Birthday party x 2

Collin had a full day today attending TWO birthday parties for his buddies. This morning, we went to Isabel's party at a local restaurant. Collin likes this place because it has a sandbox AND a bunch of animals that the kids can feed. Collin was not interested in feeding the animals himself because he was really scared of them...especially the horses. He did not mind standing there to watch me or someone else feed them but he did not want to hold his hand out. He did like watching the chicken though.

After lunch of hamburgers and fries (Collin only ate a few fries because he was too distracted by the other activities), it was time to play in the sandbox with the other kids.

Cake was next which was full of purple and pink icing. He usually likes to just stick his finger in the icing, but this time, he ate almost the entire slice of cake. His face was FULL of icing. It was time to go home and rest before the next party began which was a pool party. He only napped for 30 minutes on the way home. He still rested before the party.

We got to the next party and he was bashful at first. Ethan, the birthday boy, was not there yet so Collin did not know anyone there. He did find the playroom and started to warm up a little to the other kids. Then, it was time to get into the pool. He had a great time sliding down the little kiddie slide into the pool. I caught him but only after he landed in the water. I then made him swim to the edge (which means kick as I held him) and made him get out of the pool by holding onto the edge of the pool and climbing out. He did this at least 10 times and did not get tired of it once. He then found the water gun and played with that until it was time to get out and have dinner. He ate a hot dog and a TON of strawberries before it was time for......yep.....cake again!

Daddy met us in the area for dinner and so did Justin and Shelley. For as long of a day he had, Collin did great.
