Robot Playdate

There are too many cute ideas for parties and too many neat things to make for them. So, I decided to have a robot themed playdate with robot shirts, coloring books and even robot music to dance to (Midnight Star-Freekazoid Robot and Styx-Mr. Roboto). The kids seemed to have a good time, as well as the mommies!

Table and Flags

We mommies like to eat! The pizza bread is from a local Italian deli that my mom used to go to when we were kids.

Coloring books I made in Photoshop to go along with some crayons I made the kids.

Inside the coloring books I made a page with each of the kids names. Our little group always enjoys playing together and it is fun watching the kids becoming friends.

Dancing to a little robot music! How cute are Boe's little slippers (Hawaiian style)? He finally let me put them on between his toes.

Three little toe heads. I love how Boeing's arm is around Zack. Poor Sammie is buried and not even visible in the photo.

Somehow they always end up in the bath tub.

Trash Can

Last year my parents went to a Sanitation Open House. Sounds kinda hokey, but they said it was really fun and they even brought home a miniature green trash can. Well, about a year later, the thing has made a reappearance and immediately become Boe's favorite thing. He can even say "trash can" and "trash truck" and do the cutest imitation of the trash truck dumping the trash. When he sees the truck on trash day he is just elated, not to mention how excited he gets when he sees the cans all lined up on the street. I have to document this, because he will never believe me otherwise!



Easter

Didn't get too many photos, but our day was a real nice one. We had a great meal at Nama and Papa Yeager's home and a nice visit with everyone. Boeing and Amy played "No More Monkeys Jumping on the Bed" on her iPhone, he is now always asking (signing) to her to play it with him!

Boeing's First Hair Cut

Finally we found a few hours to fit in a much needed hair cut for Boe. The week was super busy with Kent working essentially seven days straight, but he was able to meet up with us for Boeing's ear infection re-check appointment. First Cut specializes in children's hair cuts and they are conveniently located near our doctor's office. GramE and GrampE were also able to join us, even after a busy day watching Boe. He was a real champ and didn't cry (like his Uncle Bubba did), although he did get a bit squrily having to sit for so long!

Sitting So Still

Finished! Had to make it up into a fauhawk!


Party at the Park

Several weeks ago (that's how far behind I am) we went to a friend's third birthday party. The party was at the park and the weather was just right. Boeing sported his Marvel Superhero shirt in honor of the Spiderman Theme.

Smells Like Spring

The first day of spring has finally arrived. The weather was perfect and the aroma from the orange blossoms filled the air. While Kent made Saturday BBQ pizza for lunch, Boe and I explored the first signs of spring.

Pizza!!

Busy, Busy, Busy

The only time I really get to post is when Kent gives Boeing a bath; a good fifteen minutes! Tonight they are playing so I have some additional time to try and catch up. Last week was really rough with two ear infections (both Boe and I) and our usual busy schedule. Just after Boe's eighteen month check up we met up with both sets of grandparents to get Boe's first hair cut. Well, it seemed he was just not in the mood (I thought it was from being at the doctors) and while I was rescheduling his appointment he threw up all over the floor at "First Cuts." If he didn't want to get his hair cut, I wish he would have just told me:) Poor baby was really not feeling well and our trip to Urgent Care the next day explained why (the ear infection). Anyhow, here are some cute photos I caught of him once he was feeling better! He is just so stinking cute! Here he is taking a cozy nap with Daddy!

Hide and seek in his changing cabinet, a new favorite activity!
Getting so big; 32 inches at eighteen month check up (Mommy made the growth chart)
Feeling well enough to watch a little TV!!
How cute is this expression? Boeing really has no interest in the real "TV" other than the on and off button. He has managed to push the button so far back into the TV that we now have to use the remote to turn it on and off!
