Visit from Grandpa and Grandma

A few weekends ago my parents were able to fly out from Spokane for Porter's baptism. It was so wonderful to have them out here again and I know the boys had a blast. Everything from Grandpa and Grandma's early morning wake up calls to the traditional trip to Toys R Us. At Toys R Us Campbell picked out this Spiderman swim gear so we HAD to go and try it out. And what better place than a pirate's lagoon?

Here are Grandpa and Grandma Adams with the boys at the Woodland pool in downtown Lexington.
Coolidge was already pooped out by the time we got to the pool :o)

The baby is still growing!
This summer we were finally able to get the boys into swim lessons and it really helped Porter and Campbell. Mason...not so much, oh well. Here is Porter showing no fear on the high diving board.
And Campbell practicing floating on his back. He used to hate getting his head wet, now he tolerates it.
This pool had just about everything including a slide. Unfortunately it started to rain otherwise I think the boys would have wanted to stay all day.
Hooray for swimming!
Here is our Wolverine/Spiderman. It always amazes me how much Campbell likes to dress up.


We also took Grandpa and Grandma to the "Castle" park. Here are the boys just monkeying around. Porter looks like he's the only one having fun. I think Mason was having the least fun, he was holding on for his little life.
Campbell is actually quite good at the rings and kept going back and forth.

I love this picture of the boys being all cute with each other and I am surprised that my Mom was able to get them to sit still long enough on a slide to take the picture.

Cheese!!!
I thought everyone was having a good time at the park, but I guess I was wrong. Nice Andersen! Always playing it up for the camera.
Well, I know that my Mom and I were having fun. Love you Mom!

I love your commentary on the photos, I started crying from laughing so hard on the picture of the boys hanging on the rings. It really does look like Mason's holding on for dear life! Don't you love having mom and dad visit. I want to go swim at the pirate lagoon too, and Campbell looks great in his spiderman get up. Oh, I mean code name: W-O-L-V-E-R-I-N-E. I love my nephews. And you look super cute in your pregnancy glory. I'm surprised you haven't had the baby yet!

What an awesome post! You got some seriously good pictures. The pics of the boys on the slide and the one on the rings are sooo cute. I do feel bad for Mason though! Funny boy. I'm glad to see that baby girl is growing nicely and I'm waiting anxiously to hear if she's made her arrival yet! I hope all is going well and I've been thinking of you a lot. Love ya!

Great post! I'm glad you had a great visit with your parents! How wonderful that they were able to visit and attend Porter's baptism. I'm sure he will never forget that! Some of the pictures of your boys are so adorable! I can't believe how blonde Coolidge is! I mean the rest have all been or still are blonde, but he is a total toe-head! Too cute! Love you belly by the way! Can't wait to see what she looks like in a week or so, right? Good luck!
