Backseat Drivers...

Benjamin and Ada were quite the backseat drivers on our trip. Benjamin enjoys looking at a map and telling us where to go. Ada loves to repeat what the GPS tells us (thank you Grandma and Grandpa for letting us borrow it). You can't help but laugh at these two. I knew the day would come that they would be backseat drivers but I didn't realize it would start so early!

Tuckered Out...

Omaha Children's Museum...

Our trip to Omaha is not complete without a trip to the Children's Museum. Benjamin and Ada absolutely love it there! They are always busy little bees running from station to station but the one area that they both spend a lot of time in is the corn field picking corn. Gunnar even got in on the Children's Museum action. We had a great time and the kids were tuckered out!

Special Breakfast...

We promised Benjamin and Ada that we would go for breakfast at the restaurant on our vacation. They were both excited to get their "special" breakfast food. Benjamin had rainbow pancakes with sprinkles and bacon. Ada got teddy bear chocolate chip pancakes. They each enjoyed their special breakfast and were so proud.

Pool Time...

One of Benjamin's favorite parts of our trip is swimming in the pool. He could swim all day and night if we let him. He also loves going down the water slides at the hotel. Ada much preferred hanging out at the hot tub versus swimming in the pool. Ada will not go down the water slides on her own free will. Once is more than enough for her (currently). Gunnar even went swimming. He hated the bigger pool as it was too cold for him but he was all about dunking his toes in the hot tub. He would rather watch what was going on versus experiencing it. Benjamin can't wait to go swimming again!

Omaha Zoo...

The last few years we have spent the 4th of July in Omaha, NE. We spend a day at the zoo. The kids have so much fun walking and running to each of the different animal exhibits. It's a big day for us as we stay there as long as the kids want which is usually the whole day. We couldn't complain though as the weather was wonderful! Gunnar even got into looking at the animals. We brought the double stroller with us in case of the two older kiddos got tired and we brought the coveted baby sling. Gunnar absolutely loves that thing! We never hear a peep out of him once he goes in there. He even sleeps peacefully in there. Benjamin and Ada did really good at the zoo. It is so cute to watch them pair off and watch the animals and check things out at the zoo.
