Busy!

So my dad's flight was a little delayed yesterday, but just by 30 minutes. Gavin, Cailean and I met him inside the airport. We were waiting for him to come down the escalator and when Gavin saw him, he was excited! We said goodbye to Cailean since he was flying to Dallas and took my dad to our house. We got out of the car and Gavin had a glove for his Grandpop, a ball and Gavin had his glove on. I told dad he could go in and change into shorts, but nope...he didn't want to disappoint Gavin! So, they played catch for a good 30 minutes or so. Then, Gavin wanted to show him his basketball skills and we did that for about 10 minutes and then off to his bike! He had to show off riding his bike down Linda Court. By then it was time to pick up Ian. So, off to Kingswood and this time we didn't do carpool. We stood right outside the main doors, so Ian could see his Grandpop. He was grinning ear to ear and ran to him!

We left Kingswood and headed to Frankie's Fun Park. Gavin caught a cat nap on the way. At Frankie's we did the gokarts twice, bumper boats once, batting cage and some arcade games. Ian and I got my dad and Gavin drenched in the bumper boats, but I got pretty soaked, too! Ian did well in the batting cage. He made contact (foul tips) three times and he was very happy! Gavin did it as well (slow softball pitch) and hit it three times. It's an annual event...every May when my dad flies down we all go to Frankie's!

After Frankie's we headed to Connolly's Irish Pub for dinner. It's soooooo good! I thought dad would like the music and atmosphere along with the food. Ian ate his entire bowl of spaghetti and 2/3 of Gavin's. He was still hungry!

We drove home and then the boys got ready for bed. Ian read some books to his Grandpop and Gavin was asleep before his head hit the pillow!

This morning I worked and my dad watched Gavin. Dad ate Gavin's donut (he thought it was Ian's and Ian was already at school) and Gavin kept asking for hours, "Where is my donut?" LOL LOL Poor Grandpop! So, this afternoon to end the question, dad bought him a honeybun. Well, Gavin asked where the sprinkles were! The donut he started to eat this morning had sprinkles on it!!!! Why lots of talk of donuts? Well, dad bought donuts for the teachers at Kingswood as a "thank you" for taking great care of his grandson and the rest of the kids! The teachers were very excited when they saw Ian and I deliver them today!

Before picking up Ian from school, we drove to Super Target to get a mattress pad and cover along with Gavin's first set of twin bed sheets! Thanks GRANDPOP! Then, we picked up Ian and went bowling. We had some thunderstorms today and bowling was also on the list! They love going bowling with my dad. So, we did that (I so do not like that game!!!). We got home and had a nice dinner...had baths and then read some books. Cailean arrived just in time to say goodnight to them and they were asleep by 7:20pm!

Tomorrow night will be Gavin's first night in a big boy bed. Not a toddler bed! He is going from his crib to a twin bed. I'm a little sad about the whole thing, but know that it's time. He is very excited, so I need to be excited. LOL That will be dad's and Cailean's project tomorrow. He could really stay in the crib because he only climbed out of it once over a year ago! But...he is almost 3 1/2 years old and he has been asking about it.
