Friday:

We had lots of fun with bubbles outside. After about 10 minutes into it, I noticed it was silly to get him changed into his clean clothes from his PJs, as he decided to 'take a bath' in the bubble dish and began rolling his arms and legs in it as he sat in a pool of bubble juice. I went inside for a bit and Jenny later came in with him in hand saying he was done with bubbles. I looked over and his shorts, socks, shoes, and most of his shirt were completely soaked in sudsy bubbly slime. We took a bath, which he enjoyed.

He's been very cooperative. Only once has he done a time out for hitting and other than that, he's given no fuss to nap, bedtime, and only a little to eating. I'm so proud of him.







Later the kids went out to watch Phillip fly his kite as Jenny and I hide the Easter eggs for the Easter egg hunt. I had to go with Liam, holding his hand explaining the process of Easter egg hunting. He had fun though. He was always hesitant to reach for the eggs that were in close proximity of the plants. I think it's a textural thing. We then went to the den and sorted through all the eggs and all the goodies withing. Liam was oh so excited that a lot of the eggs had 'no cry treats in it!' There were also all these little half-inch rubbery creatures in them of all sorts of type, octopus, hippos, mermaids, dogs, squirrels, ducks, birds, etc. Liam loves them, and they all come in there own little storing spheres. Containers, another thing Liam loves.

Dinner was a little bit of a fit to get him to eat some kind of real food, but with the coaxing of Gigi and the bribe of cake, he got some food in. Then, after cake, he hit a sugar high, which was really cute, because he rarely has sugar, and I think he started to get a little crazy. His energy level went from low to high, and it was like it was streaming out of every part of his being. He was running and talking a million miles an hour, and having just a heck of a time. We've obviously let bedtime run till 10:00pm, so by the time the cake high was coming down, bedtime was just around the corner. Tomorrow is another fun filled day with even more relatives, which I can't wait for Liam to endure!
