Now, the best part of a party is cake and presents. (along with seeing all our close family and friends) But the key to Mr. Elliot is he hates the sounds of plastic, paper, anything that sounds like a trash bag. So add that to unwrapping presents and he's not loving it. He screamed in fact. Yes, my kid is terrified of paper. So Eric and I had to unwrap his gifts for him. For the cake aspect, he wasnt thrilled with that either. He decided he didnt like his hands all gooey. So that was sort of a bust as well. In the end we all had fun.
Elliots party was a blast. We really enjoyed seeing all our family and friends. Elliot loved all his gifts. I also think everyone had a great time. Its always nice being able to get together with family.
We had one more first this weekend. Elliot got to go play in the creek with his cousins! He absolutely loved it. When Eric took him out due to Elliot being cold he screamed, and tried to get back down. He just splashed and splashed and was so excited playing in the water. Before you ask, yes we had him slathered in sunscreen, and he had a uv, rash guard swim set on. We made sure to cover all our bases.
While it was a fun weekend it was a long one for me. I overdid myself, and am now resting at home. The fun this weekend was totally worth my pain. I hurt, but am happy that we were able to have the party at all. It was an original worry of mine that I wouldnt be up to it.
Here are some pics from the weekend. Enjoy!
