Play Dates

Since it is our last full week of summer, we decided to have a couple play dates this week with Jack and Cooper. On Monday, we went to a place called "Playground World". We thought this would be kind of an oversized play area for the kids (like you would find at McDonald's), complete with tunnels and climbing and slides. It didn't turn out to be like that at all. It was literally about 10 big playground sets, trampolines, play houses, mini roller coasters, kitchens, etc. Everything was for sale and everything was available for the kids to play on. It was pretty fun and the kids had a blast! We went during "free play" so it didn't even cost us anything for the hour we were there. Jack and Landon took off running when we walked in so I don't have many pictures of the boys together.

The only pics I have of the boys together is when they played on this airplane

Jack kept telling Landon that he was his co-pilot during this....too cute!

After playground world, we came back to our house to let the boys play a little more, ate lunch and then Jack and Cooper headed home and all the boys took naps!

Yesterday, we decided to head to the Cleveland zoo. Our zoo is really spread out so there is a lot of walking and it was exhausting for Rachel and I. She either held Cooper or had him in the Baby Bjorn or stroller, as well as pushed the stroller with all the bags and I pulled the boys in the wagon. All three boys were really good. We were there about 3 1/2 hours and the older boys never even got out of the wagon. They were really good and loved to see all the different animals. Since the boys didn't get out of the wagon, I just have a few pictures of them because they were the same pictures pretty much all day.

This is the only one I have where they were both facing me, although not smiling

Thanks for hanging out with us Rachel, Jack and Cooper! We had a lot of fun this week!
