Dennie Kids: October 23, 2010

Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)

  • Anderson woke everyone up first and it was a good thing because Grandpa was waiting to get started working on today’s project.  Mom and Dad had already worked till 2 in the morning on it.
  • When the boys asked where Dad was and they realized they weren’t outside helping build the “house” they were quite upset.  They soon found shoes, a box which became a boat and a corn dog on a stick and enjoyed the rest of the morning
  • Mom had to finally wake up Reagan-she was exhausted and could have slept quite a bit longer but Mom had to go outside to supervise the workers!  (ha!)  Soon it was 9:10 and Mom had to go in to start getting everyone ready for church pictures
  • Taking our pictures with Nonna, Pops and Jason and then taking our directory pictures with just our family.  The kids were all great-they stood still and tried their best to do as they were asked.  But it is hard for a 3 year old to understand “put your hand on Dad and lean up”  Just like it was hard for Dad to understand “sit on the floor with your legs like this”-they had us sitting on the floor which was kind of odd but it turned out well
  • Eating pizza out, watching the ballgame and celebrating Pop’s birthday.  After cheese dip, salad and pizza, we only needed some cupcakes to eat.  And they were waiting back at home on us-they had been delivered today (thanks groupon.com & Cupcake Crazy)
  • Pops enjoyed opening his gifts and Anderson really enjoyed him opening his gifts.  Anderson always guesses that every gift people open is going to be a truck-and sure enough, this time one of the gifts was Mac from Lightening McQueen.  The boys were very surprised and they enjoyed this gift of Pops the most
  • Soon it was time for more work on the “house for the lawnmower” and Grannymom and Grandpa were back over.  Everyone played with Grannymom while Dad and Grandpa worked on the house and listened to the game.  Anderson was able to help some on the door knob but he quickly lost interested and Reagan was busy modeling multiple outfits for the workers
  • When the house was finished, we loaded up to run a few errands.  Graham and Campbell had their naps in the car (Mom even had one too while we waited on Dad to come out of a store).  After our errands, we came home for supper and playtime
  • The boys snuggled under Anderson’s blanket while they watched a movie until Graham stole the blanket.  Reagan was happy that Campbell and her didn’t have to share a blanket-Campbell was busy working on her crawling!
