Tuesday in Naples

 

After the rough night before (when he was up for hours not sleeping) Owen finally crashed and took a great nap on Tuesday.

The boys enjoy some alone time on the bed watching the iPad (miracle machine)

Jeff and I got to go to dinner!  It was great.

On Tuesday we went to the zoo.  The boys were excited, can you tell?

They sat side by side to watch the snakes.

Owen picks up a shell and looks closely at it.

Chase looks at the totem pole

Chase tentatively touches the tiger. Doesn't it look real?

Riding the camel at the kids play area.

We got some pop corn, which Owen claimed as his own.

Our family.

We went to a show.  It was a good show, but not for toddlers.  They lasted about 10 minutes and then all the moms and dads with toddlers started to vacate the show.  It was a long time to sit.  It was very hot this day and the boys, in Mommy fashion, were sweating up a storm.  Owen's hair gets crazy when he sweats.

Owen, very appropriately, wears his bugs shirt on the trip to the zoo.

Chase is excited to see the animals at the zoo.

My cute little boys

Mommy and Owen looking at the parrots.

Owen was a little scared of the parrots squawking.

He needed some comforting.

Look at how sweaty Owen is!  We stopped at the bridge on the way to our car and thew popcorn at the koi fish and little turtles.  It was the boys' favorite part of the trip!

This is how Chase wore his hat to keep the sun out of his hair.

Look at Chase's sweaty head!

Owen observes what the fish are doing

We also threw rocks into the pond.  Look at that throw Chase is ready to release!

More Sunday in Florida

At the Seafood Festival we had plenty of fun things to do!

Chase climbs high and Owen follows. This was the second time they had gone up, the first time I had to go with.

The big blow up slide

Chase points at us and waves

 Owen is a little unsure about going down by himself.

 Daddy and Owen go down the slide together.

There was a big bounce house and no kids were in it, so I got to have some fun with the boys.  I helped Owen bounce up and down.

Owen and Chase were wrestling in the bounce house. 

Owen has his wrestling face on-"I'm gonna get you," he says.

Daddy got in to partake in the fun and chased Chase around

Later that day we swam in the pool.  Chase was having a ball with me. We played for ever in the water.  His favorite thing was for me to float on my back while he layed on me.  He rested his chin on my chin and just floated.  It was so sweet.
