CHOM

The boys and I went to CHOM- Children's Hands-on Museum- for the first time on Wednesday. I really don't know why we hadn't been there before but we loved it! We attended the Moving and Grooving class that only lasts 30 minutes, where the boys actually sat down through the whole 30 minutes, well, except David, he danced a little and played with the shakers and sticks, while Anthony clapped at the end of each song and when the class was over he said: "Is it over?" I think he was ready to go and I don't know why because he loves dancing and he's really good at it too. I think he was intimidated. This is why we are definitely going back and try again. 

The museum is located in Downtown Tuscaloosa and has lots of neat areas for kids to play at. My favorite was the bottom floor. Perfect for my two little ones. The boys loved it so much that Anthony had a fit because we were leaving.

If you live in Tuscaloosa, AL or surrounding areas I encourage you to go, specially this summer when lots of parents are gonna be looking for places and activities for their children who are going to be out of school. We are going back and we are getting the Summer Pass, which turns out to be a lot cheaper than each visit to the museum.


 I'll let you with this video of my little monkey loving this particular chamber :)

Beach Bums

We spent a few days at the beach this past weekend and enjoyed every single minute of it. We went with two great friends BJ and Jayma and their baby girl Molly. Our boys and their girl got along really well and they were very sweet to her. They played, swam, built sand castles, napped and a lot more. 

We were playing in the ocean jumping waves when a big wave came and got a bit of water in his mouth. I asked him if he was ok and he said:" Yeah, I think I got a little fish in my mouth" :) Hilarious! 

 

My favorite little girl

"Look at the castle I made!"

 This little boy loved LOVED the ocean. All he wanted to do was play in ti. And for your information he was not scared one bit. He wanted me to leave him alone -yeah right little man, you can dream about it!  

Sweeties

While he napped....

 ...We made a big mountain and tunnel

These are just a few pictures of the many I took, I just wanted to show you a bit from our beach trip. We love the beach very much, the sound of the ocean, the aroma of the air, everything about it is great. I hope we get to go back again this summer...

Waiting...

 He is waiting on his big brother to wake up from a nap.

He can't wait to play with him.

He loves his big brother :)

We love Spring!

One of the reasons we love the Spring season is because the weather is so nice! It is just perfect to go to the playground :) 

Lesson of the Day

Slow Down

• Savor every second, minute, hour.
• When in a hurry, sometimes things don't turn out the way we wanted them, because we don't pay attention to detail. 
• There are a lot more important things and beauty in life, but we often miss it. 
• We could make less mistakes.
• We appreciate the people around us, and focus more on the good than in the bad.
• Notice the importance in the little things.
• We can get one extra hug and kiss.

What else do you thing we get when we slow down?
