Jarrod was in Little Rock all week for training, so the kids and I really didn’t do much. It’s so difficult to take them anywhere by myself! We did go eat at Outback (they BEGGED to go there) Tuesday night, and it was a fiasco. Stratton threw a fit about the seating arrangement, my food was bad, we had to make a trip to the potty twice, it came a huge storm, the lights went out, the free dessert they gave us had a piece of plastic in it, they gave us our meal for free, we waited for 20 mins to get that taken care of, finally we left and got soaking wet in the rain. Ugh. So after that we tried to stay in and stay cool! Friday we picked corn at work and we got done around 2pm so I was able to get a few things done that afternoon. I finished up shopping, got some decorations, got some of the food, and wrapped presents! Whew! If it weren’t for my mom I’m not sure Stratton would have had a party this year! But the party was easy (for me anyway! ha!) He wanted a pool party at Gigi’s house! Yay! Free and NOT at my house! Win! Win! Gigi made the cake and it was cute and really really yummy. I might have had 2 pieces. Shhh!!!
I wasn’t able to take any pictures, because again, I was the only one that got in the pool with the kids. Jarrod grilled burgers and hot dogs and we had a nice afternoon!
He got all kinds of cool stuff, and money and giftcards! Whoo Hoo!
He is all into Big Foot right now, so Dillon and Brandye got him a cool t-shirt and a Finding Bigfoot Field Guide!
Sunday we let Stratton pick where we had lunch, since it was his Birthday! Of course he picked Red Lobster! Uncle Dillon, Aunt Brandye and Darcy came and ate with us too! Then we went home and took naps. After our naps we let Stratton open the rest of his birthday presents from us and had leftover cake! He pretty much had an “As seen on TV” birthday! He got the Balloon bonanza, a Hamper Hoop, a Snacky cup, and a zippy sack! Ha! All things he really wanted! He also got a Faux Bow and some Jurassic World toys which he is really into now after seeing the movie!
Pardon the naked sister! This girl never wants to wear clothes anymore!
What a mess!
