Sleepy Saturday/Sunday
What a relaxing day. So far, at least! :)
We woke up quietly and had left-over doughnuts. Yum! Oh, Jef got up a little earlier than I did, so I could sleep in a bit. My mind kept racing, though, so I got up pretty quick.
Jonathan had a great birthday party day. Maybe I should back up.
Wednesday was the day Matthew went to the hospital. Thursday was Jonathan's actual birthday. Since Kamali & Tina had taken the boys, we just had to pick them up on the way to ice skating. We got to ice skating late, and the boys were tired. Jonathan complained of his feet being cold as soon as lessons were over. Daniel's skates were too big, so his ankles kept turning in. Jonathan was very sad. We couldn't figure out why. I didn't realize how tired he was until later. Jef finally figured out that Jonathan thought his party was going to be that day. So he wanted to hurry up and leave so we could have his party. :( We ended up leaving early. We went home, then Nicholas & I went to Target to pick up some things we'd forgotten.
The boys played Nintendo with Daddy, and then they took naps. The rest of the day was fairly uneventful. I made Jonathan macaroni & cheese for his birthday dinner.
Thursday morning we woke up and had donuts for breakfast (Jef had brought them home the night before). Then Nicholas decided to make the bathroom messy again. Once we got that cleaned up, we were ready to go. We headed off to Chuck E. Cheese's. We were off about an hour later than we had planned. Jef was a little worried that Chuck E. Cheese's would be busy. (we hate crowds) The boys prayed for Matthew on the way to the playplace, and they also prayed that it wouldn't be crowded. :o) We got there, and it seemed like there were a good amount of cars. When we got inside, we immediately saw kids from ice skating!! God is so cool!! They said, "Hey! Jonathan's here!" and our kids said, "Hey they are from ice skating!!" :) So it was a fun time for the boys. Jonathan was a babe magnet. He had two or three little girls following him around the whole time! He rode the jet ski ride and one of the little girls rode behind him! It was so cute!!
God was just blessing our day on Friday. We got pizza, drinks, and 139 tokens for $30! I thought that was great, because 100 tokens would have cost us $25. I was able to bless someone else, too, because I had extra coupons. So that was neat. I was brave and asked Mary, Charissa and Aaron's mom, for her phone number. Now we can make a playdate, hopefully. :)
Aunt Tina was able to join us for lunch, which made it really special.
After we played and played, it was time to go home and get ready for the party. We were a little worried that we wouldn't be done in time, but we were!
Jonathan had a wonderful party. Grandma, Jacob, Aunt Kamali, Aunt Tina, Aunt Amy & Libby, Wes, and all of us were here. Nicholas decided Grandma was his, and planted himself in her lap. He got down a couple times, but promptly returned. That was good, because Grandma needed some baby love with all the stress with Matthew in the hospital. :)
We had lemon cake, peanut butter cup ice cream & mint M&Ms ice cream. Jonathan requested tropical punch kool-aid to drink. :) We also had some snacks, too.
Jonathan received really cool presents! He got a Star Wars LEGO Rebel Snow Speeder (from Wes & Amy); a LEGO racer car, a LEGO Ferrari kit, some bookmarks & a Children's Dictionary (from Aunt Kamali & Aunt Tina); movies & M&Ms from Grandma; a tool bag, with grown-up tools (from Daddy); Hungry Hungry Hippos (from Mommy); an Etch-A-Sketch (from Daniel); and a set of LEGOs for rescue vehicles (from Nicholas). :) Right now he's putting together the Ferrari. He has already put together the Star Wars Speeder. That he did the first night. :)
Saturday was really relaxing. Now today is too. I love hanging out with my family. The kids are so neat. Oh, yes, Jonathan lost one of his front teeth last night! His other front tooth is also very loose, but he doesn't want it pulled yet. :)
This has become very long. I'm gonna go now. Thanks for reading!
