Superman, Spiderman, Batman... all portrayed as 'heroes' to little boys, who are supposed to idolize them. However, we know different! Soldiers, policemen and firefighters are REAL heroes. So, in honor of them, Kayne will have a birthday party with a theme of "REAL Superheroes." It will feature pictures of Kayne as a firefighter, policeman and soldier. We will also be asking guests to each bring ONE item for a Thanksgiving care package for the soldiers!
Today a friend of mine let us come to the firehouse where she works and photograph Kayne on the fire engine! Rae was amazing with him... letting him sit in the drivers seat, play with her gear, and even gave us a grand tour of the station. Then, to top it off--she called the police station and had a car come down and Kayne got his picture taken in that as well! The pictures came out great, and we all (me, Kayne and Jules) had a great time. A BIG thank you to Rae and the firestation for letting us come--they even had a call while we were there so we got to
* Tuesday *
We had a crazy and stressful day today (as usual). I was woken up this morning by Elyse who said "Mommy, I went to get the syrup from the cupboard, and there are ants EVERYWHERE!" So, I spent all day emptying entire cupboards and cleaning and organizing them (while singing Jack Hartmann pre-k songs with Kayne and making words on the fridge with his alpha-magnets).
At the end of the day, I was exhausted--so I canceled an appointment that Elyse had for yesterday afternoon and we stayed home and ate dinner together. We are running around EVERY night, so it was certainly a nice break to not have to do that. Elyse was excited about not having to have a sandwich in the car for dinner :-) I made chicken parmesean, and invited my Dad and Jules over because my Mom had a late meeting and was not going to be home to make dinner. Kayne had his FIRST SPAGHETTI and also got his FIRST TATTOO!! Aunt Jules went to Miami last week and brought him a sheet of baby tattoos. Yea! He looks so cute wearing his Mom tatt on his arm! LOL! I am including pics of Tuesday's 'festivities'--I need a VACATION!
