Weekend in Memphis

On Thursday we drove to Memphis and first stopped at Ashley's house to play with Thomas.  After playing hard Kathryn and Thomas snuggled in to watch Dumbo.  Then we attempted "quiet time" at Ash's house.  It went much better than expected Kathryn laid in bed next to me and squinted her eyes shut. 

The "babies" don't look very happy in these but I guarantee you they were!  They were just exhausted!  Kathryn said "I hold Thomas.  He a baby." 

 After "quiet time" we went swimming.  Kathryn was disturbingly unafraid of the water and would not wear floaties.  She walked around the pool and didn't mind if she went under and had to keep being pulled up by me.  She would come up choking and go right back saying "I go under all by myself."  Guess it is time for swim lessons!

Love how in the picture below Kathryn is headed for the deep end and Thomas is chilling by the steps with every inflatable device he can get on!   This is completely opposite from how they normally act.

The next morning we went back to Ashley's to have lunch and visit with my dad.  The "babies" proceeded to completely wear themselves out again. 

The never ending hug. . . .

 They were very excited to have on matching firetruck shirts. 

 

We walked to the restaurant to eat lunch then got the "babies" ice cream and ate it in the nearby park.  Kathryn got tired after the ice cream and needed to rest while Thomas pulled her.  The sun was in her eyes, hence the shorts on her face.

Kathryn giving Thomas a check-up.  She pretends to be Doc McStuffins from the Disney show and sings "time for your check up, time for your check up.  It's ok if you giggle, it will only tickle a little. . ."                      

Kathryn loves her Uncle Will.  She walked up to him and said "Uncle Will I want to sit in your lap."
