Hotel Swimming

Preston had a very good time this past weekend swimming at the Ramada hotel with the Noel's. They built a small "water park" at the hotel in the last couple of years and we decided to try it out and make a night of it. It was a nice "get-away" from the Iowa winter, but it was not fun for Mommy to put on a swimsuit this time of year!

Daddy, Preston, Mitch, and Adrian in the pool. The daddy's volunteered to watch the toddlers in the evening while Mommy and Jennifer had a few drinks at the bar. Preston and Adrian stayed up until 10pm playing! Daddy said that they would run from one thing to the next copying each other and doing things together- like looking at a book and breaking the microwave :)

Coloring before dinner..oops- I mean eating the crayons (Preston) and sticking them up her nose (Adrian)..ha ha

Adrian and Preston sure made a mess beneath them!

Preston loves reading books now. His favorite books are any book with a Sesame Street character in it and his truck books. Aunt Molly especially loves reading Preston the oh-so-entertaining truck books!
We got some good videos of Preston and Adrian at the restaurant in the hotel. Jennifer posted a good one of them making a ruckus in the restaurant. You can click on her blog on the right if you want to see that one or her pictures of swimming. This one includes Preston and Adrian trying to give each other high-fives. So funny- it makes me laugh out loud.
