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!

I Hate Summer Construction

Seriously, this is worst year for construction. I mean it is crazy bad. Chicago to Green Bay should only take us about 4 hours. This last weekend (and last weekend too for that matter) took us 6 hours! My kids can barely last the 4 hours, so needless to say it was not a fun ride. There is only so much you can do in a Prius with a 5 year old and a 2 year old. We did have our portable DVD player, but that only works for so long.

Besides the hellish drive, our trip was great. I got to see family both days and catch up. My only complaint is that it was hot and muggy. But that’s summer for you. :)

I’ve got a couple of pictures I’ll be uploading (when I find my camera) of the kids with their newest cousin Gabe! And for those who don’t know it’s my sister’s birthday today. Make sure you head over to Karebear Central to wish her a happy birthday!
