Way too long!

Its been too long. Where does the time go. Wednesday the 25th was our wedding anniversary, 3 years. So the kids went to my parents while we went to "Neighbors" for dinner. That was the first time either of us had eaten there, it was very tasty. On the 28th Trav and I both attended bachelor and bachelorette parties, so Peggy came to babysit on Saturday night. Grandma had a fun night babysitting all her grandchild. The above two events were the first times that Payten was without mom or dad. She did wonderful and the grandparents had fun too!

Almost for got about our trip to the Grand Rios Water park in Brookland Park. We spent the night there on the 21st, the Bode Family joined us, as well as Cody's friend Colton. It was a nice park and we had lots of fun. I would say that I even had fun going down the water slides. Wasn't so sure I loved the idea of swimsuit attire when I haven't seen the sun in months but oh well. Connor was the only one that wasn't sure of the water, Payten slept most of the time we spent in the water park. Next year I'm sure Connor will love it and he'll be the friend to help Payten in the water!

Colton's turn was next to come out of the slide!

Cody has 3 weeks left of hockey. The big tournament starts next week to be honest I love him playing but a season that starts in October and goes til the end of March is too long for us. He made the Level 5 team in January (its an advanced team that certain players were picked for extra ice) We have been doing our best to get him to the extra practices but some days it doesn't happen. So we will have hockey Saturday, Sunday, and Thursdays can't wait for the 29th to come for it to be over. The only bad part is once hockey is over we start ice show practices for mom, good thing its not that much extra time at the rink. The ice will go out right after the ice show (April 16 - 19) and then won't start back up til June 8th.

Payten is getting big. Lots of smiles and laughs. Nights for the most part are going good. She is sleeping at least 4 hours sometimes up to 6 hours at night. Once and awhile she pulls her night owl tricks, guess she has some of her parents in her. Monday night she didn't give up and go to bed until 1:00 am, yes that was the day this week mom was up at 7:00 that morning with out a cat nap what a long day:)

I'll get some pictures up of the kids in the next few days. After practice on Saturday I'll post some of my hockey super star and of the little sister at practice too!
