Birthday boy

Grayson was VERY excited to have a birthday party this year. At first it was going to be all boys, but then he changed his mind!  I was surprised when all the kids enjoyed the games, and wanted to keep playing. Such a fun day for our boy!

We started out with pin the head on the Lego-man, which was pretty funny. For some reason both my girls went to the wall instead of the door!

 

Make your own Lego head!

We had a relay race - you had to put on a glove and pick up and carry a Lego to a cup across the room

Presents - I think the kids giving them were as excited as Grayson!  The biggest problem was they all wanted him to play with theirs!

His Lego cake :) The frosting was a bit of a fail, but he still liked it and all the kids came back for seconds!

 Ava, Ty, Dane and Grayson. Not pictured: Jack, he didn't want to be involved at this point, ha!

big girl!!

We have been begging Lily for months to use the potty, but we were met with either screams, her saying "tomorrow", or "I do it Thursday", or "I HATE POTTIES!". I told her that once she turned 4 that we couldn't do diapers anymore, and she couldn't play outside until she wore underwear. So one day (the day before our trip) she decided to wear "underwears". The first day was iffy, just because we were getting ready for vacation. She wore diapers on vacation, then came home and declared she was ready for underwear!  Just like that - it was done. She has had hardly any accidents, she tells you when she needs to go and for the most part can take care of everything herself.  I have been immensely enjoying my time with no diaper changing, since I'll start the whole thing again in July!
