A Good Weekend

We had planned to take the boys to the snow this weekend...we also planned it last weekend. Things aren't quite panning out for us so far this winter. Last weekend, Tyler had a pretty bad cold. This weekend the snow reports weren't so good. We didn't want to get out there and have slush. Unfortunately, next weekend we have too many socializing to do, then the following weekend we have a birthday party and David's going to Vegas...when will we get to play in the snow????

In the meantime, we have been enjoying our time together nonetheless.

Saturday, Vincent and I went grocery shopping in the morning. After Tyler's nap, we took the boys to Red Mill Burgers (YUM!) and then to the zoo. It was cold and damp, but we mainly wanted to take them to the "Zoomazium" which is an indoor playspace.

Sunday (today), we drove to the International District, parked our car & rode the lightrail down to SeaTac airport. We wanted to check out the new stop. Then, we rode back one stop to Tukwila & went to McDonald's. Yup, that's right, as in "Happy Meal" McDonald's. We got a hot tip a few months back about riding the rail down there and going to McDonald's to play. I gotta say, it was a total hit with both boys. Vincent made it all the way to the top of the play structure, which was super crowded with bigger kids and really tall. Tyler was the smallest of them all & he crawled all over and climbed on the foamy statues. On our way back to Seattle, Tyler passed out in the stroller & Vincent finished the remainder of his lunch. The only draw back to the outing was that their naps were sort of messed up, but Tyler actually took a third (and long) nap when we got home. Vincent fell asleep on the way back from the rail stop & did not transfer into his bed. Oh well.

We ate tacos for dinner & now I'm gonna go have a Skinny Cow ice cream sandwich.
