It is Friday-yeah! We played at home this morning. Dad made Justin a track for his new train that Buffi and Mark gave him. We had fun at home. Nicole put her harness on and wanted to be walked. We had to run to Target as I wanted to see if I could find Ashley and Jordan another present-I wasn’t too thrilled with the one we found at Toys R Us. The kids picked out some pool thing with slides, sprinklers, etc. It was cute then they had fun playing in the toy aisle. I wish I could buy my kiddos everything but then they we just be spoiled brats. They liked helping me pick out the present. We got a couple other things then headed home. The kids had a snack and we got ready for the party. Ashley and Jordan had their party at a bounce house place. The kids had a blast. Nicole was really happy to see Penny and kept wanting to play with Penny, so cute. The kids went down the big slides and bounced a ton. It was fun playing in the bounce house with them. I used the new flip video camera that we just got so I can’t wait to see the videos later. The kids loved the bouncer with the big extra bouncer thing in the middle. I kept throwing the kids on it and they loved trying to stand on it. I chased them around the circular bounce house as well. We had a great time, it was a great party too. The kids all had pizza and cake together. There was a boy and a girl table. So cute to see all the boys together and all the girls. Justin wanted a vanilla cupcake and Nicole chose chocolate. They were so excited for their goodie bags and balloons. On the way home we had to stop and pick up a doll house bookcase for Nicole that I found on Craigslist. It was in such a pretty part of Lake Forest. I was hoping we could walk through the foresty areas but I was too nervous with out a potty. When we got home Nicole wanted to put on her Pooh dress and tights. She looks so pretty in it but thought she may be hot. The kids played with their goodie bags stuff. Justin made a wood block track for his new Lightening McQueen. The kids played doctor and laptops as well. The fighting was starting a bit so I let them watch TV. The kids chose to watch Curious George then Thomas. While they watched TV I had to do some stuff for pre school. Then the kiddos took a bath. The kids had a fun bath playing with these frogs. I think I had to hop it on their heads about 100 times. But then the frogs got a time out for splashing and the kids thought it was great. Dad came home and we all went to Red Robin for dinner. The kids played games there, luckily we sat near the games so we were able to sit at the table and watch them. Nicole and I went into a store for a little while and dad and Justin went over to the fountain. I love Nicole time as much as she loves time with me. The minute we were alone she looks up and says I love you mom. We were playing in the store and Nicole was watching me rather then watching where she was going and she bumped into a table, poor thing. We met up with dad and Justin and joined them going up and down the escalators. We got home and dad brought in the doll house bookcase so the kids wanted to play with that. Justin put books in it and Nicole wanted dolls to put in it. We also played car wash, where the kids run up and down the hallway and run into their sheets, I love the games we play. The kids went right to sleep.
