Fun, Busy Day

Yesterday was an exhausting day, but it was really fun, too. We got up around 8 and Kaleb sat with me on the couch and ate his "pretty ohs" (fruit loops) and drank his apple juice. My parents came to town a little before 10 and we headed over to the Whistlestop Festival in beautiful downtown Waynesboro. At first it was the typical walk around the circle of tents type of day, but once we got our food and drinks we headed over to the inflatible jumpy area. Happy bought Kaleb an arm band and we put him in one of the jumps. That boy LOVES to jump. It took him a little while to get the hang of it, but after about 45 minutes of jumping he was smiling and red-faced. A few times he wanted us to give him his juice through the little spots on the side and would be really unhappy when we wouldn't/couldn't. Towards the end you could tell he was getting sleepy because he would lay down on the jump like he was going to sleep. It was so odd to see my "baby" jumping around in a big boy jump. I also took him down one of those tall inflatable slides and he loved it! I didn't get to see his face, but they told me that he was pleased as punch (as they say). After we dragged him out of the jumpy house screaming and crying he took a nap at the house with my parents while Eric and I went to Meridian to get haircuts and a gift for Will's first birthday party. We met them all at my Aunt Sybby's house for Will's birthday and had a good time watching Will and Kaleb walk around and play. Kaleb played with Will's toys before he ever got a chance to, and we're definitely going to have to get him a wagon to pull around. Amelia came home with us and spent the night instead of driving all the way back to her house. I like when she comes to visit because she makes me laugh. School starts back tomorrow and then it's 7 busy weeks before summer.
