TIC TAC TOE: March 2009

Spring Break 2009

We had an awesome time in Florida- like all vacations it went by way too quick. The weather there was perfect and we did lots of fun stuff with my family. I really took a ton of pictures so be prepared! :)

On our way to Orlando! I was so nervous about flying with 2 kids but they did awesome and both slept the whole way there and back! Talk about easy!

Brayden watchin a movie with his monkey headphones!

Kyle meeting Ty for the first time

JJ and Ty

A little boy time before bed! My boys are so lucky to have such great uncles!

Ok so here is a pic of Tyler at 5 weeks old at the condo! Isn't it so crazy how high he is holding up his head! He actually kept rolling over from his stomach to his back... which we thought was just luck until he did it over and over again!

So I guess no more leaving him alone on the bed!

Sea World Orlando

We went to Sea World in Orlando and had an awesome time! They had a deal going where you pay for 1 day and get the 2nd free so we took advantage of that and spent a day and a half there. It was so much fun and nice to not have to rush around to see everything all in one day.
My favorite part was feeding the dolphins. They were always my favorite animal growing up so its so cool to be able to get that close to them. Brayden, JJ, Kyle, and I all bought fish to feed them, but Brayden didn't end up doing it. I think it was kinda scary because they just popped up so close and had their mouths wide open with all those little teeth inside.
Posing for the camera

Kyle, Brayden, and Guy all watching the sting rays. Everyone was sticking their hands in there and petting them but I was too nervous to...those things freak me out. Isn't that how the crocodile hunter died??

Brayden and Guy at the Shamu tank. He kept swimming right by the glass which was so fun to see him so close. It really is amazing how big he is!

This picture didn't turn out that well but these are beluga whales. I thought it was cool to be able to watch them swim under the water. They were beautiful!

Brayden rode his first roller coaster at Sea World! He was just barely tall enough to ride with an adult so we let him and it actually went really fast so I thought for sure we had just scarred him for life. But he loved it! Here he is riding his first time with Grandpa!

He wanted to ride again so I took him up!

I told him to scream on his way down the big hill but he decided to scream on the way up. It was hilarious to hear his little girl, high-pitched scream the whole way up before the big drop!

Riding a spinny ride with Brayden... I say no to those ones!

me and BB

When we ask him what his favorite part of sea world was he says it was feeding fish to the sea lions! Don't you love his black eye!!

Grandma bought him a cup of fish to feed them and I thought he wouldn't feed them like at the dolphin exhibit. But he loved it and and the first fish he threw in a sea lion caught in his mouth! It was so cute!

We got to meet Shamu himself!

The Sea World park was landscaped so pretty so we all had to stop here for family pictures. My family...plus BB.

Our little family...minus Tyler who was sleeping in the stroller!

And here's Kyle... just being Kyle

Getting soaked in the water

This is how we found BB sitting after he played in the water and had to take off his wet shorts! I still can't look at this picture without laughing!

And here is little Tyler enjoying Sea World too! He was an angel and slept in his stroller the whole time! Gotta love newborns!

Mini Golf and a baseball game

We went to a spring training baseball game at Disneys Wide World of Sports to watch the Atlanta Braves play the Pittsburg Pirates

Watching the game and eating some sunflower seeds

Being a cheeseball!

And here is Tyler at the game...sleeping of course!

This was Brayden's first time miniature golfing and he loved it! I think we'll have to go again soon! The Fantasia course at Disney was really fun!

Grandpa showing him some good form

Brayden's strategy to get it into the hole

Guy and Ty

Brayden at the last hole with all of our golf balls

Downtown Disney and Animal Kingdom

Here we are at Downtown Disney. My mom and I shopped away while the boys all went and played with the legos...truly heaven for Brayden who is a major lego fan!
