The Boone Family

Bob had training for his job in Charlotte, NC this weekend so the boys and I decided to join him. I had a doctor's appointment early Thursday morning down in Bucyrus and then mom, the boys and I headed down to the Columbus airport. This was the first time the boys had ever flown so I was nervous and excited. When we got on the plane the flight attendant told us that the flight had empty seats and that he would leave the seats next to us open. Amazing!! The boys did great! Landon fell asleep half way through. Carter and I colored, read books, and stared out the window! Carter fell asleep 2 minutes before we landed but it was fine. Mom and I had a boy in an umbrella stroller, a bag, and a carry-on on wheels. We looked insane but it was fine. Friday we went to see my dearest friends from college, Eric and Megan Greiser. They live in Charlotte. On Saturday we took the boys to Discovery Place Kids. This was the coolest place ever. They had things for the boys to climb on, ...

A friend from high school posted on her facebook page that the characters from the movie Cars were going to be visiting a local mall on Monday. After school I grabbed the boys and headed to the mall. Sure enough, the Cars were in the middle of the mall. It was to promote the movie Cars @ that comes out this summer. They had free photos for the kids. I was there by myself so I couldn't get both boys in the photo at the same time-bummer I know. Here is Carter with his two favorite characters!

He loves to kick the ball around outside.

So today winds down the great week of spring break. We have had a great time spending time with family and friends. I am not however looking forward to heading back to work tomorrow...just 43 more teaching days though! Carter has recently become very interested in colors. He will point and ask (in his language) what color and when you say the color he tries to repeat it. He can match and sort things with the same colors. I have this app on my phone called "kids socks" where he has to tap the matching sock to send it down the clothesline and he is really good at it. His vocabulary is growing with words such as : tat=hat, wheels, no mama, mommy, dada , tat way, down, downstairs, cars, and nose. He can point out his ears, head, eyes, nose, mouth, tongue, hands, feet, toes, and hair. It amazes me how much he is learning right now. Landon is a crawling maniac and stands up while holding onto everything. Bob predicts that within a month he will be walking. That day will be craz...
