Birthday Fun

Today we went out to Issaquah to a little neighbor's 2nd birthday that they had at Gymboree Play and Music. The kids had a really fun time. I think Emilio had forgotten the times we had belonged to Gymboree in Chicago. We went to music class there for a while in the winter when it was too freezing cold to do anything outside. Anyway, at the birthday today the kids got to play on all the soft appartuses they had available in the gym. They also did some singing with the Gymboree staff member, the parachute and bubbles (an all time fav of all the kids). Gymboree bubbles are a trip too because they last forever. We have some and we call them Phantom Bubbles because the next day you'll see a random bubble that lasted all night come around the corner. Wierd! Anyway, the kiddos also got all sugared up with cake and juice (my kids slurp the stuff down quick cause they don't get juice at home). So, overall it was a nice b-day party and a fun outing with Milo and Gabi. Nice way to do a party for the parents too, it is organized, fun, ran by someone else and no mess to clean up at home. Too bad it is way too expensive for our budget! Emilio is starting to study other kids birthdays and wonders when he'll get to be the center of attention. September is approaching all too quickly, so I better get on the planning train quick! This year I'll have a three year old that expects a little more than a Move In/Cinco De Mayo/b-day party which is what we did for Gabi on her 1st this year. Poor little thing, but she still had fun. I'm thinking a Monster's Inc. theme for Emilio since that is the movie he choose to watch over and over again. But, it could change, we shall see.
