Saturday was my mom's birthday (Grandma Salisbury!) And we went out to Smoky Mountain Pizza with family to celebrate. I forgot the camera, and then forgot to take pictures with my phone, so we are picture-less. But, it was a nice setting, a large private room with a door right next to the arcade game room which is where the kids played when we weren't eating. We ate some food and then cake.
My mom has been working on writing a book of stories for quite a many months. She wanted it ready for her 60th birthday, and it was! She had some copies printed and gave each of the families one of the books. The book is stories from her life, you can really see the completeness of how God has brought her through from beginning to 60. I love it. You can even purchase them on Amazon!! I cherish the fact that all of these stories of hers are written down now, and I am so proud of her for doing it! Way to go Mom!
Sunday Nico was in the big kids room again at church. He didn't like the loud music and was found in the back, lying on the floor and crying. So sad! He told them that he didn't like the music so they put him in the nursery while they sang music, and then brought him back out when the music was over. Then on Sunday nights, we are going to be transferring him to big kids Bible Study. We'll be dropping him off at a different house before Guy and I go to our Bible Study.
Monday was sunny and warm,
Tuesday Nico woke up sick. I was pretty sure it was the virus his teacher had emailed all the parents about last Friday, but after a few hours it became apparent that his tummy issues were not related to illness, but related to whatever it is he inherited from me :) This means that he was fine a few hours later. I had already cancelled school for him that day so we just hung out at home.
Wednesday evening I took Nico and Evelyn (she insisted on being called Evelyn from now on instead of Evie) to the park. Check out the video at the end of the post.
Evie was taking "naps" at the park, Nico would come up to her and say "Evie get up! We don't have time for this!"
We found a fun place for Nico to sit while he eats his snack. Yay for spring days!
I am thinking and thinking and can't think of anything else we did this past week. He is still reading the words "it" and "was" in all the books I read him. He is spelling out words and trying to figure out spelling. He is still wanting to play with cars during You and Me Time, except now we are starting to use the cars to do other things. Like, playing with cars that want to color, or play with cars that want to put legos together.
I make him a red pancake every morning because I have a bunch of leftover red beet root powder from something else. I also put chocolate chips on his pancake in the shape of something. Sometimes he tells me what to make the shape, sometimes I decide. Yesterday it was "Carwash. Make a carwash on my pancake." Okie dokie, carwash it is.
He tried chocolate yogurt on Wednesday and loved it. That might be a regular. Only a few ingredients, from Trader Joe's. He was so excited sitting in the car eating it with a plastic spoon, saying in a loud voice every so often: "This won't make me sick!" Or "What's in yogurt, mommy?", I tell him and he says, "Oh, I can eat it, it won't make me sick!" awww. We all need more food in our lives that won't make us sick :)
