The boys and I went to St. Louis to visit my sister, Tracy, for a few days. We had big plans to go to the Butterfly House and one of the city waterparks, but that didn't happen. Luckily, Uncle Ryan had bought a Slip-n-Slide and they had plenty of fun with that. Stella would take a few steps and slip, then get up and take a few more and slip, and so on. She thought it was fun, though. The bugs just eat up her chubby little legs so I made her go in which was not at all fun for anyone. 
We also went to Tracy's country club for a day of swimming. It is just so nice there. The best part for me is that a huge portion of the pool is 3 feet high which means that the kids have a lot of room to play without me worrying about them drowning. Not that I really worry about that, but it's just more fun for them to move around.
Right before we came home, I threw out my back. UGH...I hate that! It's more of a huge kink in my lower back that spasms for a day or two. Needless to say, the 3 hour drive home wasn't very pleasant for me. Well, it wasn't all bad because I stopped and got a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts to offset my pain. Mmmmmmm........

Have you been to the City Museum yet? It is the greatest place for kids AND adults! You should go next time your in town, if you haven't been...
It looks like it was a great time. Sorry to hear about your back. That would make for an unpleasant drive.
