So month o drew has been over for awhile now but the camera cord was missing so it got prolonged. Drew had a super hero party on Saturday the 20th for 10 awesome super hero friends. It was our first friend party so Dean and I were not sure how it was going to go down. There were a few times when we thought we were losing them, but it turned out pretty fun. Drew was really excited the party was at 10:30 so at 8:00 he was ready to party he kept asking us how much longer. He had his Iron man costume on at 9:00 and kept asking, "Is my party going to be after breakfast, or after lunch?". Dean would give him a countdown so he would come find me and inform me that there was only 15 minutes to party time, then 10 and 5 minutes to party time. I think he had a lot of fun.
Then it was off to Evanston for a family party since we have both Grandparents, an uncle, and a cousin with birthdays all the same week as Drew's. Pizza, pinata, spider man cake, and an awesome Rodeo set from Grandma and Grandpa he couldn't have been happier.
Then we had to have his actual birthday unfortunately like Christmas he was a little sick all the hype I guess. He went to McDonald's for lunch with some friends then he wanted to go to the life science museum at BYU, which is pretty cool and free, then to the Mayan for dinner with my parents. We got a table right in the front so it was really fun, he had never been there before we had just been telling him about it so I think he was impressed. Plus Grandma and Pops brought more presents, including a sweet Bumble bee helmet.
AVERYAvery is now 8 months old! She has been doing much better with her eating and will now eat pretty much anything I give her all fruits, veggies, even some of that meat in a jar and she is so messy. She started really being able to crawl only a week ago and now she is crawling all over the house finding all kinds of treasures to put in her mouth. The last 2 days she has been pulling her tiny little self up on EVERYTHING and bumping her head. She is growing up so fast :(
He cried pretty hard at first, the sight of blood always makes it worse but I am sure it didn't feel so good. I felt bad for him, but was also was a little irritated since he was playing where he knows he is not suppose to, but at that point what could I do but take him to the doctor. I have an awesome neighborhood so everyone that was there offered to help take Avery and drive us to the doctor because Drew wanted me to hold him. I also live in a great town where the doctor on call in the ER was kind enough to stitch him up on his lunch break in the clinic to save us some money. Drew did so great! Dean was able to come over and help hold him down, but once he got 3 shots to numb it he was perfect, he just laid there with his eyes closed and didn't move a muscle. An hour or so later with a lunchable and doughnut in hand and four stitches he was right back to his crazy self.
