August has been full of travels for the Mullen fam! First, we took off to Florida to visit "Memaw" and spend some time at the beach and pool. Wilson loved the ocean and building castles in the sand. But he really liked the pool even more! He has figured out the whole concept of water-wings and was able to jump in the pool and kick his legs and wiggle around... we'll call it "swimming". He is absolutely fearless in the water! And he loved playing with his cousins at the pool too! He and Colton loved to jump in... climb out... and do it all over again!
Isabella wasn't as fond of the beach as Wilson was. But she sure is a bathing beauty at the pool! I have a feeling she'll be as fearless as Wilson! She enjoys putting her entire face under water. And prefers to swim with mommy & daddy instead of floating around in her baby float. Here's a cute one of Isabella and Memaw at the pool.
Next, we headed to Arkansas to visit Micheal's family there and go to a wedding of one of Micheal's good friends. We had it all planned out. Uncle Steven was babysitting both kids while we went to the wedding and reception. Well, when Isabella heard about that, she decided to protest! For the entire hour before we left to go to the wedding, Isabella cried hysterically and would not calm down for anyone, except me... of course. SO, she got to tag along to the wedding with us. Not cool.
But she sure looks adorable here with daddy, huh? They're a good-looking pair!
Here's the Mullens: Grandpa Larry, Micheal & Wilson, Uncle Steven, and Grandma Marie
Then, we headed on over to Oklahoma to visit Micheal's other side of the family. We were able to make it to Sunday lunch at the Morris home. Here's the group shot:
And Wilson enjoyed playing with his Oklahoma cousins, too!
After ALL this driving from state to state, hours and hours in the car, and sleeping in beds other than our own for almost 2 weeks... it's so good to be HOME again! And the kids just fell right back into their regular routines, thank goodness! I was a little worried all the Grandmothers had spoiled them!
