Addison's First Birthday Party

After lunch today, we headed for Addison's first birthday party. We got there much earlier than the party was set to start, in order to spend some time with them. It was great. The kids were super excited to see KK, Addison, BB & Luke (their dog)!! That is the order Ashton puts them in. LOL. The kids played around inside trying to get Addison to walk and then took it outside to jump and play basketball. It was tons of fun for everyone. We had a big cookout and then wrapped it up with some cake and presents. Everyone was worn out!!




We gave Maddie a quick bath and dressed her in her pjs so that she could go to sleep on the way home. Boy did she.... less than 10 minutes in to the drive. She was exhausted!!



Another first yesterday!! We seem to be having a lot of those lately. Ashton spent the night at his KK's house. Yes, I've lost my mind! I left my baby boy a good hour and a half from home ALL night!! Since his big sleepover with Kaleb, he wants to spend the night everywhere. The other day he asked to stay at the Brooks House, a women and childrens' shelter here in Lebanon, when we dropped the kids off after taking them to Pump it Up. He doesn't seem to understand that you can't just spend the night where ever you want, when you want to. I've been trying to explain to him that you have to be invited and then we will talk about it. So far, we've had a few breakdowns over NOT getting to stay somewhere, but I think he'll get the hang of it. Much better than me, when I was a kid. I wouldn't stay anywhere without crying hysterically OR having to go back home. I was a whimp!!!
