby news, so we took what we could get. But this has been very good b/c it's a kid-friendly place and we already know our way around. The kids did a great job traveling - and we are having a wonderful time together. The weather has been perfect -- and there are lots of pools and activities to choose from. Here are a few pics of our time together so far... things to note:

1. Myles has displayed a SERIOUS attitude when in the pool. There is an awesome pool that is zero depth, so he has freedom to roam. The minute you even touch him, he completely throws a fit b/c he thinks you're taking him out. It's hilarious! He LOVES the water.
2. Wyatt just gets stranger in the water. He is in a completely different world with his goggles... he spends 75% of his time submersed. AND, he splashes complete strangers... usually older people. He'll just swim over to them and hover... then he splashes them basically until they notice. We have finally threatened discipline if he continues to do that :) He is completely happy to play on his own if Henry has met friends -- and loves to go under water and look at us with his goggles.
3. Henry makes friends EVERYWHERE we go. At the park, the pool. the shuffle board... he just says 'My name is Henry'... 'do you want to play tag?' He has always been like this - loves to meet new people, loves to play with other kids. It's so funny :) He is also displaying so many maturing acts of kindness. He opens doors for people, carries up groceries, helps unload the car, and cleans up the table. It's been a delight to see him grow to do these things on his own without so many reminders.
4. I bought us some goggles for this trip. It is SO fun! We look real dorks, but it's totally worth it to play with the kids! It's also great the boys are so good in the water on their own... we can enjoy sitting in the sun or playing with them in the deep end. A real blessing!
