He had been going peepee on the potty for a while now, but poo poo was a little harder to master after one unfortunate incident not to be named at this moment.
Well, he finally did it and was consistently "doing it" for several days, so even though Matt was out of town, we had a party for him, at his favorite spot, Joe's Crab Shack.
His 4 cousins, his aunt Lisa, Addison, and I all met for dinner, or rather in the kids eyes, an awesome play date at a cool park covered in sand.
Towards the end of the adventure Jake fell face first onto the concrete deck. This caused a huge black and blue swelling in the middle of his forehead, little did I know it would be the first of many.
At this point, we decided to take the kids back to our house for some swimming and dessert.
We had an awesome time and were surely appreciating the days of summer, swimming, sugar, friends and family.
We danced to Mama Mia most of the night!
Finally when it was too far past the kids bedtimes, we said one more song and we all jammed out to Dancing Queen, before we headed off to bed.
Jake came to bed with me and Chad, Addison and Jake's cousin, went to sleep with Addi in her new trundle bed.
It was an awesome memory! Lisa and I spoke of it that night...how cool this was for the kids to experience such closeness and such fun with their family!
I don't care how poor a man is; if he has family he is rich.
