Trip to Norman

This weekend Robert had to go to Norman for his first post-deployment drill. Since the army paid for a hotel room, Kylee and I decided to tag along and make a mini vacation out of it. Kylee did really well on the ride up. She fussed on and off and had to be distracted by books, videos, and peek-a-boo games, but she didn't start screaming and crying until we actually got into Norman (and had to wait at the longest red light EVER...twice).
Friday evening Kylee and I met some old friends at Chic-fil-a. Kylee had a great time playing on the indoor playground. She climbed all the way to the very top of playground!! Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture, because I had to rush in after her (a swarm of older kiddos showed up and just about trampled us both).
Kylee and I spent Saturday hanging out with Aprill. Saturday morning daddy came with us, and we all went to the Sam Noble Museum. We had a great time!









Saturday afternoon grandma drove up and came with us to the Little River Zoo. Kylee was super tired, as I was not able to get her down for a nap, but she seemed to a good time. She was in complete awe for the first 30 minutes or so that we were there. I think her favorites were the parrots and the kangaroo. She really got a kick out of watching the kangaroos hop. She must of liked the monkeys too, because all Sunday morning she was making her monkey sound. Our tour guide went pretty fast (I think she was about to get off work); so I didn't get a chance to stop and snap many pictures until our tour ended, and we got a few minutes to explore the barnyard area on our own.





Sunday morning Robert woke up with pain in his side. We ended up taking him to the ER at Norman Regional, where our suspicions were confirmed....daddy has his first kidney stone! Poor guy!
