Grayson's Birthday Weekend

My big boy is now 3 and I feel like it has gone so fast.

He had a pretty awesome birthday weekend.

I didn't throw a big party like I normally do instead we had cake on Friday with his cousins because they were leaving for Florida the next day on his actual birthday.

I went simple pizza wings and a cake from our local bakery. I sat the whole time and rested and he had a blast so that is all that matters.

Saturday my sister came and picked him up to go to story & paint time at a local pottery shop. They found out it was his birthday and even had a balloon at his chair. She took him for cookies and donuts and he had a blast.

After his nap we headed to bowling. We asked him about 3 weeks ago what he wanted to do for his birthday and he kept saying bowling. So that's what we did and he had a blast. I sat and watched and then after one game we had pizza and cake and presents! Then played another game before heading home.

It was such a good day. He kept telling me it was the best day ever! I was so thankful because I felt bad that he didn't get his normal blow out party but I think it was perfect.

Tomorrow I hope to get caught up on my weekly pregnancy updates.

Happy Tuesday!

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets! Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...
