Ava’s getting to be such a big girl. Two weeks ago Ava had her first play-date. Well, two to be exact. Ava’s friends had been inviting her for years but the timing never seemed to be right. As luck would have it, it was my weekend and Ava received invites from both Arushi and Yanna. I dropped her off at Yanna’s on Sunday and then on the following Monday holiday I dropped her off at Arushi’s. She had a fantastic time and was all smiles when I picked her up.
Since then, she’s been back to Arushi’s once. Taking a play from my Mr. Mom playbook, I have extended invitations to a few of her friends to come play at Daddy’s house. Hopefully we’ll be able to orchestrate more play-dates soon. I know Ava and Alexandra are excited to show off their bedrooms and toys to their friends.
The fun didn’t stop with the play-dates. Alexander and Allie’s baby boy, Cameron was baptized this past weekend. Johnny’s family came in town for the baptizm so I took advantage of the opportunity to invite their 5 year old daughter Ellie over for a sleepover. All three girls had a blast. Needless to say they were a little excited so getting them to bed was a bit of a task. As it turned out, this was Ellie’s first sleepover. She was an absolute angel and hopefully we’ll have more cousin sleepovers soon.
