Family Fun Night!

Sorry we have not posted much this week. Monday and Tuesday it was such nice weather we played outside. On wednesday Mom babysat ( not her cup to tea). Our neighbor who is our sitter wanted to go to her great aunt's 95th birthday. So Mom watched us and one of her regular kids. But, it was nice for her to get a day off- since she never get those. Then on Thursday we went to the sitter. On Friday we played outside and they had a nighttime thing at the rec center called family fun night. We got to play basketball, win suckers at a game (even Amelia got one), and play on a inflatable. It was so much fun! But, we are still trying to get over the fact that Oma and Opa had to cancel there trip. And Mom has a horrible cold!

We are also trying to get used to our new schedule. Mom decided not to change us back to our regular times after the time change. Mom figured that once it is warm I am going to want to be outside and not going to bed at 8pm when it is light out. It is nice since we have more time to get out in the evenings and more time with dad. We now nap from 1-3 and eat at 6pm. I go to bed at 9pm and Amelia goes to bed at 8:30. We think this is kind of hard on Mom - since she likes to go to bed early.

Trike Riding

I have been workign more on pedals. I am getting a little better each day. I could of did better if it was not so cold all winter.

Big Girl Amelia

For some reason my sister looked so old today in her new outfit. It was new outfit for spring/summer. I guess she is going to be big like me soon.

Don't be shocked

Mom and Dad left us with the neighbor on Friday night to have a date. Amelia and I had a nice time. Even though I bugged Marcy by asking where's Mom all night! We even got to eat our supper outside. Then Marcy and Steve brought us home and put us to bed. And we did not make any fusses.

Mom and Dad wanted to do something outside. So they went to Fun Town and rode Go Carts, played baseball, and did mini golf. Mom is not a huge fan of mini golf but she managed to hit 3 hole in ones. Then they went for dinner and ice cream and still was home by 9pm. I guess they are getting old.
