So this past weekend Carter and I went to Albuquerque for a long weekend since daycare was closed. I didn't realize that it was also Mother's Day weekend until after I booked my flight. We started out the trip right with some Weck's for breakfast and than off to Santa Fe for a new Coach purse. I forgot to take the camera up to Santa Fe so there are no pics. Everyone kept commenting on Hope (Cari's little girl) and Carter's sunglasses. Carter did NOT enjoy the wind!!On Saturday morning Isaiah had a T-Ball game. Go Yankee's. I took more pictures but my computer won't let me turn them around :(Isaiah had some great hits and he enjoyed talking to every player that came to his base.
Hope wanted to help feed Carter. After we got cleaned up from baseball we headed to the Albuquerque Aquarium. They had some huge salt water tanks with sharks, sting rays, all kinds of fish and this albino turtle.
This puffer fish just stayed right next to the glass and starred at everyone.
After the aquarium we headed over to the Children's Museum--Explora. I hadn't been there in probably 12-13 years. There was so much stuff for the kids to do from water to arts and crafts to musical instruments to bubble machines.
So many Isaiahs!!!
These were like life size linkin logs!
Lucky for us, Cari had all the baby supplies that we needed while we were there (which made it MUCH EASIER to pack). One of the things that I have for Carter is an exercauser (sp?) but haven't taken it out as I wasn't sure he was big enough for it yet. As you can see he quite enjoyed himself in it. Guess what we will be putting together this week????
On Sunday, Mother's Day, we headed over to Cari's moms house for some BBQ.

Me and my BFF Cari. Love this girl
Alex and Hope being silly (always up to no good :))
4 generations!!!

4 generations!!!We had a great weekend but it was also nice to come home and relax. Jason even surprised me with a jogging stroller for Mother's Day! Too bad it is raining.....
I realized three important things this weekend: 1 I am so thankful for a husband who shares responsiblity in raising our child as I could never do this alone. I barely survived four days and I had Cari's help. 2. I don't think I could be a stay at home mom. I need my sanity! 3. Sometimes your family isn't related by blood
