I have been meaning to do this post for a while, but I have been laid up with a badly sprained knee. (In related news, I hate crutches, which I will write about in my next post.) Last week was filled with many milestones. The first of which is that the boy turned two. We spent the morning playing at home. He has been going through sleep regression, so he had not been sleeping well. He opened presents and took a nap.
Then Mr, Monkey and I went to the Children's Museum here in Boston. He had a blast, and we did too. The museum sure has changed since I was a kid!
Then we took Monkey to his favorite restaurant where they brought him cake and sang. The child was so excited. And the cake was delicious!
He also finished his school year in the Toddler One classroom and now we get to look forward to the Toddler Two classroom. The program turns into a summer camp/transition classroom from now until September. To celebrate the end of the school year, the daycare had a BBQ with a petting zoo and bouncy houses. We loved it all...
This just in... Bouncy Houses are a hit with toddlers.
Saturday was Monkey and my Nephew's Birthday party. We did it at a park not far from where I grew up. We were able to use the pool and it was a gorgeous day. Monkey loved singing along with everyone!
And much cake was consumed by all.
We also had a bouncy house... which went over with all the toddler excitement you would expect.
Then Sunday was Father's Day... After all the festivities of the day before, we had a somewhat laid back family day. I made homemade pancakes, we showered Mr. with all the presents and love. I also made orange creamsicle cake and we had Indian buffet.
At the end, Monkey was given his first lollipop. He loved it!
The good news is that the sleep regression is getting better. He has (knock on wood) been sleeping through the night once we get him to sleep.
