Saturday the kids and I went to North Battleford for my nephew Calder's 1st birthday party. It was a great afternoon, the kids had a blast. I was so proud of them for having 2 servings of cake and ice cream...just like their mommy!
The birthday boy!
Sunday we travelled back home and then dealt with the wrath of 3 SUPER grouchy kids! Seriously, after only 2 nights of going to bed later than usual and waking up before 6:00am Sunday morning they were little monsters! We, or I should say "I", am not as strict with their schedule as when they were younger but this is a good reminder why we do still keep their bedtime and naptime pretty consistent. They sleep a fair amount compared to other kids their age age and obviously they need it!
I did get a nice big Mother's Day drawing which was great.
Mitchell decided to have a waxy snack part way through.
I can say that as happy as I was to get our little grouchos into bed that night, I did stop to think about how extremely lucky I am to be able to celebrate Mother's Day and be a mother to 3 beautiful, healthy, sweet children.
They were in no mood to take a picture with me that night so this is from another, calmer evening before bed.

Wow, two pieces of cake each one.
Painting and drawing are great activities for kids.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Awww...sounds like a great time, minus the grouchiness!
How are the attitudes? Mine seem like they are experiencing the Terrible Two's a little late ;)
Sam, we seemed to enter the terrible 2`s around 20 months. Then they were better for a bit, now I think we`re gearing for the 3`s which I`ve heard can be worse. Yikes!
