Then we visited my parents, who had just gotten back from Cozumel. Finally we ended our Saturday at Erik's cousin's, who have the twins Paige and Carter. It was a nap-free day so of course Kade fell asleep about 32 seconds into our drive home.
On Sunday Lady A and S came for a visit and Kade kept them busy the whole time. He drags them upstairs and downstairs and to his room and to the porch. He gave a valiant effort to get them outside but Mother Nature hates us this spring so it was too cold. Of course A & S happily oblige to all of his requests so Erik and I get to sit! I've never been so excited to just sit before.
Are all boys as busy as he is??! :-) I tell him all the time that he's "such a boy" and he just laughs then goes on wrestling me, or throwing balls at me, or "HI-YA"ing me, or tackling me. The other day I heard him whisper to Erik, "Let's tell Mommy to come downstairs and then we'll tackle her!" Erik thinks this is hilarious and completely encourages it. The problem is, Kade is a big kid (3'4") and I'm a short mom (5'2") so he really can tackle me! And even win sometimes! One of these days I'm not going to be able win the wrestling match and Erik is going to come home from work to find me pinned under Kade! And, believe me, Erik is excited for that day to come.
