St Patrick's Day

We tried to make St Patrick's Day as fun as possible but Brayden was sick! (I had to take him to the doctor the Saturday before and he ended up having croup, two ear infections, and a fever of 102!) We had planned on taking him to see Horton Hears A Who but didn't with him being sick! So instead we had a fun green colored breakfast of waffles, painted toast, and green milk. Brayden really enjoyed helping to make breakfast. Then after breakfast, a whole lot of sleeping went on! We did manage to run a couple of errands later in the day (I HAD to get out of the house!) and Shane came over for dinner later that night. We didn't have traditional St Patrick's Day food but did have this fun lime punch to drink and these cute pot-o-gold jello cups for dessert. Brian and Shane both thought I was hilarious for trying to celebrate the holiday, but I think they secretly enjoyed it! (Thanks Megan for the fun ideas!)

What a good mom you are. I totally forgot about the "holiday" all together. I can't believe that Brayden just falls asleep like that. Natali will still only fall asleep in her crib/bed.

I totally forgot to say until I read Becca's comment that Brayden had fallen asleep with a sucker in his mouth even! Thus the red lips! Being sick really took it's toll on my little guy!
