Tot School this past week was more like Life School as Carisa calls it. Brennan and I drove down to Williamsburg, VA. My friend Amanda C. and her son Parker went with us. The two boys were excellent travelers!
We stayed at our Wyndham timeshare and the accommodations were great! We had two adjoining units that each had two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, and full kitchen. Amanda D. and her two daughters came from Chesapeake, VA on Monday to stay with us too. So we ended up with three mommies and four kiddos under age 2! It worked out great because the kids (other than baby Michaela) slept on one side of the unit and the mommies stayed on the other.
I said so many times during our four days there that all three of us are blessed with amazing kids! We are very lucky that we all have such good sleepers. What are the chances that all three babies would go down for naps and nighttime without a fuss at all?!?! Truly amazing!
Anyways...onto some pictures!
With little kiddos, you can't travel without toys! Brennan enjoyed playing with his Fisher Price Crawl Along Drum.

I love how you can see his hand in motion in this picture. |

My handsome boy! |
He also enjoyed playing with Adah's bowling pins.
And he liked to "read" the "newspaper" during breakfast!
I wish I had taken a lot more pictures of "learning" activities. But I was just too busy trying to capture some sweet memories!
Our room was right on a pond with a fountain. There were always ducks walking all around the grass. The kids loved watching from the door and going outside to chase the ducks.

Love this girl! |

"Go outside, Rachel!" |
Brennan and Adah hadn't seen each other since October!
 |
They had a lot to catch up on! |

Sorry it's blurry, but I still LOVE it! |
Here are a few shots of wild man, Parker! He provided lots of entertainment for us!
We got up each morning and just relaxed in the room. Brennan still takes a morning nap, so once he woke up from that, we would all load up and go out to lunch and do a little running around (usually shopping). We then came home and all the kids took their afternoon naps. We'd sometimes go out for a little bit in the afternoon too. Amanda C. was our personal chef all week! She cooked us dinner at the condo, so we didn't have to eat two meals out with four kids each day!
This was spaghetti night, hence all the naked babies!
One afternoon we went to the Yankee Candle Flagship store. It was HUGE! It had tons of candles, a Christmas room, and a candy room just to name a few things. There was this show that played every 30 minutes or so and the kids were mesmerized! I mean have you even seen three kids all watching the same thing so intently?
We took advantage of the huge jacuzzi tub and bathed the three kids together!

iPhone photo, so the quality isn't as good. |
All in all it was a great trip with some great friends! It's such a blessing to know that no matter where the Navy takes all of us, we will always find time to meet up!
