Florida!

All the Joneses went on vacation earlier this summer to Florida!  We had a blast and can't wait to go again.

Candor had to wake up at 3AM so we could make it to the airport on time for our flight.  He was pretty chipper to be up so early.

Candor got to ride on the airplane for the first time.  We packed new cars, books, stickers, and downloaded videos to keep him entertained for the 3 hour flight.  He did pretty well but left some room for improvement. 

We got a minivan rental.  Candor LOVED all the room in it.

We spent the first couple of days in Stuart, Florida at Todd's friend Tim's house.  It was fun to catch up with Tim, Jordan, Maddie and Jack.

Swimming in Tim's pool.

Tim took Candor on his first boat ride.  

We rode the boat to this deserted beach.  It was beautiful.

Since no one else was at the beach Candor decided that nude was the way to go.

We then headed to Ft. Lauderdale to see G, Papa, Uncle T, and Aunt Molly.  

Hanging with G and PaPa at the beach.

Eating apples and picking up chicks at the pool.

We found a playground on the beach!  It was awesome except the equipment was 1000 degrees.

Candor loved playing in the pool and getting thrown up in the air.


At the hotel by our house we were staying in they had a place for the small kiddos called the Kid Zone.  G and PaPa took Candor there everyday to play.






I love this picture of G and Candor at the Kid Zone.  I think Candor is telling G all about the world.
  

We were lucky enough to be in Ft. Lauderdale the same time the airshow was there.  It was so fun to watch all the planes zoom by.

Candor and Uncle T watching the airshow.

Candor thought being in theocean was just ok but he would rather play soccer on the beach. 


We stopped and got this sweet little eccentric lady to make Candor an airplane balloon while we were exploring downtown Ft. Lauderdale.


We got to celebrate Mother's Day on our last day at the beach.  Candor made me this magnificent card!  I loved it!  He also made sure to give me extra attention that day.




Giving G her Mother's Day gift.

G's first Mother's Day with Molly as part of the family!  G and I are happy to have another female around!!



Headed home!  Until next time Florida...

23 Months! (Townes)

My little man is now 23 months old! He is so happy, sweet and funny!  His days are spent laughing and smiling...with only a few tears thrown in there every once in awhile. His new favorite loves this month are dandelions and helping me do things. Townes can spot a dandelion from a mile away and insists on grabbing every single one of them. He also insists on helping me do everything.  Some things take a bit longer to do with Townes helping but I'll take them taking out the trash everyday! His favorite foods is still tacos.  He gets fired up anytime we mention tacos and starts chanting....'TACOS! TACOS!'. He loves soccer balls.  One day he had a fit to try on one of Candor's soccer uniforms.  I have never in my life seen anyone so proud.  He was glowing and thought he was so cool like his big bro. Todd ordered them both a new Liverpool kit which was also Townes first soccer kit of...

Frankenstein

Candor and I did our first craft project.  There were no fights and it 'kind of' looks like Frankenstein so I give it an A+!

2018 Valentines

Townes and Candor had an awesome Valentines this year. In early February Candor and Townes made some sweet little Valentines for some of their friends. Candor then had his Valentines Day Sock Hop at his preschool.  A few hours before the dance I remembered I had signed up to bring cookies so we raced to the IGA and picked up our 'homemade' cookies! We then started getting ready for the big dance.  Once we got to the dance we headed straight to the photo booth.  Candor loved posing with all his friends and we could barely drag him away. Candor then headed for the dance floor.  He danced, played limbo, and ran around like crazy.  All the kids had so much fun. On the morning of Valentines Candor and Townes 'raced' downstairs to see what they got. Candor then got dressed and headed to school with the Valentines for his friends and Ms. Suzi's gift. Candor insisted that we bring Ms. Suzi some chocolate c...
