A busy day....

We had a very busy day today!! We started off with going to Reid's soccer game at 9am. He's on a new team this season as his old team moved to the 1st grade level (and mom missed sign ups). Anyway, I really wanted him to play in the Kindergarten league as we thought that would better serve him. He has really loved soccer.

Well, today toward the end of the game, I had to leave to head to a shower I was helping to throw for my dear friend Leah. I didn't get 2 minutes down the road that Bry texts me to say that "Reid SCORED!!!" Are you kidding me? I missed his first score!????? I was crushed. Reid was super excited. I am so proud of him.

At 10:30, I was at a baby shower for my sweet, sweet friend Leah. She's having a sweet baby boy on Oct 9th, named Deacon Ross. The shower was such a blast! Lots of chatting and laughter.

Jenn, Ape, Leah, me

My next venture for the day was getting Cole balloons for his birthday party! Yes, his birthday is coming up. He turns 4 on Monday! There will be a special post about him on Monday.

We had his party at Peter Piper Pizza (now that's a mouth full). Lots of games and pizza and cake and ice cream...and did I mention gifts from our sweet friends? Cole has been talking about his birthday party for weeks. He has been soooooo excited!

We were serving all the kiddos their pizza and I thought we had them all served, till I turned around to find Cole still standing by me.
I said: "Cole, aren't you hungry?"
"Yes mom, but there isn't anywhere for me to sit down."

Sure enough, I looked at the table to find that all the seats were taken! Poor birthday kid. He said, that's ok mom, I can just sit over here and eat (with the adults). Oh me.
Cole wanted a Tarzan party. Apparently, they don't sell anything Tarzan anymore, so the cake and his invites were the only real Tarzan we had...but he was thrilled with that!

Ella thought that Cole would need her help in blowing out the candles! He didn't mind. He's really good at letting his brother and sister helping him with things like this. He even let Reid help him open his presents.

Yummy Yummy cake and ice cream! I would say that he had a great, sugar filled birthday party. I can't believe that he will be 4 on Monday. More to come on Cole this weekend.
