Good Times!!

Nothing but fun times for my two little ones lately. Andrew had a 3 day holiday so we decided to head up to KL and just hang for the weekend. We had nothing on the agenda (which made it extra nice and relaxing), just decided to get out of Melaka for a bit. We enjoyed some good (this is a relative term) Western food, some fun pool time and lots of fun playtime.

We took the boys to their favorite KidzGym to play for a couple of hours and then went and did some grocery shopping. Later that afternoon, Andrew and I caught a flick (Night at the Museum 2.…good, but much like the first) while Marte stayed with the boys while they napped. The next day we hung at the pool for awhile and then later that evening had some fun feeding the fish at the hotel we always stay at (I swear the people there feel like family now as often as we see them!!) and then went over to the KLCC play area and had lots of fun with the boys. Cooper loved the swings (E still hates them to this day…he’ll get in one but just for a minute) and the springy rides they have (you know those that just move back and forth….what are those called anyhow?!?!). Evan loved going through every tunnel and slide the park had….and there are tons of them! We then went and had a nice outdoor dinner to wrap up the evening. The kids loved it - they love making new friends with the waiters and waitresses everywhere we go. Andrew and I had planned on taking advantage of the evenings and going out someplace to have a few drinks and listen to some music, but instead (the old people that we are) we ended up just hanging out by the pool, having some wine and reading our books….did I just openly admit to that?!?!? It was too nice to pass up!! The pool is on the 22nd floor of the hotel, which overlooks the Petronas Twin Towers so it’s a beautiful site….not to mention the ambiance provided by the dimly lit pool and all the other city lights…and the wonderfully nice breeze you get that high up. So nice in fact, that Andrew fell asleep on one of the loungers….at 10:30!!! Wild times!!

It was a great time and I so enjoy spending these moments with my wonderful husband and my amazing little boys - you know the relaxing ones where there is no schedule, no agenda…life does not get any better than this! And you know what, they were perfect angels the entire weekend….maybe they, too, sensed the relaxing time we were having !! Now….how do I emulate the weekend so it’s like that ALL the time!?!???!

My little E is finally getting to that point where he is a bit more adventurous. He's always been my more timid and cautious one and now I think he is starting to let loose a bit more! He even made several little friends while we were there...they were a bit older than him so it took him a little more to try to keep up! I heard him at one point saying..."hey guys, wait for me....what's your name?" If you know Evan, that is so out of character for him. Coop on the other hand....my little social butterfly!
