The Friday and Saturday before party day were packed with stuff we had to do. Friday we got the carpets cleaned so I scheduled Kristoffer's pictures that day since we had to be out of the house. He was such a ham during his photo shoot. Then we went to Grandma's house, Mike's work, out to Buffalo Wild Wings, Dollar Tree, Winco and finally back home. When we got home I still had to put the groceries away, put the house back together and give Kristoffer a bath before bed. Saturday we had to deep clean the house and attend 2 birthday parties. One is was for a friends daughter and the other was for my sister.
So by Monday morning we were all so exhausted. We had planned to take Kristoffer to the Zoo or something on his birthday but none of us wanted to leave the house. Plus Kristoffer had so many new things. So Kristoffer and I went to Dutch Bro's to get him his special birthday chocolate milk and to the post office to send off his pictures. The next night Kristoffer and I went on a movie date. We saw Ice Age Continental Drift. He wanted to leave 20 minutes before it ended. I told him it was almost over and we'd go home and see daddy. Since it was his birthday we let him eat whatever he wanted. He mostly just had milk all day. Even though he didn't eat his dinner he still got a cupcake.
I'm sad Kristoffer doesn't have an ounce of baby/toddler look to him anymore. Nor does he act like one either. His latest quotes that he's picked up from us are "Just a minute, I'm busy!" "I SAID I don't want it!"
or the latest one is if something about an accident happened Mike will say "Like our marriage" and I'll say "Like your face". Well Mike said the marriage part and Kristoffer pops up with "Like your face!" and started laughing. While I love all the new thing Kristoffer does or can do now I still miss my little baby.
He really wanted the star balloon at his party!
We got the shirt for his party and kept it put up til right before the party.
As you can see he was very EXCITED for his birthday cake!
