A Fun Filled Week and Weekend!

Another great week for A^4.  We have managed (Mommy still has her fingers crossed) to avoid another stomach bug that was going around Day Care.  We had a pretty busy week with Addie having a Well Child Visit, Date night for Mommy and Daddy, Friday night Spaghetti Dinner benefit for the High School Senior Prom, Pama's Birthday Party festivities, and fun at Labrador Unique Area.

Monday morning Daddy was teasing Addie and Addie replied, "Daddy, stop pushing buttons!"  Right on, Baby Doll!

Monday afternoon was full of new park friends: older kids who let Ayson play catch with them



Addie driving the Gator!



On Tuesday, Addie had her 3 Year Well Child Visit!  Addie is now 3 feet tall and weighs 32 pounds!

After the Drs appointment, we went to the "BIG" park for a little play time.



Wednesday night, Neighbor Denise once again offered to come over and watch the kids so that Mommy and Daddy could have a date night."   Thanks, Denise!!!



The kids had fun playing with Denise and Gianna.



Mommy and Daddy went to a restaurant in the new mall, Destiny USA.  After dinner, we explored the new attractions that are at the mall.  Daddy was fascinated with the go cart track.



We did check out the Mirror Maze!  That was tons of fun!  There are so many activities for kids (of all ages) that Mommy and Daddy can't wait to take the kiddos there for some all day fun!



On Friday, we went to a school sponsored spaghetti dinner (for prom activities).  Addie's face was pretty orange after dinner :)






The kids playing on the trampoline Friday evening.



Grandma Pat, Addie has mastered the "Puppy Color Game!"  Now we will begin working on the "Big Dog Challenge" (numbers and shapes).



On Saturday, we went to Grandpa Chuck and Pama's house to help Pama celebrate her birthday.



Ayson and Daddy playing an updated (and VERY cool) version of Connect Four



Look at that, Ayson convinced Pama to read him a story AND give him a massage!  Lucky Boy!

Mommy was showing Grandma Collene the "new trick" Mommy can do with the camera on her phone...



Cheese!  We even got Nana in on the photo!!!



The kids helping Pama get the candles set up on the cake.



Pama even let them help blow the candles out.



Happy Birthday, Pama!



Ayson fell asleep in Addie's car seat (Mommy took the car seat out earlier in the week) Saturday night.  The kids were wiped out after all the Saturday festivities.



A bit of Ayson's school work:



Mommy needs to ask Ayson about the drawings on the eggs...






Grandma Collene, Ayson's first quilt!!









Z is for zebra



A robot!



On Sunday, we went for a hike at Labrador Unique Area.

Smiles for A^4!



After the waterfall, we headed to Labrador Pond and the boardwalk.



What a beautiful day!!  It was cool along the waterfall trail but out along the pond and board walk, it was down right balmy!



Ayson learned about a "boomerang" can in school:  a rubber band with weights on it (inside the can) helps the can to roll back after it is rolled forward.  The kids helped Daddy build one and the kids loved it!
