Happy 4th of July!!!

Today was one of those awesomely wonderful days with big guy and it was July 4th!  He had a great night sleep following his family visit yesterday.  He woke up in bright spirits and wanted to play and have fun.  We relaxed in the morning before heading to breakfast at our favorite bagel place.  We sat outside and enjoyed the weather while munching on our muffins, bagels w/cream cheese, and eggs w/ turkey ham.  Big guy was loving life and ate like a champ.

We then went over to the july 4th fair, which happens to be at our favorite playground with sand.  We met up with Grandma C, Pop Pop J, and uncle I.  We ran around the playground and then went to go check out the fair.  We went to the bouncy obstacle course, bouncy house (2 times), and then played some junky games for some junky prizes.  Big guy had two lollipops ( see pic below), soft pretzel, popcorn, and lots of water.  We bought a bubble blower in the shape of a fish and spent a lot of time in the sand playground.  big guy was loving life with uncle I and hubs and I got to catch up with the grandparents.  Overall, a wonderful july 4th fair!

We headed home and got some pizza slices to go.  We ate pizza for lunch and then laid down and napped for two hours.  We got up and headed over to the outlets to get some deeply discounted clothes for our trip to disney!  Big guy was still groggy, so we grabbed the portable dvd player and popped Rio in for the ride, since it is about 45 minutes.  Hubs hopped in the back and they chowed on goldfish while I drove.  We got there around 4pm and shopped at the jcrew outlet, which big guy loves for some reason. Probably because there is a junky little toy shelf, lots of jewelry, and plenty of adorable young women who fawn all over him in there.  He's actually big enough for jcrew kid clothes, which I find mind boggling. I got him a pirate tshirt!  big guy walked around with a broken necklace and then was really upset when we didn't buy it.  He didn't want to leave the store and only the promise of going to the disney store got us outside.

We then went over to the disney store and picked up some monsters university gear, a towel and tshirt, along with some cute figurines for the plane ride.  We left the disney store, rode on some funny car rides and then went over to the ruby tuesday's for dinner.  Where we had a totally delightful dinner.  Big guy ate mini cheese burgers, fries, and from the salad bar, some broccoli and carrots.  definitely helped out by the speedy waitress and the thomas video playing on hubs' phone, we were in such good spirits, that we had dessert and coffee!  Overall, a great and wonderful day!!!!
