The Big 3-0!

Last weekend we celebrated Jason's birthday. He turned 30 this year, so I asked him if he had anxiety over it. He said he didn't but then he kept coming home from basketball with a sprained ankle or a hurt foot, then yesterday he came home and I asked how he got a black eye! He wasn't aware of it even and we both had to laugh about it-and now we joke about all of these incidents coming with the age. He's fine though, really! A couple of Sundays ago, we invited my siblings over for a soup dinner and games. We were able to get in one game and then the kids were ready for cake-Addy and Jaydon wanted to be right by the candles, they thought it was fun!
When he got home on Friday night, we opened a few presents for him, including a candy bar poster. I was trying to come up with a fun thing for his 30th birthday, but that was all I could come up with. So, I thought of how we could get 30 different candies on there. It turned out fun. He also got a Sudoku game. We used to take turns playing mine every night before we went to bed, but now we have little competions and it's fun! (I always win!) We ended up going to dinner and watching a movie that night. Then on Sunday, we went out to Jason's parents house to celebrate his mom's birthday. If you are keeping track that is 3 cakes in a weeks time-which =TOO MUCH! We came home from his parents and decided to throw the cake away, Jason wants to start watching what he eats, and I'm all for it but it must have something to do with the age!

Anyhow, I noticed Jaydon with the camera again...on a few occasions. He kept putting his Toy Story toys into the handles on the dresser. He kept asking me to "Look!" after each one he got in. I took the pictures of him in it, HE took the pictures of the toys themselves. I think I know what to get him for his birthday! Happy Birthday to daddy, we sure love you lots!

Christmas Break

Everyday I think about posting about our Christmas break-then I go to bed. But, it was a really fun Christmas and Jaydon was so fun to have around. We spent Christmas Eve at Jason's parents house, then came home to watch Santa Paws. We all got to bed and Santa delivered in the morning. Jason's parents came over to see Jaydon's loot and watch him open presents and that was kind of fun. He was soooo excited to see his garbage truck and dump truck (he'd been asking for that for a few months). Then he opened his Thomas the train stuff from Santa and was so excited to see that he got trains too! He was spoiled rotten as he also got Toy Story stuff and matching pjs and tools!!! My parents gave him a wagon and Jason's parents gave him some more tools-so our house has been getting fixed a lot lately:)!
After Christmas morning at our house, we went to Jason's parents, then up to I.F. to visit my family. We stayed for a few days, then came back so I could still work a few days. The whole time up there, Jaydon kept asking if he could play with his trains. I have to admit I did feel a little bad for him. To get a fun surprise from Santa and then have to go visit grandma and grandpa seemed so unfair, I'm sure! But, the day we came home, we put away our Christmas and Jaydon played for HOURS with his trains...he'd just lay there and watch them go around and hook more freight cars on, and take them off, then add them on, and so on, and so on....it was really nice!

Jason had the entire week off and by the end of it, I think he was ready to go back. He kept asking "What do you guys do all day?" I hope he figured it out! We had a lot of fun playing and relaxing, but even Jaydon was ready to go play with his cousins (where he goes while I'm at work!) He kept asking to play with Addy, so luckily, we went bowling with them last Saturday and Jaydon had a blast! He got to play a few games and bowl, then we went home and had pizza so he was happy! Now work is up and going and Jason told me it didn't last long till he felt like it wasn't as good to get back to work as he thought! (Told ya!) BUT, we are having a fun winter with all of our new toys. Not saying it wouldn't be nice to see some signs of spring though- Happy Wishing!

P.S. When we downloaded the Christmas pictures we notice a certain little somebody got a hold of a certain something they are NOT to touch...he saw them and said "I did picture of my toys!" He was really proud, how could I resist the cute pictures from a two-year-old view!
