Day 1 - Staying with Aunt Bengi & Uncle Tim - The week begins!




After a trip to the grocery store for kid food, (fruit loops, bananas, grapes, cookies, chips etc...)  I went to pick up the boys at my grandmas house.  Brady was ready to go.  Ethan however was a little apprehensive to leave grandma Kathi. 

After a 20 minute attempt at removing the car seats from grandmas car to mine in the 100 degree heat we finally got them unhooked.  Geez!!!!!  Things have sure changed in a mere 8 years.  Then we were off.  Ethan cried till we got out in the country and located some cows.  He kept pointing at them.  I'm wondering what he will think when they are practically in the front yard at our house.

We arrived home and Abby was the first one Ethan ran to.  She was really good with him.  Unfortunately he got scared of the dogs when they stopped by earlier so he cries when he sees them.  I have them quarantined in the kitchen so they won't scare him but if he even sees them he cries.  He loves the little ones but he big ones aren't cool with him.  We also have two little kittens outside.  He loves them.  He keeps following them around.

Our first dinner consisted of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and ramen noodle soup.  Ethan opted for a banana instead of the soup.  They all ate really well. 
When Tim got home we went out and got the baby bed.  We put it back together and in our room.  I got his blanket out and he said "night night".  I fixed his sippy cup with water but he was almost asleep by the time I got back with the cup.  Tim woke up around midnight and was like do you think he is ok does he need more blankets?  I loved the way Tim looked in the crib.  It reminded me of him with our kids.  So sweet. 

So day one wasn't too bad.  No major fights or accidents.  Whew!!!!!
