We spent the morning being lazy. When Grace went down for her morning nap, Abby wanted to go explore the resort grounds. So I grabbed her hand and off we went. We found so much! There were little lizards, shuffleboard, basketball courts, 2 swimming pools, a fitness center, little palm trees, hammocks, and even a kid play center. By the time we got home, I was tired, but Abby apparently had more energy because she jumped into the whirlpool tub. And as soon as Grace could whip her clothes off, she joined her.
Then we had lunch and Abby wanted to go exploring again. This time we took the shuttle bus to the resort next door that is connected to ours. All I can say is WHOA! This place was awesome. There were 4 heated pools with water slides, water fountains and even a small kiddie pool that would be perfect for Grace. I'm sure we'll head over there later this week.
When we got back, I was given the best gift. Dad drove me to the outlet mall and left me there. Alone. Yes, alone. I had an hour and a half to do some shopping without anyone hanging on my arm and begging for a snack, or a diaper change, or screaming out of boredom. I was amazed at how fast I could move without both girls with me. I was able to find a few things and I'm even going to use my new jacket tomorrow night.
After a dinner at Logan's and some fun laughter at home, both girls are tucked in and I'm drinking a glass of wine. Yep, another great day.
Abby absolutely loves the water. I bought her a pair of earplugs yesterday because I'm worried about her getting another ear infection, and she seems to be doing well with them.
These two crack me up. They just love each other so much. I am a blessed momma of two beautiful girls!
Isn't this picture funny? When I took it I thought Grace was trying to strangle Abby, but really she's trying to hug her really tight and giggle at the same time. Now if I could just get her to look at the camera, we'd be all set.
Yes, it's only day two of vacation and my dad is already vacuuming the villa. I don't know why he tries so hard. With two girls around things get messed up pretty quickly. But it is nice to have a vacuumed spot for 10 minutes or so.
On our first exploring outing we found a small playground. Abby was so excited that she jumped right on the slide. Only after she went down it did we discover that everything was still wet from the morning dew. Her pants were soaked. Good thing we have a dryer in the villa!
Here's Abby hugging a palm tree. Florida is so great!
