December 19th: Donuts for my 3 year old! We celebrated Maia’s birthday again, a day late, since Daylight Donuts are closed on Sundays. We got a box of donuts and my big girl was so happy! She woke up really late after the excitement at Papa’s, 9:45!!! I told her the donut plan though and she very happily got dressed. And she asked for white pants, a white shirt, and her new little Mexican dress on top. I tried to get her to wear that the other day, and I guess it took a while to sink in, but she was adorable in it! She chose a pink donut, and then a chocolate donut. Yummy.
After we got the donuts, we headed over to Papa’s to collect the Bairs and Serenity and DZ. They loved their sleepover, and Donovan never wants to leave Braley’s side again. So cute. We went to the Discovery Lab. The tape tunnel is still a blast, Donovan found friends to play human foosball with, and Maia enjoyed the ball vacuum. The make it lab had coffee filter snowflakes. So fun!
We got Jason Mazzios for lunch, as he pines for that when he’s away =) The kids ran around playing like crazy, and Maia shut herself in her room for some quiet time. After Papa arrived, he played Trouble with the kids, and then Dad, Jason, Brandon and I played Ticket to Ride. Donovan quickly took my place and we played as a team. I’m still astounded that he can sit happily through long games like that, but he LOVES it. Such a Wainright =)
I had made chicken spaghetti with the leftovers from yesterday, and Tayler and Xander came to join the rest of us for the meal! It was so great to see them! Xander is such a sweetie! I love that they are close by.
Serenity and Donovan are listening to Christmas music and sleeping under the tree tonight. We all snuggled in my bed to read Christmas books. Moments I cherish =)
