BUSY BUSY Weekend...

We started the weekend out by celebrating Bill's 60th birthday with a SURPRISE party at his brother Scott's house in St. Cloud. He was surprised...his whole family was there and as many of his in-laws that could make it. This worked out great for Taylor too, she got to spend the night at Rick, Brooke, and Drew's house and since it was so close, Eric and I went back there as well. We kept the birthday boy up late, headed over to Rick and Brooke's and routinely were up again by 6 AM. Eric and I thought...this is going to be a long day. We ventured back to Elk River for the weekend with 2 kids, Taylor 10.5 months AND Drew 18 months!!!!!! All we could think about was...how can we get both kids to nap at the same time so we can nap too!!! Amazingly, after all the playing together outside, all 4 of us managed to get a nap in at the same time!!









TAYLOR WORE HIM OUT!!

The kids had a great time playing together, fighting over the same toys, sharing the wagon for rides and rides and rides. I have blisters on my feet from all the rides...Taylor might need new tires for her birthday!! Thankfully the weather was gorgeous because both kids wanted to be outside all the time and that we were. We had snacks and juice on the picnic table, fell asleep outside, picked rocks, played, played and played. Drew and Taylor played very well together for the most part of the weekend. Eric and I did decide 7.5 months between kids is way too close - at least at this age, both are too mobile and demanding. There were times both were crying and times I was holding both!! Drew was pretty surprised and happy to see daddy when he picked him up Sunday night. Being so tuckered out from Taylor chasing after him, he was sleeping before they got out of Elk River!! Drew you can come back anytime!!



DREW WE HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE WEEKEND!
