Making Lemonade

I'm a mom of 3, happily married and working part time. We live on a tight budget and I like to find creative ways to make it work. I like to post about my family, my crafts and my random thoughts! Enjoy!

Esther and Cody's Excellent Adventure!
Well in this picture it looks pretty boring,but when your very small, ya just gotta take naps in between! We were able to squeeze an adult and two car seats in the back of the JC cella mobile and we were off for a weekend of fun!

Esther took her first plane ride and was very good for both flights!
We went to the gym where Esther got to test out the waters for the first time and Mommy got to wear an uncomfortable purple bracelet so that the illuminatti could find her anywhere in the building!!( too much "24" Cathy!!)

Cody seemed to enjoy the experience as well. Lets just say he left a little of himself in the pool:)
We spent Saturday at the Mystic Aquarium. Uncle matt checks out the sea anenome.

We had lots of fun seeing the beluga whales, sea lions, and penguins!

We ate calzones at Mystic Pizza( where the 80's movie was filmed), while Cody and Esther ate lemons instead. Don't worry, our day didn't end on a "sour note"!
Cody resists the dark side. It's not so hard when your so cute!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Esther tries to out yell daddy.
Daddy won.
All dressed up and fell asleep!
Esther loves her johnny jump up thanks to Great Aunt Cathy.
She jumps and sings. She also just realized she can control the volum of her voice. It makes for some interesting sounds!!

A close up!
This is Esther showing off her ladybug outfit.If you look close, she's sportin' a little bow too!( for some reason it came up twice)
