Time Flies When You're Having Fun

Someone told me recently that "the days of parenting are long but the years are short."  Sometimes,  I do agree, but lately I feel like our days have been flying by.  Of course, days spent with two three year old boys are always busy and always an adventure so it's hard for life to feel like it's dragging on.  They also say, "time flies when you're having fun."  These days, I think I have to agree with that statement a bit more...of course I'd amend it to say "time flies when you're having fun...or keeping twin 3-year-old boys alive and out of trouble :-).  Here's a glimpse into how our time has flown this week...

We've taken several bike rides on our new "big boy bikes" to feed the "chicken duck"...


...we visited Blue Door a couple of times for story time and chocolate milks...


Tuesday mornings' Story Time selections were...


and 


Wednesday night's selections included...


and 


Mason charmed a little newborn friend of ours...


(he might just make a good big brother one day after all :-)  )

We got some Omaha steaks which means we had some fun with dry ice...


...3 year old boys are so easily impressed :-)

We got some cool new headlamps from a friend who knows my boys EXTREMELY well...


...they haven't stopped checking everything out with them since they opened the package.  Their favorite activity so far is checking out each others' mouths :-)

We saw Daryl Strawberry at the Jupiter Hammerheads game...


I have a feeling the $25 we spent on the Knot Hole Gang was money well spent...


....the boys have so much fun at the games.  Hot dogs, lemonade, peanuts, balls and bats flying into the stands, etc.  What's not to love, right???

We also had some fun in the gift shop imagining what Mickey would look like with hair...


....we like him better bald :-)  

Of course we had several visits to the park...



...the swings continue to be a huge hit with these two smiley boys.  I love getting my runs in en route to the park.  Exercise for everyone...SCORE!!

The boys also got to check out one of their birthday gifts yesterday...


...sidewalk paint.  Why didn't I think of that??  SOOO fun!!

I did a little painting myself doing some prep work for Abigail's upcoming bachelorette party...


...almost done :-)

We also squeezed in a little train spotting...


...and a little splashing in our pool...


We fixed our pool heater and we're enjoying the warmer temps already.  We're really looking forward to summer and daily dips in the pool.

 Oh, and Mickey and I got a couple of kid-free hours at for a little open house in conjunction with some work he's been doing...


...they even took our picture for us.  How nice!  Those country clubs sure know how it's done :-)

Now we're gearing up for a gorgeous weekend with Leah in town...


...there's plenty more fun in the plans for this weekend and we can't wait.  Yay for exciting weekend plans :-)
