Spring Break Adventures - Day 3

Chase went to Grampa and Gramma's for a sleepover with Zach, so the remaining boys and I went to the movies to see Gnomeo and Juliet in 3D.  It didn't end up being one of my favorite kid movies, but the boys thought it was "awesome". 

 

Caden wouldn't actually wear his 3-D glasses until after the movie was over.  So he watched the whole thing in a total blur, but he didn't seem to mind.  (Do you like how he's rocking the shades upside down?  He's not constrained by the laws of fashion.  Future trend setter, no doubt.) 

Afterwards, I asked the boys to sit and pose for some pictures, but all they could manage to do was stare longingly at the video games.  Sadly for them, I said a big NO to the games.  Look at their faces just gazing, so mesmerized, by the magical video games.  They're practically drooling.

Next we came home to round up Daddy and get some dindin.  (They're playing Tic Tac Toe...apparently it can be quite the hysterical game.)

The dynamic is always so different when there are two children instead of three.  It doesn't even matter which kid is missing.  Even though it's a tad easier just from a logistics perspective, I really miss my babies when they're not with me.  These little adventures just aren't the same without you, my Chaser.   We miss you, but we know you're having a super fun time!  (And thank you to Grampa and Gramma for giving Chase a spring break adventure of his own!)

Tomorrow is the BIG day for Cole to get his teeth pulled.  He's taking it like a man so far - not too worried or nervous at all.  This may be attributed to a few things.  First, I explained it very casually, you know, like the dentist is going to help some of your loose teeth come out to make space for your adult teeth.  Nothing serious.   But wait...there's more!  Oh yes, I can't forget to mention that the Tooth Fairy brings something EXTRA special when the dentist helps your teeth come out.  (And it doesn't hurt that we got some Jello and Pudding from the store today in case that's what he feels like eating afterwards.)  Fingers crossed for a positive outcome!
