Baby, you're a Firework

Happy Independence Day!


Last night our town had a pretty impressive fireworks display. It was surprising because we live in a little town, and we certainly didn't expect such a big show.

We got Aidan ready to go (by putting him in jammies before we left) and decided it was worth keeping him up 2 hours past bedtime to see the show.
The fireworks started and I turned to him and asked him if they were cool, and he said "yeah!"....and then started to cry hysterically. Yikes.


You can't tell, but Nani's glasses lit up




Ryan got him calmed down and he was ok laying his head against Ry's chest while his ears were covered by Ry's hands. Then he kept telling us the fireworks weren't scary......and we could tell he was definitely trying to convince himself of that, haha.


Look, at that, Poppy!

Hanging with Gramma Di

By the time we got in the car to come home he was saying he liked the fireworks and that he wanted to watch them again. Yeah, ok.
On the other spectrum of things Mason slept through the entire show and to top it all off he slept for a 6 hour stretch last night!! Yayyyyyyyy!!! Hopefully it isn't a fluke and he will do it again!


I got Aidan a cool light-up toy for the show, and he was too terrified to even appreciate it!

Well, it was just me awake with a sleeping Mason but now the house is starting to stir, so off I go!
