We've had quite the week here! We finally finished the backyard re-do and it looks so good! One step closer to being ready for Little Dude's birthday party this weekend. We are so excited to have a big party to celebrate him turning one! It sounds like we will have quite the large crowd. It should be a good time.
Little Dude found a new "friend" this week. He was in his playpen playing with his toys and I noticed that he got really quiet. I had been folding laundry, but stopped. Silence is usually not a good thing when you have a little one who is usually very busy. I peeked over and saw that he had something in his hand. It was a LIVE cricket. He was carefully dissecting the cricket by pulling the legs off. I screamed like a little girl as I scooped him up. Gross gross gross! He is definitely all boy!
My best friend from my hometown let her oldest daughter (who I call my niece) come to spend the week with my parents and with me. On Tuesday, we had a big pool party at Nana's house. Little Dude, me, Grammy, Aunt K, Cousin R, my niece, Little Girlfriend, her mommy & Nana were all there. We had such a fun time playing in the pool! Here is Little Dude playing on a shark toy that Grammy brought.

After our fun day on Tuesday, we decided to head to the store to get some stuff for Little Dude's party. While we were there, part of a pallet of 12 pack 20-oz sodas randomly fell over and one of them landed on Little Dude. He thankfully ended up only having a few bruises, but we are now dealing with the store and their claim people to get the medical bill paid for (they assured us immediately they would cover all medical costs). Many people have said he is either a superhero in training or he has some fast flying guardian angels. I tend to agree! We really did get lucky!
The rest of the week has been uneventful (thank goodness!). My "niece" is coming to spend the day with us tomorrow and will also stay the night. I can't wait to spoil her! Little Dude adores her. He had so much fun playing with her on Tuesday. It makes my heart happy to see them playing with each other. And then Saturday is the big party!! Can't wait!
