Casen's Friend Party

Casen looks forward to his Friend Birthday Party every year.  I swear as soon as we are done with one he starts thinking of where he wants to have it the next year.  This year he wanted to have a party at Planet Play.  This is a really great place.  It has go-carts, bumper cars, laser tag, mini golf, etc. etc. 

Here are the boys (and Ciara) getting ready for a game of laser tag.

Ciara is showing Cora her dance moves.

Happy Happy Birthday to Casen!!

So much fun......Thanks Everyone!!

Cora's Big Girl Room

 

A few weeks ago we bought Cora a dresser that was on sale.....so since we had bought a dresser we figured we would go ahead and also get her a bed and switch her from the crib.  Cora was so excited for her new bed.  We really talked it up and got her super excited.  The first week went so great.  She would lay down and go right to sleep....when she woke up she would stay in bed and call for me.  I thought to myself, this is going to be easy.  I figured we had made the transition without any difficulty at all.  That was all up until yesterday at nap time.  Cora figured she would just keep getting out of bed and well she was up she would also learn how to open her bedroom door (it took her like 1 minute to figure out).  So needless to say she would get out and I would put her back for about an hour.....and then I caved.  No nap for Cora yesterday.  Luckily she was so tired last night that she went right to bed.  Today's nap time was also a struggle.  I figure I will have to deal with this no matter when I switched her so I might as well deal with it now.  She is definitely all about the nap time power trip.  Here is to hoping it doesn't last long.
