good list

Aquadoodle!  This is one of my all time favorite travel toys.  Thx S fam!  It's the Travel Aquadoodle - very lightweight, and easy to carry. KC thinks sliding your arms through the carry handles can turn it into a turtle shell.  J takes his doodle skills to the next level with a portrait of KC layered on top of some traced hands.

Gran and Pop brought this color changing splash pad with the latest obsession around here, Toy Story guys!  It is an absolute hit with a working shower and a slide - Thx G and P!  We heard there is another addition to the bath tub toy fun waiting for us when we visit Ohio. Woot!

The major advantage to packing is unearthing fun treasures, like broken iPods that become great super hero pretend communicators and old cast off tshirts become capes and masks!  To the rescue!

We all enjoy a good performance on the Voice.  It's a good wake up show that we watch on the DVR in the mornings so we don't have to deal with all the commercials (which Aiden has a hankering for lately - lotsa questions about the bizzaro commericals out there).  We are especially in love with Usher and even KC yelps out for "More Usher now Mommy!"
