Poetry in Motion

You love rhyming, and this is a short song that you came up with while I was giving you a shower.

"If I had a hammer,

I would flush it away..

So I could have a new one

Every Single Day."

Classic or WHAT.

Cars 2 Revisited

The last time you were so caught up with Cars or Cars 2 was probably 1 1/2 years ago.

Here you are, enjoying your afternoon matinee, complete with drink and popcorn, while mummy takes a nap. :)

 

At time of writing, you have watched it from beginning to end about 4 times, all seen within a week.  We also borrowed "Mater's Tall Tales" from the library, and you have been watching THAT on a daily basis :)

Happiness is Playgrounds....

Even though it tugs at the heart strings to see how fast you are growing up, but it makes me proud to see your little achievements, and how you are getting stronger and more nimble and more confident...

Just a few months ago, you would not have even contemplated attempting to climb up dubious looking steps :)

You were climbing UP the slides like a little monkey, and making me run up and down to watch you did so.

We even got to get Cindy in on the action.

The Birthday Epidemic

It all started with Pooh Bear's surprise birthday party.... and then it just snowballed into a fortnightly thing or something, where someone or other of your toys would need to have  a birthday party.

Seeing how you aren't really demanding as far as birthday party itineraries go ( You're usually pretty much happy if there's cake or cupcake ), I usually oblige and try to convince you to space them out a little.

So far we have also had

Elmo's Surprise Birthday

White Bear's Surprise Birthday

( I know, this was my attempt at not using too much icing, but still have some decoration on the cake - and it worked.. lol, you loved it )

and Moose's Not-A-Surprise Birthday

 

Little Pooh Bear Jr.'s birthday has already been scheduled to be next.

Hoy.

The Gamer

It has been about a year and a half since we've been to any "arcade" type place.  I think guilt finally set in, after denying you for so long, and it's not for the lack of you asking. :) Everytime we go by the mall, you would ask to go to Chuck E Cheese's, and if we drove by the Expo Center, you would ask to go to Prime Time.

I mean, you may not remember a lot of things from when you were 3, but you sure remember them arcades! LOL

Anyway, last Friday, after mummy had had a brief stop shopping at the Ditto's sale, we finally relented and stopped by Prime Time.

We watched the go-karts whiz by, and decided that THAT particular "ride" might have to wait till you were a little older :)

When we got inside, there was a bunch of ACU students bowling and having a pizza party.  Of course you tried to grab the first bowling ball you came across, was surprised that you couldn't budge it, and wanted to go look for one that was "more your size".

 

Of course, the main attraction was the arcade area.  There was a "little peeps" area, where we played some games, enough to redeem a bunch of little "prizes" :)

Your favorite game in the place, though, was the air hockey table. You and I played it twice :P

As we were walking out to the car, we see a couple of girls resting up, with golf clubs and balls in hand.  Daddy asked them if we could borrow their gear so that you could at least hit the ball a few times, and they were so gracious and readily handed the stuff over :)

Hopefully we won't have to wait that long again till we come back :)
