Happy Fall Y'all

We celebrated Sean's 3rd birthday on 09/12. We had beautiful weather; truly the perfect day. We went to McDonalds for breakfast and then to Memorial Park. Sean was surrounded by friends & family. He was a little crabby because he woke up early & his nap was pushed back, but by the time Connor arrived, he was ready to party! After his nap, we opened all of his presents. We finished the night at McDonalds with Grandma, Puppa, Max & Jackson. 09/15 - Grandpa Larry picked Sean up from school & they went to see his work. Sean liked the elevator. He had to hold Grandpa Larry's hand so "he" wasn't scared though. ;) 09/16 - Sean had his 3 year old check up today. He's 39" and weighs 36.5 lbs. He had to get a hemoglobin count, which requires a prick on the finger and a flu shot. :( He wore his "brave patient" sticker all day. We went to the cider mill with Aunt Annette, Connor & Ella. It was perfect cider mill weather - 67 & sunny. The boys had a blast playing, picking apples, eating donuts & drinking cider. 09/17 - Happy Birthday Grandpa Jim!!! We all got together for dinner at Ram's Horn for Grandpa Jim's birthday. Sean took Grandpa Jim golfing afterwards for his birthday. Such a nice boy... 09/18 - Sean hung out with Grandma while I went to dinner at California Pizza Kitchen with good friends. Happy Birthday Aunt Annette! 09/19 - I did the baby walk with our small group in honor of Aubrianna Bishop, Paul & Jenny's daughter who passed away in 2007. Sean stayed with Grandma, then Grandpa Jim until I got home. After nap, Sean went to Grandma's while I went to dinner with Aunt Mary, Amanda & Scott to celebrate Amanda's 25th birthday. 09/20 - I was SO sick at this point. We were suppose to go to Angelina & Brianna's 4th birthday party, but I had a bad cold. Sean went to church with Grandpa Jim and after nap we went to the Mach's to start our Crazy Love study. 09/23 - Happy Birthday Mr. Barney!! After our normal routine of going grocery shopping with Grandpa Jim, we went to Chuck E. Cheese with Aunt Annette, Connor & Ella. The boys bicker, but they adore each other. I told Sean that Connor had to get a shot & we were taking him to CEC to cheer him up. Sean cried for a half hour and said, "I love Connor, he's my best friend, I don't want him to get a shot!". I told him he's a good friend. I wish it didn't upset him so much though. We had dinner at church with our small group and then Sean went downstairs to his "class". He loves being there on Wednesday nights. 09/24 - We had our weekly dinner at Ram's Horn. Sean got a head band with bats on it from Grandma. He loves halloween decorations. They scare him a little bit, but he loves them. 09/25 - We were at the Surgery Center at 7:00 am. Sean's ear tube surgery was a success!! It was tough for him to leave us and it was tough for him to come out of anesthesia. Other than that, he was great! We went to Connor's later that morning, Grandpa Jim came over for a visit early afternoon and then we went to Grandma's to visit & welcome Great Gram that evening. 09/26 - We went to breakfast and daddy & Sean searched for the perfect rock outside of Cracker Barrell. We stopped at the grocery store & then went to visit Great Gram & bring her soup. After our nap, we went to Mr. Barney's 60th birthday celebration. Sean was devastated that Aya's balloon flew up into the air. She didn't care, but Sean was sad for her. Such a tender heart. It took us over an hour to get home from 15 & Ryan because of construction. Urg... 09/27 - After church, we went to lunch to see Ms. Toni with Grandpa Jim & Paiger. 09/28 - We visited our friends at Father Murray's for crafts. Sean was ready to go home by the end of it. He said, "I don't want to go see the birdies with Daddy again. I want to go home!". Nuff said. 09/30 - We visited Great Gram and Sean dumped out all of her stuffed animals. He even took home a beat up german shepherd doll and told Gram he'd take good care of it. :) We went to dinner with Daddy & Grandma and then to church. 10/01 - Dinner at Ram's Horn - SUPRISE! After dinner, Sean went golfing with Grandma Sue, Grandpa Larry, Grandpa Jim & Paiger. He let Paiger win this time because she is his friend. It's very cold for early October, so tonight, I vote that we cuddle & watch movies. Wonder how that'll go over with Sean. ;)
