Saturday, January 17th started early and ended late. We left for Montgomery at 9am to attend Whit Register’s 2nd birthday party at non other than Looney’s Skating Rink. What a blast from the past, I did not even know that place was still open and it really has not changed much at all. The kids brought their favorite riding toy and got to run wild. Haines had a blast trying to ride Eli Sommer’s bike with training wheels, but he could not quite understand that when you pedal backwards it puts the break on. It was funny! Here is a pic below of sweet Jenni and precious Whit.
Next we headed to Moe’s for lunch to kill time before we went over to Beth and David’s house. We feel like every time we go to Montgomery we are so busy visiting with family that we never get a chance to see our friends so this is why we decided to make a day/night of it. We went to Beth and David’s and saw their adorable kids Owen and Ella.
I cannot believe that Owen is 5 years old, I remember when we went to Montgomery when he was born. Ella is 4 and is a mess, she loved holding Sarah and feeding her a bottle. She will be a great babysitter! I could not believe that we have not seen them in almost 2 years, it had been way too long. We had a great time catching up!
Here is Sarah trying on Ella’s Repunzel wig, which we found long blonde hairs attached to Sarah for the rest of the day from that wig, it was hilarious!
After Beth and David’s we went to Shane and Amy’s house to meet their new baby, Sailor. He was adorable and looked so tiny compared to Sarah. He was born in December and was about a month early. Haines had a blast playing with Amy’s two older daughters toys in their playroom (including Barbies) and jumping on their trampoline outside. We had a great visit and need to get together again soon!
Our last and final destination for the day was to Unky William and Amy’s house. We have not been able to stay with them in over a year so we were glad this worked out (kind of last minute). I love this picture below of Amy holding Sarah, so sweet!
We got to their house around 7pm and William and Clint picked up Tomatinos Pizza that was delicious! We stayed up and chatted for a while and then hit the bed hard, it had been a super long day. The next day Amy left to go to Atlanta to stay with her cousin (since it was MLK weekend) and William, Clint and I took the kids to the park at FUMC when William got back from Sunday school. That park is so awesome! It brought back memories because this is where I had some of Haines’ 1 yr pictures taken.
After we left the park we went back to William’s and were waiting on Mom and Dad to get back from the beach. They went down to Seagrove and stayed at Adelaide and Charles’ so they could find a house to rent for the summer with a realtor. They were successful and I cannot wait to go in July! The plan was for Mom and Dad to keep Haines Sunday night and Clint, Sarah and I would head back to B-ham and pick him up in Clanton on Monday. Of course Haines was over the moon about this. Monday morning Mom read him the story Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss and made him green eggs and ham for breakfast, how fun! After they played awhile they went to the zoo and had a picnic lunch (Haines’ favorite thing to do). He loves to talk about a picnic! He had a blast as he always does with my parents!
Below are some sweet pics of little Sarah from that Monday. Her face has really filled out since Christmas, just in a matter of weeks. She is the sweetest, prettiest baby ever (of course I am biased)!
So, as you can see three busy days with so much to do, there was not any time for naps! Haines was feeling it on Monday though, but easily got back into his routine. I am so thankful that he and Sarah adapt so well!
