A Series Of Firsts For The Boy
Baby Picasso (yikes, he 's turning 4 in less than a month...maybe he needs a new nickname??) has been quite the adventurous child as of late. I'll guarantee one thing...there's never a dull moment around here.
In the past week, he has went from a tricycle to pedaling, and riding a bike with training wheels. Here he is in all his bike riding glory...

And,
Just yesterday he decided he would jump in the pool with his floaties on and attempt swimming on his own. Of course, it nearly scared me to death and I jumped in after him fully-clothed but it turns out he didn't need me. He swam fine on his own.

Another first coming up...his 4th birthday party. Wow. They really do grow up so fast. For his party, he wants a carnival at our local park. He's not asking for much is he?
So, we've rented the park for the day and I'm now trying to figure out decorations and carnival games. His love of Disney Cars and NASCAR is prompting us to have a race car theme for the carnival party. I've looked at Oriental Trading for ideas and supplies. I've got prizes and decorations but I'm seriously lacking in the creativity department. I need inexpensive game ideas that will work well outdoors. My sanity thanks you, my dear readers, in advance for your help and ideas. ;)Labels: biking, first swim, motherhood, race car theme birthday party
