11-13-21 good night sweet bike and Happy Bday Di!
I woke up to a delightful ‘Hi Nana” and a crawl in cuddle from Emmy. 4 is such and interesting age, she definitely is showing that 2 with a better vocabulary side of things today. Jake is so calm and consistent with her, I love seeing him parent in action. I got up and make us all brunch of ham, eggs and Pillsbury biscuits. I have to admit sharing breakfast with others will always be my favourite meal to share. After breakfast Emmy tried on a costume in the tickle trunk, put on her Dads glasses and said “I am Jake”. I am pleased to know she saw the same face in breakfast as I did.
Once we were all ready we got dressed and went outside. First chore was to put my motorcycle to bed for the winter and then put up the inflatables. Sadly as night fell I noticed most of them don’t light any more but I leave them up all day anyway.
We all came in and I rented Paw Patrol the Movie as Emmy and I both felt Jake needed to see it. I enjoyed it just as much and may have even noticed more the second time. Emmy was funny asking Jake if she could tell him a spoiler about Rubble’s luggage. He said no but she laughed and pointed out what she was going to say when it happened. I took Emmy and Sawyer to see it when it came out and she remembers all the small details! After the movie she was hungry so I got making dinner and even though it wasn’t anything Jake would like.. he did! Win!
After dinner Emmy asked if she could give me a make-over. Make-up and hair. Of course I said yes and she did her finest. She then chose a picture she had coloured and signed earlier with her Dad and her name to give to Diane for her birthday. I had explained earlier that my friend was having a birthday and I wanted to go give her a hug. She added my name to the picture and together we went to give it to Diane in our fancy makeup. It was too late stay but we had hugs and wished her a Happy Birthday. I was happy to see the Dance Party was about to begin and I hope she won.
Once we got home a bath was in order complete with Minion science bath bomb in a container. I made it explode inadvertently. She got some in her eyes but it was more hysteria than an actual injury. Bed soon followed and then I finished my puzzle while Ashlée showed up to entertain Jake in a few games of crib. I entertained them with Alter Ego. We all felt the same about this cheesy CGI music show. With Will.I.Am at the helm, I wanted it to be sooooo much better. I then introduced them to The Masked Singer which in spite of the hammy acting of the judges we enjoyed much more.
