First Sleepover

Tubbs is becoming a big boy and I had to document his first official sleepover...at our house.
He still hasn't been able to sleepover at a house that doesn't belong to Grandma/Grandpa Baer/Hogue. (And that's ok with me)
It was the perfect week for Tubbs to have a friend over. Bubba is gone camping with Grandma and Grandpa Hogue for 4 days, so Tubbs has been a little lonely in the evenings. (Don't get me wrong, he really likes the peace and quiet but Bubba is his partner in crime.)

Tubbs and his buddy came back from the swim meet and played around the house, waiting anxiously until it was dark outside.
That meant it was time to "night swim." Its Tubbs new favorite thing to do, EVERY NIGHT of summer break.
After night swimming, they changed into PJ's and pulled out the couch in the den and watched "Wipeout." The boys mischievously ran back and forth to the bedroom bringing out ALL of Tubbs' babies. (I guess they didn't want to get lonely in the middle of the night.)

I made Tubbs' favorite snack...caramel popcorn. (I can only find it at Winco, so we are stocked up for the summer) The boys enjoyed it fresh from the microwave.

These boys finally passed out aruond 11pm....and didn't rouse until 8am.
(I wish this happened on the weekends when I didn't have to get up early for work!)

Tubbs picked his favorite breakfast....donuts. Then they headed to see the dentist... Which is his buddy's dad.
But thankfully he was cavity free!
After lots of swimming we took a trip to Smith's Bakery for a rainbow cookie. The little manipulators also talked me into some thumb print cookies.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
