My first, I'm Going to THROW UP experience!!!

No Jenni, this is not another trick PG announcement. The other day the kids and I were in the grocery store and Andon says, nice and loud of course, "Mommy, her tummy's big". He was referring to the checker and no, she wasn't pregnant! I was absolutely MORTIFIED and I felt like I was going to vomit right there and then! As her head was down and she was ringing up groceries, I shook my head and changed the subject very quickly and we focused on his water bottle that he was drinking. Then, as we were just about to leave he said it again!!! This time, the bagger looked at me to see how I would respond and again, I changed the subject. The checker already doesn't like me because I get so much for cheap through my Coupon $ense stuff so it made it even worse! I would have probably tipped her a $20 if she was our waitress or something because I felt so bad!

When we got back out to the car, we talked about how God makes us all different and loves us all the same. How do you explain to a 3 year old what you can and can't comment on and what does and doesn't hurt people's feelings!?!? I told him to whisper it in my ear next time just in case it will hurt someone's feelings! We'll see if that works!

Twins hugging...can you believe it???





Here are Avery and Andon's color 3 year pictures :-) They actually had fun at this photo shoot!

Avery and Andon's 3rd Birthday Party!















Avery and Andon had their 3rd birthay party at Bounce U, an indoor bounce place that is a lot of fun!!! There were about 30 people there, most of them under 5! Mark was the resident helper for all the little ones getting up on the climbing wall to go down the smaller slide. That's why there's a picture of his bum and legs! We bounced for a little over an hour and then moved into a party room where we had pizza, juice, cake and opened presents. Avery blew out the candles three times...as soon as they were lit! It was hysterical! Andon had a little anxiety which caused a little tummy ache and believe it or not, didn't really want to open presents! He was fine though:-)

Swimming with the fishies!























Avery and Andon had their first day of swimming lessons today! They did pretty well and had fun. It was weird to be back at the pool that I first started lifeguarding at 15 years ago! Man how times have changed!

Here are also some pictures from a playdate that we had at the Museum for the Youth last week. It was a quick yet fun day :)
