Since we didn't get to see Mimi when we were in North Carolina, and since it was almost Tanner's birthday, we decided to make one last trip to Fort Myers, before school started! We celebrated T's birthday, played in the pool, and went to the bookstore. . .some of our favorite Fort Myers things! Annie Grannie ended up staying in the hospital for a few days while we were there, so we didn't see Mimi quite as much as we had anticipated, but we made the best of it, and the boys were happy as long as they could play in the pool! (And although she may not admit it, Mimi jumped in the pool with the boys one night. . . in her clothes!!!!)
Opening some gifts. . . .first up - the Rescue Bots police station!!!!!
Tanner and Chica, a character from our favorite TV channel for kids, Sprout. Now Tanner can "Squeaka with Chica seven days of the week-a!" just like the commercial says! :)
Tanner surprised me by choosing carrot cake for his birthday cake! He likes carrot cake, but I think what wins him over every time is the frosting carrots on top! (Seriously, have you ever had a carrot cake that DIDN'T have frosting carrots on the top!!!?? :) Carrots are great, but FROSTING carrots are even better!!!!!
