spring is in the air

Today, the weather was GORGEOUS!  It feels like Spring is finally here.  It was almost in the 70s today and we took every advantage of this weather.

We started the morning with Love Bug's 3 year well visit.  Peanut is 37 1/2 inches tall (63rd percentile) and 32 1/2 pounds (69th percentile).  I am so used to The Mayor's numbers being almost off the charts but the doctor says she is completely normal, healthy and growing right on course with her previous stats.  The best part...no vaccinations!

After the doctor, we ran into Meega and Bennett and had lunch together.  The kids were so excited when we ran into them in the parking lot...and after lunch, we invited Meega, Bennett and Walker (Walker missed lunch - he was at home with J) to come over and ride bikes.  They showed up and the kids played for over 2 hours in the beautiful sunshine.  They rode bikes, played with sidewalk chalk, blocks, bubbles and kicked the ball around.  Then the neighbor kids came out and invited The Mayor and Bennett to play kickball.  The Mayor was so excited to be invited to play with the big kids...Bennett stood by The Mayor to play and then came and sat with me.  Then he and Love Bug were just not interested in what those big kids were doing so they went back onto our driveway to play.

After they left, we rested for a bit and then met D at the Mexican restaurant for dinner.  It was a great treat especially since I wasn't excited about what I had originally planned for dinner.  After dinner was frozen yogurt and then home for family movie night.  Love Bug has been dying to sleep in The Mayor's room with him and we have been telling her she could do it when she turned 3.  Well, she is now 3 and she totally called us out.  We told them they could attempt the sleepover tonight.  It isn't going well.  She has only been in bed for 15 minutes and has come out of the room 3 times (to go to the bathroom, give us hugs...).  I am about to go put her in her crib where she can't escape and she will sleep.  The Mayor is so tired...he keeps telling her "the rule is you can't get out of my bed"!  Poor boy just wants to sleep!  We will try again another night.
