Orlando Trip: Day One

 Travel day for our Orlando trip finally arrived!  Since I was using credit card points for my flight, Erik and I traveled separately.  After eating a sort of gross wrap at the Salt Lake airport, I boarded for my short flight to Denver.

 I listend to a lot of La La Land and some books and podcasts of course :) 
 I had a SUPER long layover in Denver, but it was pretty easy to pass the time.  I walked about 3 miles while talking to my mom on the phone, and ate a pretty long and relaxing dinner at one of the restaurants in my terminal.  Denver has a great airport!

 I arrived in Orlando at about 11:30pm and then Erik and I rented his car and then drove a bit outside the airport to rent my car (he had found a good deal).  Well unfortunately the rental place was terrible and added in a bunch of hidden fees, so after waiting 45 minutes we left without renting my car!
I was pretty excited to see the Disney World entrance sign!
We were both pretty hungry and chose Denny's as a super late (or super early?) dinner/breakfast haha

 We slept in very late (the poor Clingermans were probably wondering if we were ever going to wake up that day!)  And then we decided to head to Disney Springs to hang out!  Our first plan was to watch Hidden Figures at their dine-in movie theater, but when we went to buy tickets we learned that Hidden Figures was playing in a room without the dine-in option.  So, we decided to eat lunch at Earl of Sandwich and then see Hidden Figures in a couple of hours.
 Earl of Sandwich is great!  Amanda and I went here last February, but she was so sick that weekend that it was fun to get a re-do here!
 We browsed around the shops for a bit.

 And then went to the movie theater.

 I had to find an old shot to compare our movie dates.  Those were the good ol days at the Winchester Alamo!

We browsed some more stores.  Erik bought a Harley Davidson beanie.

And then we had a yummy dinner at Olive Garden, and went back to the condo and just relaxed.  It was a great first day of vacation!

One Weekend, Three Living Arraignments

So I don't have too much time to blog, but thought I would do a quick update of our moving weekend.  First of all I wanted to post this pic of Wyatt trying to drink the rain that came last week.  It was the first time it's really rained here since we came to Arizona, and it was so weird.  Hot, muggy, rain.  All packed up and ready to go.  Friday was our last night in the apt (hallelujah!) One last goodbye To avoid having to pay into the new month, Saturday and Sunday night we stayed in a hotel (it was a lot cheaper surprisingly).  Wyatt was having lots of fun jumping on the bed. So Monday morning, as I was showering, I felt like the conditioner was making my hair feel really weird.  Well, that's because I dumped a bottle of lotion on my hair . . . FYI, that doesn't work well. Monday we finally moved in!  I took these pictures after a full day of unpacking and cleaning if you can believe it.  They look really bad, but they give you a tas...

OK, so I guess the consensus of the man giving me the flowers is creepy to everyone.  I think it's one of those times you had to have been there, because he really didn't seem creepy.  In any event the flowers still look pretty in the kitchen :) Wyatt just cracks me up these days.  I think this is just the funnest age when their personality really shows its true colors.  While we were playing in the backyard I tried to get a video of him using his "worker man voice"  It is the most hilarious thing.  He loves to do things to get me (and especially Erik) to laugh. While I was taking pictures of the boys, I decided I might as well get a shot of the baby tucked away (well not so tucked apparently) at 21 weeks.  I really am feeling so good these days, as long as I get some sleep.  Now that we are back on a normal schedule that's a lot easier to do! Jackson has reached to a new stage as well of keeping himself entertained (without the TV)...

Anna loves being by the fire.  It's actually the only time she doesn't fuss if she's set down.  This girl likes to be held! Our little Sumo wrestler A little dream smile :) We finally found some good bunk beds on Craig's List.  Jackson LOVES sleeping on the top.  I'm still keeping Wyatt in his crib, because he does so well in it.  I see no point in rocking the boat when I have a newborn to give me sleep troubles already.  We'll put Wyatt in bunk bed sometime this summer. Sweet girl.  This is one of my favorite outfits that I ordered for her, because it has my favorite color: yellow :) Jackson always wants to hold her.  Last night we had this sweet conversation: Jackson: "Mom, when are you going to wake up tomorrow morning?" (I've been able to sleep in while my parents have been here) Me: "I don't know Jackson it depends on how much Anna gets up during the night." Jackson: "Oh, I hope she doesn't need to nurse tonight...
