Matt and I have some close friends, Brad and Michelle that have two children. One, Mallory, just turned three this past week and their second child, Thomas, is about 7 months old. Mallory had her birthday party last weekend at the jumpy place (forgot the name). I wondered if Trigger would like jumping because he had never jumped in one before. OH BEFORE I CONTINUE, I want to say thanks to my sweet parents for offering to keep Campbell so I wouldn’t have both boys. Matt was out of town on his CORPS retreat. It was a long weekend without his help but we survived! Anyway, when we arrived at the party, Trigger clung to me like an alligator was trying to eat his little toes. I must say that I secretly loved it because he just isn’t a child that sits in my lap or cuddles with me…he is too busy for that! He quickly warmed up but was hesitant to go into the jumpy and when I say jumpy, it’s not just the thing you go in and jump…this one is like a little obstacle course with columns you have to weave in and out of, three slides, and tubes to crawl through. I went in with Trigger at first because it probably really wasn’t geared for 2 year olds. Brad was in there also and helped Trigger go up and down the slides at first. Then, I went up and down with him a few times. THEN, he was on his OWN…he absolutely LOVED it!!! He did still love to have Brad help him. I had gotten out of the jumpy after I was comfortable with Trigger in there on his own and I saw Trigger come out and start looking around. I walked toward him and yelled at him to let him know where I was…assuming he was looking for me. HAHA…after looking around, he made a beeline to Brad, and starting tapping him on the leg and pointed for him to get back in the jumpy. PRECIOUS! Just Precious.
Here are a few photos from the party!
First, we have the birthday girl. Isn’t she just the most precious little girl.
Time to eat…
I hate that Matt missed out on seeing Trigger having so much fun! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MALLORY!!!!
