We started out our weekend by going to Monkey Joe's to do some fun jumping around! Caleb had a blast sliding down all of the slides. He must have gone down at least 25 times. He is such a big boy and not afraid! There were a lot of other older kids there which made me nervous, but Caleb just jumped right in there with them and loved it! Kathryn wasn't quit old enough to jump, so she just enjoyed watching all of the commotion!
Friday evening Russ had a softball game, so Caleb and I put Kathryn down to bed early and we had a fun movie night. We popped popcorn, drank lemonade and watched Toy Story (thanks for the idea Chelle!). He enjoyed the movie and ate almost the whole bag of popcorn! He sat still and watched the entire thing and he went to bed at 9:30 exhausted. It was such a fun evening because Caleb is at such a cute age!
Saturday evening we went out to dinner with Russ' brother Greg and his girlfriend Amanda. We had a great time with them and the kids did great. Kathryn ate a whole piece of pizza herself ~ after 2 jars of baby food! Caleb was a little more wiggly, but still did well even though he didn't want to eat his "squishy" pizza!
Monday afternoon we met Donna and Caroline at Noah's Art for a play date. The kids got to paint pictures, make a caterpillar, a bug, a butterfly and play with toys. All for just $5! Caleb loves doing art work and his teachers at school said that was his favorite part of the day. I just couldn't pass up taking him to a place to paint and stuff without having to clean anything up!
This morning we met some friends downtown at the Mint Museam for designs and crafts. They were doing a free program where kids get to make a gift for their daddy for father's day. After making a wrong turn, trying to find a parking place in the huge parking garage, getting turned around after we walked out of the parking garage, and walking downtown with a baby in a stroller and a toddler who wanted to pick up every leaf and rock that he saw, we finally made it! Caleb didn't even want to make the craft once we got there. I told him that he better get a better attitude because I was not going to have come all the way there for nothing!!! After a few minutes of whining, he did end up enjoying the craft and he has a good present for daddy now. After the craft, we walked around the museam and looked at all of the art. Caleb LOVED it and was fascinated by all of the designs. He said "Ohhhhhh, mommy look at this" over and over. Before we left he saw these really tall chairs and he wanted to sit in one of them. He asked me to please take his picture in it. This is a first because he normally hates taking pictures! I jumped at his request and ended up getting a cute picture!

Too cute! I love the picture on your blog headline. Your kids are beautiful.
Haha! Maybe Caleb will be an artist? That's good that he loves art so much. I love the picture of him at the pizza place! We had fun with y'all this week.
