We had a busy weekend at The Zimmerman's Zoo! Yesterday was Oliver's 2nd birthday. He woke up to a new cement mixer and dump truck (his requests) and a recycle truck. His choice for breakfast - pancakes. After breakfast, he became Mr. Fix-It when he tried out the tool set that Marta got him...Our Saturday mornings for the next couple of months are busy - activities started yesterday...Soccer for Oliver and Daddy and swimming for Carter and Marta (bless her!!). After activities it was a quick bath and then lunch and nap. While the boys napped, I went to a CAbi party at Margie's house and enjoyed some adult time and a glass of wine (or maybe 2, I'm not telling). ;) After nap, we road-tripped it to Falls Church to Kim and Amy's SIXTH annual dog BBQ. I can't believe it was the 6th year. We didn't bring our dogs b/c they're too crazy around a gang of other dogs, especially Amelia, and b/c we can't fit them in the car with the three of us and the three boys. Kim's roommate Genevieve, made a birthday cake for Amy and Oliver; he was in heaven when everyone sang them happy birthday. He had TWO pieces of cake (vanilla with chocolate frosting) and Amy sent him off with jelly beans for the car ride home. Surprisingly, he went to bed when we got home at 8pm!
This morning Carter worked with Le-Ane, another of our awesome helpers, while Doug and I took Oliver and Crosby to Party City so Oliver could help pick out stuff for the goodie bags to take into school on Tuesday for his birthday. After lunch/nap, we went over to a new friend's house for Happy Hour. They have 3 kids, their son is 5 days older than Carter, their daughter will be 2 in February and their newborn is 3 weeks old. They also have 2 dogs. They said that when they saw us walking our two dogs with the boys in the wagon (and I was pregnant), they knew that we had to be "cool" too. :)
Crosby was 4 months yesterday too. He's rolling ALL over the place and I swear he's going to crawl in a few weeks. He is so strong. He lays on his stomach and propels himself forward, his arms aren't quite strong enough yet. We've been working on sleep training with him, he's doing well! Will write about that soon. Took a photo of him in O's Pottery Barn chair this morning. He's sitting up well too. I told my mom that he's going to need his own chair soon (she bought C&O theirs)...
Another busy week ahead, leading up to Oliver's constrution-themed 2nd birthday party on Saturday...
