House of Bounce and Gymnastics Birthday Parties

Wesley has been very busy with birthday parties of kids in his class the last two weekends. Two weekends ago he went to a birthday party for Tyler and Austin who are twins in his class at school. They had their birthday party at House of Bounce. Wesley was so excited to go but once he got there he was shy at first and didn't want to go on anything. He finally found a bounce house obstacle course that he was comfortable going through and a bounce house to jump in. A few other kids from his class were at the party too. It was really cute seeing him interact with his friends.
This past weekend Wesley went to a birthday party for his friends Izzy and Dominic. They had a joint birthday and invited everyone from school to the party. It was at a gymnastics place near our house At first Wesley was very reluctant to participate but once he started he didn't want to stop. He had such a good time.

The Wave

Yesterday morning I brought Wesley to a new haircut place called the wave that just opened for kids to get his haircut. The person who used to cut Brandon's hair where they have been going recently opened it with her sister-in-law and we had a coupon for 5 dollars off of a haircut so I figured we would give it a try. Brandon and Wesley loved it there. There was a table pained with chalkboard paint for them to draw on, they have I-pads connected to monitors so kids can pick what they want to watch, they have a Wii in the waiting area, and they have a surfboard to stand on at the end for a picture.

Half Marathon

Stu ran in his second half marathon this morning. Our friend Brenda also ran in the half so I went with her husband to watch. We watched it at the 8 mile mark and then again at the finish. Stu finished in 2 hours and 14 minutes.

T-Ball Parade, First T-Ball Game, and Touch a Truck

Yesterday we had a very busy day. It started with the Ocean Township Little League opening day parade. Brandon is playing t-ball this year so his team was in it. He is on the Orioles and so far seems to have fun playing t-ball. Wesley and I went to watch the parade since Stu was also in the parade driving a fire truck. Wesley wasn't too happy when the sirens came on.
After the parade there were opening ceremonies. Buster from the Lakewood Blue Claws was there so the kids enjoyed seeing him and having their picture taken with him.
Brandon then had his first t-ball game. Unfortunately they only played two innings since it started really late. They had to pump the field before the game because it rained the day before and one of the fields drained on the t-ball field. Brandon had fun anyway.
After Brandon's game we went to Touch a Truck. We went with our friends, John and Rachel, and their kids, Tori and Lexi. Brandon and Tori had fun climbing on the trucks.

Bring Your Child to Work Day

Yesterday was bring your child to work day. Brandon came with me for the day. He fit in with my kindergarteners perfectly. They loved having him there and he loved being there. He went to computers and art with them and ate in the cafeteria with them.
