Shootin hoops

N's latest obsession is basketball, which he has always loved, but three days ago he dragged his hoop out of his room and into the living room. If you know about my rules, you know I tried to get him to take it back. I even took it to his room myself only to see him dragging it back out minutes later. The space to run in the living room is obviously far superior to the messy floor in his bedroom. So he has been running to the hoop for layups and dunks all day every day for three days. And he was having so much fun and getting out so much energy that I haven't had the heart to put his hoop away since.

A few of my Favorite Things

Nicholas says a few words that make me so happy. They make me giggle every time.
"Nemolade" (lemonade)
"Westerday" (yesterday)
"Prayeria" (play area)

I told you he says Mamma! Also, this thing with the basket was too cute. He was pushing it all over the room like a man on a mission.

Savannah

We were in Savannah for the day because I just love it there. We didn't have as much time as I would have liked, so we just did a couple of things that Nicholas would like and they were awesome.
First we spent some time at Forsyth Park. I don't know if it was because the park was so beautiful, or if it was that the weather was perfect, but today at the park with kids riding bikes, and running around, beautiful water fountains, people flying kites, or having picnics, or reading a book while laid out on a blanket in the grass... I'm pretty sure that's exactly what what is like.
Then after the park, we went to the railway museum and Nicholas got to ride with Daddy on a handcart. Then we rode a steam engine around the yard. Nicholas was in little train heaven! It was a blast. We will have to go back soon.
We even got to stop and see Rich & Sammi on the way home.
Here are pictures (in whatever random order my phone decides to post them)

As a side note, you will notice a pic of a random guy... He was kind enough to take our picture on the back of the train after the ride. I was looking through and apparently he was trying to figure out how it worked and didn't realize he took a selfie. It was the cutest thing ever and I couldn't resist posting it. :)
