Super Duper

June 3, 2014

On Saturday they were Jake and Cubby, but pretty much every other day around here lately they’ve been Superman and Superbaby!

Saturday

June 2, 2014

Happy Monday all! We had a fun weekend with plenty of outside play in between the rain storms. Saturday ended up being really nice (and HOT!) in the afternoon which was good because we had some fun plans – a birthday party! Maxwell’s friend, Chiles, turned 4 and had a dress-up party complete with the biggest bounce house I’ve ever seen.  My boys decided to go as pirates, specifically as Jake and Cubby!

The party was outside and did I mention how HOT it was Saturday afternoon?  Well, it was.  The kids didn’t seem to mind – they just bounced their little hearts out only stopping for some apple juice.  The parents just kept migrating to whatever little area had some shade!  🙂

After a while, the boys took off their pirate get-ups.  Then Maxwell got his face painted!

He was REALLY proud of that firetruck cheek!

Even though it was a “big boy” party, Spencer got to tag along – mainly because Chiles’ parents are good friends of ours and we knew they wouldn’t mind – and he thoroughly enjoyed himself to the tune of a big piece of cake and 2 Dum-Dums out of his goodie bag!

In that second picture, he’s got a Dum Dum in each hand, but Robert saw it and said it looked like he was putting his dukes up!  ha!

The party was over at 5:00 and since we were all out and dressed, we decided to get dinner at The Club.  Taking Spencer to a nice restaurant at this age is always a bit of a gamble but he did great – sugar high and all!  After we ate we let the boys run around outside and take in the sights.

A perfect 10

May 30, 2014

We’re definitely getting into that age where we’re on the birthday party circuit every weekend.  In fact, Maxwell has another fun one to go to this weekend!  A few weeks ago, he got to go to Hannah’s birthday party at the gymnastics place…which he loved just as much as the last time he got to go!

How cute are all of them all lined up?!

Of course, Maxwell’s favorite part of the party was the cake…

Of course!  Can’t say I disagree!  🙂

He liked it up there so much I decided to sign him for a week long day camp this summer.  I think he’ll have fun!

Have a great weekend!

Long weekend

May 28, 2014

We just stuck around here for the long weekend and it sure was nice. I loved not feeling rushed, waking up in my own bed, and not having to unpack anything Monday night!  Well, nothing except the pool bag!  🙂  It was a fun weekend with…

ice cream as a reward for 2 boys that behaved wonderfully during Spencer’s EI speech therapist visit…
