Sea World

So we are trying to make the most of living so close to Orlando at this point in our lives. Therefore, our children have been super spoiled by going to both the Magic Kingdom and Sea World. Carter thinks they are like his playgrounds and that we can pick up and go at any time. Aren't kids the best? They live in this surreal world. You know, I say let them live in it because before too long that bubble will burst and life won't be quite as magical anymore. So all this to say, we went to Sea World 2 times in a week actually. Because when you buy a ticket you can come back free 1 more time...but it has to be within 7 days. So Carter really did think that he had it made and could go whenever he wanted! Christopher wanted to take him on all the kiddie rides. Poor Carter just goes with it. Look at these pictures! I don't know how they let Carter on this ride??!

Okay... I give in, I will blog!

So in the words of my 2 year old son Carter, "Here goes nothin'". I love reading all of my friends blogs so I thought why not take time to fill them in on the Newlins and the crazy day to day chaos that surrounds us. It will be quite humorous at times so beware. For instance, just today as I was addressing Christmas cards thinking...Man, I have this 2 children thing down...Carter was playing nicely in his room with his trains, Drew was back and forth under my feet and chasing a soccer ball....all is well. Or so I thought. I had not heard or seen Drew in a few seconds it seemed, but that was all it took. I turned around in my chair and he was standing on top of the toy box. Yeah. He is our climber. I had to laugh. Probably not the right response, but it was super funny. Next I got my camera to document, THEN I got him down from the dangerous situation. Oh the joy of having boys!
