3 Moms take on St. George with 3 Kids!

My sweet cousin Jena invited Blakeley and I on a fun getaway to St. George for the week and we agreed of course! It was such a fun time and a pretty hilarious experience at times! I was a nervous wreck about the 5 hour trip with 3 toddlers. Especially when one of them is my Blakeley(do any of you remember my post about our trip to St. George last year? if not look it up it was a treat!) Any who I prepared Jena and Heidi that my child doesn't always cooperate on road trips and told them-consider yourself warned! Well as it turns out Blakeley and Lily got one look at each other in the car and just thought it was so fun to have a buddy! They were seriously amazing her is a pic of the two little angels in their seats....
And here they are after we turned on that wonder of a DVD player! This thing saved our lives and I mean it! We unveiled this beauty with 2 hours left in the trip. Put in an Elmo DVD and that was all she wrote these two didn't make a peep or even glance in our direction until we were at the condo! I will never go to St. George without it!After the stress of the drive was out of the way we were ready to play, play, play! We had so much fun. We took the kids for a bike ride to the park. Look at them all crammed in the bike trailer, isn't this pic darling!Blakeley, Hudson, Lily
Jena was the poor soul who offered to ride the bike attached to the trailer. We figured she was pulling close to 70lbs with 3 kids behind her. It maybe wouldnt have been so bad but the whole ride back to the condo was up hill. She is a trooper.
Blake had such a fun time at the park she loved the slide and even figured out how to walk up it to the top by holding onto the side. Silly girl!
Three cuties!
We put the 3 of them in the big tub, it was so cute to watch them. Hudson is defiantly a boy. He was splashing around like crazy and kept going under the water and he would just get right up like nothing had happened at all. Blakeley and Lily were a bit more cautious! Blakeley is so happy cause she is playing with Lils bath baby!



Blake reading Hud a bedtime story!
Here is sweet little Lily Cakes!We went swimming at the Sun Hollow Aquatic Center and it was so fun. We were the only ones there on a Thursday afternoon so we took full advantage. We took the kids down the big slide through the sprayers and let them wear themselves right out! There was a kids slide that they all loved too. They are all sitting in it in the picture below!
After the swim we thought it would be fun to get a cute nakey picture of them, needless to say Hudsons package is front and center and slightly pornographic in most of them. But I thought this one was so cute, Lils had put her arm around Hud just as I snapped it. Blake is reaching for the raisins on the towel, apparently swimming made her hungry.

I thought this picture was funny because the light caught Boo's earring just right. She's bling-blingin!


Restaurants were a sight with 3 adults and 3 kids, people practically changed their plans and left the restaurant when they saw us coming not to mention the poor waiters! Oh well, we will chalk it up to memories. We had so much fun the week flew by and before we knew it we had to get back to real life! We had such a fun time and it was so good for Blake to spend some quality time with her cousins! Thanks again Jena!

That is so fun. You guys are brave with the 3 kids traveling. It looks like you had so much fun though. When are we going to get together? I haven't seen you forever. Blakers is a cutie!

Oh Blakely is so cute! I can't get over those pictures of her in her swimsuit. That sounds like a fun trip!

Is that the same suit from last summer? Tayah would be busting out the seams in her's. I am hoping it is a duplicate and I'm not the only one with a way too chunky baby.
