The Kite-A-Pult was sent to us by Tucker Toys for free to play with and review. Opinions are our own.Today we took a break from the beach. Andrew has had enough sun for a while and we decided that the whole family was going to take Eva to Science School this afternoon. While she was in class Allison and I took Andrew over to the Woods Hole Aquarium for a little trip. We hadn’t been yet this season. Our trip was actually one of the longer ones that we’ve done and that ate up plenty of time. Andrew was very excited about all of the fish and really liked the touch tank. He was trying to touch one of the fish in the tank. He was shocked when he actually touched it.

After the aquarium we went over to Coffee Obsession for some cookies and lemonade. Andrew was a bit out of sorts and really tired. He decided that the double chocolate chip cookie that he wanted was not that good so he gave it to me and had mine instead. He didn’t even eat all of it which surprised me. So, when we came home everyone had naps. We all needed it. We were out of our regular routine and were all overtired.

When we woke up I grilled dinner for everyone including Shelby and the cousins. The kids were very excited to play together and have dinner together. A test run for tomorrow night when Eva makes dinner for everyone using the skills she learned at Johnson and Wales. After dinner I took Andrew to the beach to try out the kite-a-pult. More info about that after the video below.

Allison and I call Eva and Andrew our Little Loves. It is just one of the many thousands of little pet names we have for the kids. Sometimes I am surprised that they even know their own names. I love Andrew’s little Barn Jacket. He’s got to grow into it a bit though.

We took the kids over to Capron Park to let Eva run around and burn off some energy. We had her Barbie kite and even got it in the air for a while. It was cute watching Eva run all over with the kite too. When I ran with it she chased the ribbon tails and would catch them and pull the kite down. She doesn’t quite get the concept that she’s pulling the kite down, but she has fun.
