Zoo and Mason's birthday

We took a trip to the zoo last week. As always, Donovan loved it.






He threw some awesome tantrums while we were there. It's like he waited until he was guaranteed at least one sibling before he started throwing his extreme tantrums. It's pretty exhausting, but we're figuring it out.

Addi is just adorable. Her little growl was cracking me up.



Donovan had a blast at Mason's party! He was all over the place!






Notice the change of shorts? Apparently he was having too much fun to go potty and ended up having an accident in the middle of the obstacle course. He was taking forever to come down the slide at the end and then I heard him whimpering. He was crying so I thought he was stuck, but he was standing there with wet pants. Poor kid. I'm glad other parents were prepared with extra underwear and pants! After we got his wet pants off he was ready for more and went right back to the obstacle course.
It was cute that even among all of his friends, Mason was still happy to sit with his little cousin Donovan.


Having fun in the bouncy house.


I got this cardboard from someone in primary to make a felt board for Sunbeams, but I ended up buying a new one because it had been used and wasn't in very good shape. I made the mistake of telling Brad I wasn't going to use it because it was a "piece of crap". Donovan wanted to keep the "piece of crap" to play with...and that's what he calls it. Am I the only one who thinks it's slightly funny? Does it make me a bad mom to think it's funny when my child says crap?


This is my sad attempt at taking my own belly picture. As you can see, it's growing pretty quickly. We're almost halfway there! 17 weeks down, 23 to go. Donovan is getting pretty excited. I think he would do well if the baby got here today. He already found the burp cloths and has been wiping my belly telling me he's cleaning the baby. He also gives the baby kisses. He's convinced that it's a girl, but I'm not so sure. Since I want a girl, it will probably be a boy. That's alright with me, we love the little boy we already have so much, I'm sure it will be just as much fun with another boy!

I'm glad Dvan had fun at the party despite his little accident! It was a good place to burn some energy...that's for sure! He is definitly one who needs a tramp or his own bounce house some day! I loved the video about my cute little girl. Addi does have the best growl and giggle when she runs away from you! I especially loved the piece of crap video...ha!

Nate says Donovan would have a heyday around here because there are so many pieces of crap at our house! Thanks for singing a song for me today, Donovan!

I loved seeing the pictures of the kids at the party. Man, they are all sweaty you know they had a blast. I loved hearing Addi growl and her cute giggle too. My favorite was the "piece of crap" video. I laughed outloud. He is hilarious! Are you sure you're that far along? I don't see a baby belly at all! Glad all is going well. Thanks for the fun post.
