Weekend fun

Saturday we hosted Beckett's birthday party with his classmates, more bounce housing and pizza and donuts this time instead of cake. Beck was diagnosed with strep (3rd time!) on Thursday and just started antibiotics Friday, so he wasn't in the lightest of moods. But his friends Owen and Walter came over and the four boys had a great time playing in the bounce house (lots of wrestling).

Reed loved that the boys had to take off their shoes and socks to bounce in the bounce house, so he got to investigate everyone's shoes.




Sunday we decided to break from the routine at home on a cold, windy, rainy day by going to the Greek Peak indoor water park. This was Reed's first time, and he loved it. Beck just reached the 42 inch threshold to go on the water slides, which was great until Theo realized that Beck was going on the water slides. Then the parents Lovebo made the decision to take advantage of the boys' twinhood, for the first time. They had each chosen the Superman swim trunks, and along with their blue goggles, they were pretty identifiable. But we realized that the lady who checks the height for the water slides hadn't seen them both together, so we sent them up one at a time so she wouldn't realize there were two of them. Which worked so well we started sending them both up at the same time, hoping she would then think that she'd already measured them both. They LOVED the slides and would have done the one in the double tube all day but Mama and Daddy were pretty dizzy from all the spinning in the slides! The video of Theo on the slide is classic Theo--after giggling and grinning from ear to ear every other time he went down any of the slides, the one time I had my camera in the right place at the right time, he hit his head on the slide on the way down.

  1. 1. Reed and his row of bottom teeth! I can't even. 2. Whoa! Greek Peak indoor water park! That's so cool. Poor Theo with his bonked head. And nicely done on the twin strategy. -Anne

  2. Way cool that you had separate parties for them! And Reed is simply the cutest. I can't wait to give him a squeeze... hopefully soon!
