Getting Ready For The Party
We are celebrating Will’s birthday party over the weekend. If you can believe it, he is going to be 4 years old! I know — it seems like it was just yesterday! I can guarantee it will rain though. Why? We can’t throw that kid a party without some sort of rainstorm. All of his birthdays and even his baptism all had rain! I swear we can’t catch a break on that one.
What do you get a 4 year old though? He already has Swivel TV stands in his room that hold my 12 inch TV (that I got in high school. Can you believe that still works?!?!), a DVD player (the first DVD player Bill and I bought. It was when they first came out. Can you believe that still works too?!?!), and the receiver for our cable TV. It’s not like we are adding any audio racks or media cabinet furniture to that setup. Actually, he has a setup at 4 that some adults don’t even have.
He is a huge Spiderman fan, so I’m sure he’ll be getting a ton of Spiderman stuff (including the huge Spiderman we already got for him). Will’s “real” birthday isn’t until Tuesday, so he’ll be highly confused on why we are celebrating this multiple times for him. Well, off to clean and I’ll let you know how the party goes!

Personalized books
Do want a great present for a child that you never know what to get? I think I found the perfect gift: personalized childrens books. I just ordered one of these books for Madison, and I love it. I am still deciding whether or not to give it to her now or wait till Christmas or wait till her birthday in January. I had to give them a little information about her like her name, age, and where we live. They took that information and made it into a story about Sesame Street and her. I already know that she is going to love a story about her.
I was amazed over how many different types of books that you can have made with them. I have a baptism coming up for one of my friend’s twins, and I am thinking about getting the kids a book for it. They have Christian, Sesame Street, Marvel, and Fantastic Four ones just to make a few. There are 7 pages of choices. You can spend all day just deciding which book to get!
Something else I just noticed when I was checking out their site was that you can set up a call for Santa to call your kids. How cool! I am not sure that Madison is old enough yet to really get the whole Santa thing, so I may not do it this year.
