Since Mike has today off, and we are short 2 kids, we decided to take our kids out to the Kidzone today. Kidzone for those that don't know, is basically the military's equivelant to Chuck E Cheese. They have all the token games where you can win tickets and trade in for prizes, and then they also have a padded jugle gym in the back.
We got there right when they opened and had the place all to ourselves. After ordering our pizza, Mike took off Charlie's shoes and let him go. Today was the 1st time Charlie just ran around the jungle gym needing no assistance from Mike. In the past he has needed Mike to boost him up because he was too short, so he MUST be growing! Kinzie was getting into the playing too. They have a stationary truck that when working kind of rocks back and forth, she played in that thing for the longest time! Also another 1st for the day. As we were eating. Charlie wanted to go play so he left us and Kinzie was sitting there looking around and said Charlie, plain as day! I couldn't believe it, I looked at Mike and said 'did she just...' and he cut me off and said 'yeah you heard that too?' Of course we haven't gotten a repeat performance but she DOES know her brother is Charlie and it was soo cute!
I didn't take the camera because usually it's just Charlie following Mike around while he plays the games, if I had known the kids were going to be so into it, I would have gotten some pics, definitely next time! Tomorrow is another day of errands for us, we get our other kids back either Sunday night or Monday morning, Mike is off tomorrow and Friday so we have a few more days of family time left.
We got some snow today. Nothing stuck, but it was sure coming down pretty nice. Not looking forward to our winter this year. Glad we will be home for a month of it. Hopefully KS winter will be calmer than what is predicted for us!
