A Busy Weekend!

We had a busy weekend starting Friday afternoon!  I took cupcakes to John Michael's classroom so we could celebrate his birthday with his little friends in his class.  I think they were pretty excited to have cupcakes after naptime!

Me and my 3 year old!  I don't understand how 3 years passed so quickly!



Matthew always makes himself at home whenever he visits John Michael's classroom!



 



After we left school we came home and played for just a bit and then had naptime.  The boys have been playing together so well lately and they have been so sweet to each other.  There have been so many hugs and kisses between them lately.  It really warms my heart!



After everyone woke up we had some dinner and then headed to our square for First Friday.  They had live music and some other fun things going on.



They also had pony rides and we let both boys ride, although Matthew had to get off because he was not at all pleased.  John Michael looooves to ride horses, so he had a great time!



Saturday morning we woke up and got ready for John Michael's birthday party at Jump Zone! 



I was so pleased with his party!  All we had to do was bring cupcakes, our camera, goody bags, and some water for the adults.  They provided everything else. It was great!  We did a sports theme (per JM's request!) and my friend Robin made John Michael this cute sports shirt for his party!



Matthew is not as excited about Jump Zone.  He rode around on this little tricycle for most of the party!



He is such a little mess!



JM had some good bouncy time with his dad!



 



 



ALL the kiddos!  We were so excited that so many of JM's friends could make the party.  It made it really special to have them all there!



After we bounced it was time to go eat some pizza and cupcakes!



 



I thought it was sweet that Matthew got to sit right beside his big brother during his birthday party!



Happy Birthday to you, John Michael!  You are 3!



 



We are so blessed to have such a sweet, talented, and smart first-born.  He makes us laugh every single day with all the things he's been saying lately.  I have been loving this age!  It's just a sweet time and I love that he gives hugs and kisses to me throughout the day.  He makes us smile!

Such a fun weekend! But yes, definitely very busy. It's crazy how fast our boys are growing up... JM is 3, and Matthew looks so big and grown-up sitting with the others in these pictures. How time flies! You did leave off the ever-important Mother's Day this weekend though... and it was great to spend it with you and my mom. You're such a great wife and mother, and I appreciate all that you do all the time for our family. Hope you all have a great day!

Love you,
Jordan
