Rylan slept in that morning until 6:15 am which was the latest he'd gotten up all week so far. Cinda had to go out of town for work that day so we said our good-byes early to her and then got everyone ready and packed.
We finally got on the road around 9:45 am. Both boys slept for the first hour of the two hour drive. Carter did good after he woke up but Rylan was fussy. He eventually cried himself back to sleep though (he got pretty good at that on this trip, though sometimes the crying lasted long enough for us to think we were going to go crazy).
After a quick lunch and unpacking of the car, we headed over to Monkey Joe's to give Carter a chance to burn off some energy. This one was not as nice as the one in Lexington, or as big, but Carter still had fun. We talked to the owner for a few minutes and she said the Monkey Joe's in Wilmington was one of the originals and the one in Lexington opened recently.
Carter was really brave. He rarely waited for Brian at the top of the slides. I went down this one once and it was intimidating at the top!
Brian hung out with Carter most of the time and I had Rylan. He was happy to chew on is giraffe and then fell asleep for awhile.
Carter's favorite thing was this out-of-order fire truck ...
We stayed a little over an hour before heading back to my mom's house to put Carter down for a nap.
When Carter woke up, my mom had gotten home from work and gave Carter this toy plane that makes bubbles when you shoot it.
Carter got pretty good at shooting off the plane, but he also managed to soak himself with bubble mix! He was a sticky mess when he was done playing!
We had dinner at my mom's house, gave the boys baths, and then got everyone off to bed. It was nice to have a relaxing day to recover from our busy vacation.
