Our Easter Monday White House Visit

Let's see where do I start....???

Well how about I'll start out by saying I have been registering to get tickets to the White House Easter Egg Roll (and Christmas Lighting) since I've become a mother, and I've never been lucky enough to win. This year however I was lucky enough to receive some tickets from a family member who wasn't able to go--so in my mind I/We was WINNING!!!!

This was taken while we were siting on the
 grass waiting in line.

I planned on making it a nice mommy & kids outing, whelp until Anesia decided to ditch us, as she always does. Thus it ended up being just me, Landon, Raziah (my God-daughter) and my mom. We were all super excited, of course with the exception of Landon considering...but I was holding down his excitement.

The day started out a bit late; I guess its safe to say as usual--but this was totally my moms fault (yup she's the blame). Since we ended arriving late we missed meeting up with our family which caused us to missed our time to get in, because our tickets was with them. We had to end up waiting for the next group to go in, which in all was about 1.5-2 hours almost. And of course this would only effect Landon's behavior and it did just that. He started whining, maybe from sitting in the stroller, I don't know, but it seemed like the closer we got the more irritable he became.

This was the best group picture
we were able to get...and check him out...

Eventually he ended up falling asleep right before we where set to enter the actual grounds. But once we went through he woke up and all ____ broke lose. He starting screaming & kicking and was just in a total uproar, after becoming a tad bit aggregated I just found us a tree to seat under, parked the stroller and took him out. And of course I didn't have any snacks in the bag since no food was permitted. I'm not sure if it was too many people, him still tired, hungry or what the case was. However it appeared once he was out and had stopped crying he had more fun pulling the grass out the ground which I told him he was going to get in some serious trouble for doing that by
President Obama and First Lady Michele!

This was our "Cop A Squat" moment!

Needless to say the experience was memorable, although we didn't get to see The Obama's, him having a complete meltdown it was a beautiful day filled with lots of people & plenty of kids dressed in their best Easter Monday outfits surrounding the grounds. I was so glad my mom went with me because Raziah would have been very disappointed with me because I wasn't able to take her around to do nothing--but she had fun with my mom taking her around to the different obstacle courses, they even did yoga out there.

In ending by the time we decided to head out he became calm and wanted to walk and run around, so I let him do just that.
