Birthdays and The Zoo!!

Here is Mimi Bonnie at the park for the boys birthday. TOY STORY 3 of course! Jacob is 6 and Alex is 3 now...WOW i feel old!

We decided a trip to the zoo was in order between my surgery and Jacobs sports we hadn't really done anything big this summer with the kids. So this was Noah's first time at the zoo i think he enjoyed the wagon ride more than anything he got mad when we took him out to look at the animals LOL.

Jacob just HAD to get on the darn Rhino! Trying to get three kids to smile for a picture and look at the same time....IMPOSSIBLE!

We went with some friends and this is Garine feeding the birdies' some nectar I so had to bail on this one because there was too much falling from the ceiling, and i had so much hairspray in my hair i couldn't have a big white glop too.

Baseball Games.

Here is Jacob all dressed for Baseball! He had a blast playing with his friends in the dirt lol! Now were on Soccer, i haven't taken pics of him doing that yet but when i do it'll probably be 6 months after its over before i post them...im really slow.

Spring Break 2010

We enjoyed our cruise for Spring Break, it was mine and the kids first time. This is our pic on top the staircase for formal night and the pic of the Destiny at Turks and Caico's. We had a blast and will definatly do it again...SOON!

Half Moon Cay and the beautiful blue water from our balcony, I think Alex's trunks may be a lil big cuz he wouldn't get into the water to get em wet lol.


Dinner time w/ the kids....happy times.

Poppy Ken and Alex posing with the fish at Atlantis.

Jacob enjoying the lollipop we pitched the mother of all fits for because his brother stole his first one. OMG Drama king let me tell ya.

I loved this, very intriguing center of the casino at Atlantis.

Jacob just loved this lighthouse he made me take like 5 pics of it. (Nassau, Bahamas)

The sunset on our final night, looks like a postcard doesn't it...

Alex was getting caught up in the moment trying to get a hug from his big bro lol!

Our waiter Jimmy, how awesome was he! He was great w/ the kids and we thought the 6pm sit down dinner was gonna be the worse part of our trip and it turned out being one of the highlights. The boys loved him. (so did the adults ;o) )

These were our towel critters, a couple didn't make it long Noah got a hold of one and Jacob tore the scorpion up before i could get a pic. The boys enjoyed coming back from formal dinning to see there "pets" on the beds.

Sports YEAH!!

So here's the first of a few updates, i got sucked into the world of facebook and keep forgetting to update this, oops. So here goes....
Bring on Baseball!! Batter up!!! This sport seems to be going a little bit better....let's hope it continues.

Basketball Game at Eastern HS. I know its fuzzy for some reason...I'm hoping next year is better than this one was, he just wasn't grasping the concept. O'well a work in progress...

A day at the museum.

Ok so we went w/ Mimi Bonnie to see the Mummy's exhibit at the Cincinnati Museum Center and it was really good, Jacob was SOOOO excited and he just was running around wanting to see the next thing we could barely keep up w/ him. Shockingly enough he enjoyed the Omnimax too i was afraid it would be a little graphic and he'd have nightmares but he truly liked it.


Jacob in the Mummy exhibit and Kenny, Bonnie and Jacob posing for me to take a pic.



and what little boy (and big boy) don't like dinosaurs.

Jacob was scared of the astronaut lol he made daddy stand w/ him. All in all though everyone had a great time but man i think that place has grown from when i was in school, or im getting old cuz it wore us all out! They also had the holiday junction still up which is the HUGE train exhibit and Jacob loves Thomas and trains for that matter so it was a great day and a big memory for us.

Hair Cuts and Bengals games woo hoo...

Kenny's work gave him two tickets to the Bengal's playoff game against the Jets ( damn jets) so we bundled up and headed to the game in hopes of a better ending but that didn't happen :o( So till next year! It was a great experience but i'm not a die hard fan either im a football person in training lol. It was very cold and those hand warmer things you shake to activate and the foot warmers dont work as well as expected. Kenny and I had fun though we'd definatly go to a game (as long as the temp is above freezing!) I'd have to think long and hard again before going to the freezer bowl burrrrrrr....

See im a picture taker like crazy but i took these pics as soon as we got there while my hands were still warm. I didn't take that many pics cuz it was so cold! Kenny did take my pic but its so awful its not getting posted anywhere, sorry peeps.

Eskimo Kenny (haha) and this bulletin was hanging on the main gate and i just thought i'd take a pic. The game has been changed and you can see it in the players faces at everygame, a great player taken too soon. Rest in peace Chris Henry....

Took the boys to get there hair cut they were awesome!! No crying or screaming or squirming gotta love that! She gave Alex a mohawk (dont panic it was just his wet hair) and Noah was fine and content as long as mommy's keys were in his hands

MOHAWK!!! lol and of course Alex's after pic look at my little man! So handsome.

Christmas

Yeah im very, very far behind ok here goes...... Christmas at Mimi Bonnie's and Poppy Ken w/ our favorite cousin/niece Miss Victoria and of course uncle Damien and Aunt Veronica. The boys opened up lots of presents and had lots of fun. Noah really liked to sit w/ Aunt Veronica but Victoria didn't really like that idea so much, she wouldn't let mommy outta her sight w/ those boys around lol.

looks harmless enough but Victoria WAS NOT taking any chances!!

Jacob of course loving his Transformers got a bumblebee helmet that makes lots of noise to annoy mommy with and Alex loves his remote Cars car and Noah he just liked the paper and Veronica lol.
