Birthday Party

As many of you know, Dan's birthday was Sunday the 13th. Dan went and picked up the boys from my mom's yesterday and when he gets home he proceeds to pull the van in the garage. Corbin starts yelling at Dan and tells him he can not park in the garage. When Dan inquires to the reasoning, Corbin tells him, "Where we gonna have your birthday party if you park here daddy?" We had the summer birthday parties in the garage, so Corbin is quite certain that is the party area. Then Corbin is all concerned where Dan is going to put all his gifts! It is funny to see how the mind processes data, even as early as age 3! They figure out that birthday's are for gifts, or at least they are sure they are. I come home and the first thing Corbin says to me, "Where is Daddy's tractor cake?" He had been talking about it all week long, so of course I had to go buy a cake and put a couple JD tractors on it. I think Corbin may of enjoyed Dan's birthday more than anyone else.

Dan was kind of naughty this year. I bought him a gift for his birthday right before Christmas that I put up till his birthday. What does Dan do? He takes his Christmas money and buys what I already bought him. I still gave that gift to him and let HIM return it! I am glad we have summer birthdays for the kids. They birthday's so close to Christmas make gift giving hard.

Corbin started school last week. Day one went extremely well and he was happy to go. However, day 2 was not GOOD AT ALL!!!!! He stayed up late the night prior and was so extremely tired that he could not stop crying. Dan was out of work at 1pm so Dan had to go get him. We are hoping tomorrow will be good. We are stopping the afternoon naps and hoping if we can get him sleeping a little earlier that will nip the problem in the bud. I guess we shall see after tomorrow how it goes. More to come.....have a great week all.
