Well let's see. Who tries to play soccer, get soccer pictures made, attend a swim birthday party, entertain a Grandpa, put on a barnyard birthday, mow the yard, cook food, clean house and go shopping all done in under 12 hours? That's right a Whitlow. Not just any Whitlow but all 5 Wylie Whitlows.
Carolyn got her Bumblebeez soccer picture made minutes before her game against the Angels. This was no ordinary game, this was a rear kicking 8 - 2 of a whipping. Of course Carolyn was more concerned with 2 things, her hair/bow and hugging as many teammates as possible. Reece decided he needed to walk across the field numerous times while the game was in progress, totally oblivious to what was around him.
A little later in the day, Carolyn attended a swim party while Reece and Krista took naps. Grandpa showed up in his usual way, announcing to the world that he had arrived, with milk, juice and baby food. He could not understand why Gala was cleaning the bathroom when he needed to go. Blah Blah
Reece's 3rd. birthday party went off well. The guys played horseshoes while the girls and moms got everything ready. The theme was a barnyard party, complete with cowboy hats, a chicken egg hunt and a great big fat pig to eat. Actually the pig was a chocolate cake with pink icing. (This is the LAST time Reece will have a PINK cake!) We ate hotdogs and barbeque, yum, yum!
Reece enjoyed playing with his presents, until he finally crashed around 10:15pm. Carolyn was out at 8:30 sharp. I think his favorite was Thomas lego train set from the Phipp's. I wonder why that was his favorite????
Mom and Dad crashed soon after watching the video of the party 3 times. The best part of the party was Reece's reaction to everyone singing happy birthday. He was about to blow out the candles, then everyone started singing, and he turned into Mr. Bashful with a slight smile. Very cute.
