Hayden tried all sorts of new things this week. He suddenly decided that he could play with scissors.
That he and Kylie were chefs at a Goldfish restaurant.
He woke up as a monster one day from his nap.
And he wanted to start potty training!
I am not totally pushing the potty training on him yet. A few times a day we will just practice sitting on the potty. Kylie is like a drill sergeant, though... "Go pee pee Hayden! Go pee pee! GO! NOW!"
It's pretty hilarious to watch her try to help him.
On Friday Grandma Shari and Grandpa Gary came down for the weekend!! The kids were so excited and Kylie kept saying they came down for "mommy's birthday". Kylie had my party all planned out with pink and white cake and balloons and presents! Haha I wasn't planning on any of that though, much to her disappointment.
That night we went to dinner at Sakura. We were cautious though, last time we were here Kylie freaked out with they lit the grill with a huge fire at the beginning and wouldn't sit down at the table afterwards. This time, though, she actually made it through the dinner. She did have a little freakout at the beginning (from another table's fire show), but she managed to calm down and set up an extra chair 5 feet away that was her 'safety zone' for all the fire tricks. Hayden did remarkably well, and while he got concerned, he didn't get too scared!
Saturday was my birthday, and Grandma Shari and Grandpa Gary surprised me with balloons! And cake! And presents! It was awesome. The kids were very excited for the balloons.
That morning we all went to a park that we never go to because it is clear across town. Everyone had tons of fun climbing and sliding and running around!
Then Kylie ran down the hill really fast, tripped on a tree root, went sprawling onto her face and slide several feet. After tears, consolations, bandaids and crackers she was done with the park. So we went to eat at Tom's Deli where Kylie met her friend Peyton and everything was hunky dory again!
That afternoon Brandon and I went on my birthday date and the kids had super amounts of fun with Grandma and Grandpa. They went to a park and wore themselves out and then to McDonalds where they somehow had enough energy to run all over the play place.
Sunday morning Grandma Shari and Grandpa Gary had to leave. We were sad to see them go; we had such a fun time this weekend! Thanks to all your help and making my birthday awesome!
