A fun filled day that started with picking up a Power Wheels John Deere Gator for the boys. Someone had it on craigslist and I’ve been wanting to get one for the boys to ride around the yard. It was bigger than I expected so in order to get it in the van we had to take all of the boys and their carseats and maneuver the Gator in. Let me tell you there was some NASTY stuff underneath the seats.

We did a quick shopping stop at Fred Meyer and picked up clothes for Baby X while the boys played in the playland then headed for games and lunch at Chuck E. Cheese. It’s always fun and the boy’s favorite.

Came home, cleaned out the van in a huge way and let the boys drive the Gator around awhile. Nana and Papa came for dinner (Sawatdy noodles and meat…sorry, Nathan) and Carlos opened his gifts. He got some great stuff, he especially loved his new camera. He took a bunch of pictures of his presents and even a couple of the floor which he was equally proud of. He also got a Leapster (like Levi’s, which he loves) and a Pirate ship and a skateboard. He’s our daredevil for sure.

Levi had a rough time with Carlos’ turn opening presents. It’s rough not being the birthday boy. There were some tears, but all was ok once the presents started to get opened and there were plenty of new toys for all to play with.

Better get some sleep…tomorrow is MNMs and I have to make “worms and dirt” for Carlos’ class for his birthday celebration at school.
