Happy noon years eve!

This morning Cooper and Hank were back, so we got back on our schedule of waking up super early. We took the boys to the adventure science center to play and have their "noon" years eve party!! They played until we heard the announcement that the countdown was going to start. We all gathered under this balcony in an open area and the kids counted down to "noon". They blew confetti everywhere and the kids had blowers and confetti poppers and hats and ginger ale to toast with. It was fun. It was tough with 3 kids. The place was crowded and we lost them a few times. They enjoyed it though. Then we took naps and played a game and Zac and I cooked breakfast for dinner. It was a good day!

They did the science of fireworks. 

And then we played with stocking stuffers and selfie sticks!!

Happy new year!!! 

Meanwhile....

While we are relaxing with only one child, dad and Gina have been at the aquarium with all 4 boys. I'm sure they haven't relaxed at all. 

Single child

Hank and Cooper stayed with Cyndi an extra night and then were passed off to dad today so he can take them to the aquarium tomorrow. So that means it is just us and Quinn for a few days. This morning Zac and I finally slept late!!!! Quinn just came and laid in bed with us and it was such a relaxing morning. Quinn has been so precious. All day we have talked about how precious he has been. He hasn't cried or whined and has had so much fun playing with all of his toys. He is even playing with hanks toys which he never even gets to touch. Zac has taken down the ornaments and the tree and I have cleaned and organized, it's been nice. We face timed the boys last night though. As much as we are enjoying some time with just Quinn, we miss our big boys! 

Pushing Elmo in the buggy and taking a break to watch Mickey Mouse! 

He really likes his chair Santa brought him. 

Christmas at dads

We got up and headed over to dads early  Saturday morning. We got there and of course all the cousins went straight to playing! They just have so much fun together! We had a big breakfast and then opened gifts. Lauren and Ryan brought the game pie in the face. We tested it out on Cooper! Poor kid, but he was more than willing! It was hilarious. Hank refused to have any part in it. Quinn even put his precious face in and smiled so big, but then was not happy in the least when the cool whip was all over his head! Dad dressed up like Santa for the kids. He wasn't fooling anyone. Even Cooper who normally will sign "Santa", said "grandad"!! Sam was hilarious though and would not even look at Santa! We went over to gene and Minnie's to see the dogs and the kids got to play outside for a bit.

Since Hank is the middle child, he got this super cute personalized paper!

Then Cooper laid in my lap and watched Jurassic world!!

He was less than thrilled about being the tester!
