Our son's birthday party went very well yesterday. It was nice having a small, casual affair. Our neighbors' came over along with some family members.
We had a Easter egg hunt for the kids. Each time our son found an egg, he'd run into the other room telling everyone "I found an egg!" Then back he'd come to look for more. During the search, the each kept looking where the other was looking as if to say "Did you find something I missed?"
Next we ate yummy pizza with just enough left over. While everyone ate, our son kept 'reminding' others they needed to follow the rules he had... among them being "no touch the water" & "sit down". We told him there are adult rules & kids rules. He said okay & went back to eating. :-)
Following that, our son & his friend took turns hitting an alien pinata with a plastic toddle bat. Our son broke one leg off & some candy fell out. After a few more times taking turns & a little help from Daddy the other leg broke off & dropped the remainder of the candy. Then my hubby's brother-in-law talked our son into picking up the candy on the floor & bringing it to him. Next the two kids started tossing candy from one bowl into the other bowl across the room!
Then we opened gifts & had cake. Our son loved the singing again & was saying the words clearer than ever. Afterwards we hung out for a bit before everyone left.
Thanks to my hubby's brother-in-law & father who helped my hubby move our over-sized armchair upstairs into our bedroom. As my pregnancy progresses, I know I'll end up sleeping there quite a bit.
As for party pictures, I'll try to post them today but they were having issues. I'll definitely work on it though!
