We had a great Memorial Day weekend full of great weather, park play, sleeping in, and yummy food. On Monday we took the babies to the Springs Preserve since we’d never been and the weather was perfect. It was nice, but the layout was kind of confusing. The babies did great in their stroller as we wandered around looking at all the plants and such.

We then headed to Red Robin for dinner. We don’t usually eat out with the babies since we don’t really get to eat while out with them. It used to be that we would go to a restaurant, sit down, and then spend the entire time dealing with crabby babies. We barely got to touch our food let alone carry on a conversation. I am so glad to say that I think those days are behind us!!!! We did do some entertaining before the food arrived, but after that it was easy facheesy. The babies both ate so good (I wasn’t worried about Shenzie since she isn’t so picky). Heaten ate oranges! With a fork! He NEVER eats oranges. Of course Shenzie refused them. They had french fries and pizza. And! Jeff and I were able to eat our entire dinners while sitting at the restaurant! That hasn’t happened since the babies were newborns. It was great.

The lowlight of the weekend came Monday night when Shenzie had a big accident. Her favorite game is Runny Runny. She LOVES to run back and forth from her bedroom to our bedroom and then back. She is very fast at everything she does and running is no exception. While playing runny runny we heard a HUGE crash and then of course hysterical crying. Poor little girl did Superman right on a wood box and got a bloody nose and fat lip. Thank goodness Jeff was home or I would have freaked out! The amount of blood pouring from her tiny nose wasn’t a crazy amount, but it was still quite a bit. She is a tough cookie though. She went to bed and slept through the night without a peep of pain and woke up the next day happy as could be.

This picture doesn’t look nearly as bad as it was, but I was too freaked out to get a better picture of all the blood.
