Disney Movie Up

We went to see the Disney movie UP. This was our first 3-D movie. It was James first movie ever. He is such a good boy that I thought we didn't need a babysitter. Which we didn't but. The second the previews starts I smell a stinky odor coming from James' diaper. When I went to a non changing table bathroom, and set him on the counter, I realized it was a blow out like no other. All over his back and down his inner thigh. Luckily, I pack the house and was well prepared for moments like this.

When I finally got him cleaned up we went in the movie and had Dale catch me up to speed. James sat and watched some of the movie and then ate most of the time. Lincoln watched 3/4ths of the movie and then started walking the stairs. But, I was surprised because he left his glasses on the whole time. Go figure.

We love when Dale can come with us.

Needless to say it was a fun afternoon for the Rex's.

Play-DOH

the simple things are some of the big things to my little Lincoln

Lincoln begs to hold James. I love that they love each other. I will admit this is the time when I freak out. I am getting better. Love the bow tie, Linc!

Such a proud big brother. James loves when Lincoln gives him attention. Unless it's to close.
Loves kisses. Lincoln is my cuddly one. James likes his space.

lets play BALL

Lincoln calls Dale about 3-10 times a day to ask him if they can go play baseball. Half the time he steals my phone and calls him without me knowing. So, here you go Lincoln your favorite thing to do. Play ball.

Dale thinks I am so lucky to go on all these fun play dates. Which I am. But, by far my favorite thing to do with my kids is Carpet time. Lincoln always says the funniest things and James loves the attention on his level. I love, love, love this time of day. I hope I never forget the things that are said at this time, and the feeling I feel just playing on the ground with my kids.

Garden with Madison and Kennedy

The gardens at Thanksgiving Point is my favorite. Lincoln always tells me we are going to Gardens. He is a pretty persistant kid. Like I said what my baby wants my baby gets.

Madison and Kennedy came with us to do some arts and crafts in the play houses. We made a jumping paper frog. Lincoln looks so intrigued doesn't he.

James enjoyed himself as well.

This is the coolest part of the house. They have bees that fly into a tube from the outside of the house and work on a honeycomb. It is so fun to find the Queen bee. The have her marked with a marker.

Taaaadaaahhhhh!

Madison is posing on the Noahs rock.

Aunt Mikki brought some fun toys for the Noahs Arc water feature. It was a hot item with the other kids too.

Lincoln loves to have fun.

Mikki and Matt are so lucky to have these beautiful, sweet girls.

I have to kiss him in public as much as possible because sooner or later he is going to be embarrassed of me. Can you believe that!

Ring around the roseys....

Since, I have had James I get nervous going to the pool with both my boys without Dale. This has been a perfect place for us to go since the water is about a foot deep.

Doesn't James look like he is having the time of his life.

One of my favorite parts of the gardens is the little stations they have. They have a building area, which they played in for quite awhile.

This is what Lincoln built...isn't it beautiful.

They have a music area with a stage and little log chairs. Lincoln loves this wooden xylophone.

This is the arts and crafts area. I love the tower! Does every boy love to build towers or what.

Doesn't she look so cute in her polka dotted bathing suit.

Zoo with Taylor

The zoo is such a fun place to go with my babies. Lincoln loves animals and loved seeing them in their habitat. His favorite movie right now is Madagascar and fortunately the animals that sing "I like to move it, move it" was there. The zoo has an elephant show, a bird show and a rhino show and we missed all of them. That's why we get to go again and try to make it one of the shows.


We brought our own lunch and had a picnic.

In the "Move it, move it" part. There was music playing in the background and Lincoln thought that was so cool.

Sporting my shades.

Thanks to Lisa and Taylor, we got in free. Can't beat that. Don't you love Lisa's little mini clone.

The bears were hilarious. One of them was swimming in the water and got out to try to push the other bear in the water. It was adorable. Lincoln liked that they were play fighting. He kept on saying, "There just playing, Mom." He always says it's okay I am just playing.

Lincoln loved that we saw Marty at the zoo.

I love that James is holding his bottle like someone is going to take. He loves his food.

The Orangutans were just lounging in the summer heat.

Almost Lincoln!

Don't you love that I pack a whole cucumber for Lincoln. What my baby wants, my baby gets.

You can't go to the zoo without the train ride. I was a little nervous going on it with James and Lincoln by myself. I continuously told Lincoln that he had to stay in the train. He obeyed.

I love the ZOO! I think James, Lincoln and I fit right in.

Garden with Taylor

My friend Lisa and I love getting our kids together because maybe one day they can get married and look back on the continuous fun they had with each other. I would love to be related to Lisa. Hint, hint Linc. Okay, maybe I have a couple decades to go before this because an issue.





Another fabulous Thanksgiving Point place to go to is the Gardens. I love the water features they have for the kids to play with. They have activities in the mini houses on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 1000-1200. They do arts and crafts, play games, etc.

Farm with cousin Taylor

I just had a new baby boy and felt a well needed date with my little man, Lincoln. I am so glad the Johnsons live across the street from us. We can get our Taylor fix whenever we want.





I love going to the farm with Lincoln. I get to hear his belly laugh continuously, when he is feeding the goats. You can tell he is loving life when he is at Thanksgiving Point. We got a pass to Thanksgiving Point and I love every inch of that place.





The farm has so many great things to do. You can feed the goats (Linc's fav), ride horses, wagon rides, milk a statued cow, pet all animals ( the donkey is highly not recommend to pet) and lots more because they always have activities to do. The one thing Dale and I love is that they have Monday Family fun in the barnyard. Like scavenger hunts, detective work, cowboy games, etc.


The Rex Family loves you Thanksgiving Point.
