Fun Weekend!

Nico and I had such a fun weekend....we went out to lunch with my friend, Suzie Saturday and then went shopping for our birthday parties on Sunday. Nico wasn't really interested in eating but had fun at the store shopping for Chay's birthday! Then on Sunday we went to Kaitlyn's 10th Birthday party where we experienced Roller Skating for the first time with Nico and the first time for me in about 14 years!!! At first I was a little unsteady but got the hang of it and Nico was holding onto me with all his might, but we went around the rink twice without falling once!!! Then finally, Nico got the courage to roller skate on his own on the carpet and was having a blast playing with the kids and rolling from machine to machine where he thought he was playing the "big" kids games! How much fun was that to see him experience new things and to celebrate Kaitlyn's birthday!!!!

Then it was off to Nico's friend, Chay's party where they had a carnival theme. Plus Chay got a new sandbox which Nico was in heaven playing in! All the kids got their face painted, got to shoot water to make the cans fall of the table, bean bag toss, and ball in the jar. Which he got his very first fish, but unfortunately by the end of the party he was already in fishy heaven, which with everything else going on he forgot about his new pet. After everyone left, and while Mommy helped clean up Chay and Nico got to play with Chay's new sand toys in her awesome sandbox!!!!

It's weekends like this watching little Nico play with all his friends, and have a blast plus learn something new that makes me appreciate how much fun he is just a little more!

On another note, we are still trying to potty train Nico and although Mommy is having success....Daddy isn't. And I can't figure it out, but it seems that if I put him on the potty and walk away for a few minutes, he'll go eventually. He obviously doesn't like to have people glaring at him, but who does?? He still has accidents with me, but hopefully with a little more training by the fall we'll be a diaper/pull-ups free house!!!!

Hope everyone is enjoying the warm weather!!

Until our next adventure....
