Busy Busy

What a fun day! It started out with an adventure to church with the two kids solo. Luckily Diana slept the whole time and Jonathan was well behaved (must have been the donut I promised him if he was good in church).

This afternoon we went to Momma G's house for a swim party as Tara, Aaron, Dean and Wyatt made a very long road trip to spend some time in Ohio. We are so happy they (minus Aaron) are here for 2 weeks. Jonathan loved the pool! He was getting his face wet in the pool, swimming all around with his water wings, figured out he could touch the bottom of the pool on his tippy toes and then got a little adventurous and went down the water slide. The top was a little high up so someone would lift him on the slide, about halfway and then let him go while I was in the water to catch him. He loved it! Except for when I missed catching him and he went under a bit but he got over it and went right back up to go down it again. We also got to celebrate one of Dean's cousin's birthdays with ice cream cake. Yummy!

Then tonight, GB, Grandpa Weeks, Kyle and Amanda came over to celebrate Grandpa Weeks' birthday with pizza and ice cream cake. Yes, we were spoiled with ice cream cake twice today with no complaints! It was really cute when Jonathan noticed GB and Grandpa Weeks' pulling in the driveway, he squealed, ran over to the window and started banging on it saying hi GB, hi Grandpa. Then he went into crazy kid show off mode and was all wound up. Needless to say he was quite excited to see GB and Grandpa. Luckily Grandpa and Kyle filled part of the void of Daddy not being here by wrestling and being "wild" with Jonathan because I have learned that I cannot do this nor do I want to...it's a little too much "boy" for me. The celebration ended with Jonathan carrying his sleeping bag and backpack out of the house into GB's "sports car" for a sleepover at their house. Since Dave hasn't seen Diana in 3 weeks, I picked up on some of the things that were mentioned on how she has changed...much more alert and her neck control is greatly improved. She is also awake a lot more now, still sleeps a lot, but she was awake the whole time everyone was here. Diana and I bonded for awhile and now it is off to bed for us as well.
