Madison Trip

Fuzz and I (Reese stayed home with David) headed to Madison last weekend and I think we both enjoyed it just being the two of us.  We had an uneventful drive down and made it in good time.  Fuzz said for the last 1 hour of the drive, "Tee-Tee's house?  Sleep at Katie's house?" so I knew he was excited to get there.  When we got there, he was so excited to see everyone.

Friday night, we headed to their YMCA and Fuzz got to play in their awesome bouncy house.  The funniest thing was that they had to wait in line (patience is not one of his strong suits) before they went into the house and Tyra did an awesome job of making sure he did so.  He had an absolute blast crawling all over the place with T.

The next morning we went to Tyra's fourth (crazy how time flies) birthday party at Bean Sprouts.  The kids all made homemade pizzas and cheese covered tomatoes.  I wasn't sure how Fuzz was going to handle it but he did pretty well.  He was hungry as he was making the pizza so as much of the toppings went into his mouth as they did on the pizza.  They had a full kitchen set as well as a bunch of other toys so on top of getting to make his own pizza he got to play with a bunch of new stuff!

After the birthday party, we headed back and all of the kids took a monster nap.  Cullen's grandparents made a sausage and polenta dinner that night (Fuzz really liked the "hot dogs").  We then took them to watch the Christmas lights display at a public park which all of the kids loved.  They kept yelling out what they were seeing and we were amazed as to all the stuff they knew!

The next day, we opened presents and it was hilarious trying to keep the kids away from taking each others toys!  Cullen opened his present from Fuzz and Reese and as clear as day yelled, "CAR TRANSPORTER" which is exactly what the present was.  I'm not even sure I knew what it was called :)  Fuzz and Reese both got awesome "sleepers" (sleeping bags) and Fuzz was so excited to crawl right in. (side note...pic taken below was when were were home...)

Fuzz had so much fun chasing Tyra around the bouncy house and playing (or stealing) trains with Cullen and I had so much fun getting to hang out with Mama G and her cute little bump (due in Feb).  I know I say this every time we get back from Madison but I really do wish we lived closer to them because the kids are just getting closer and closer...
