Play Date at Hattie's

It was cold and windy this morning,so Holly & I thought it would be a perfect time for the boys to visit Hattie and snuggle up to watch her new copy of "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" (a.k.a. "The Chicka Wah Wah Movie" according to Sawyer, who has been begging to see it every time he sees the commercial). Since we hadn't been over to Hattie's house in awhile though, the boys had other plans, naturally. We quickly nixed the idea of calm and quiet movie time, and the boys set about exploring all of the fun and awesome toys that Hattie has. Sawyer is especially fond of her play vacuum cleaner, doctor kit, and anything new and exciting he could find that made noise (drums, trumpets, train whistles, etc.).





For Sutton the highlight of the day was having another opportunity to ride on Hattie's Rody Horse. You can see from the look of pure joy on his face that he has fallen in love with Rody. I can see why he loves it though - it's sturdy, bouncy, brightly colored & just his size. Honestly, since the thing supports up to 300 lbs, I'll admit that I've taken my fair share of turns on the Rody Horse too...and I want one lol. We haven't decided yet what we're going to get Sutton for his 2nd birthday next month, so maybe we'll have to look into getting him a Rody of his own.



Yeeeee-Haw!




Nice Horsey

Sawyer loves it almost as much as Sutton does...but not quite!

We came back home after having lunch at Holly's house, and Sutton went down for a nap while Sawyer and I did some painting projects and calmed down enough to settle in for a little movie time. Holly let us borrow her copy of The Lion King, so Sawyer finally got to see the story that goes along with the singing Simba stuffed animal that Sutton has. It was funny to watch him singing along with songs from a movie he hasn't even seen before, but he was definitely enjoying himself. It looks like the rest of the week is going to warm back up a bit, so we'll be busy soaking up the sunshine, hopefully taking a few more lunches to the park, and getting started on the rest of our Easter crafts and decorations.


Working on a pinwheel for our new garden beds and giving me the "put the camera down already" look lol.
