Weekly Glance (Monday, March 21st - Sunday, March 27th, 2011)

• Alexander celebrated 4th Birthday
• Had a good week at school - no major issues at all, however did get a bit grouchy in the afternoon Weds & Thursday
  
• Ms. Debbie (his younger toddler teacher) is now his teacher once again along with Ms Cassie (Lindsay moved to the Older Toddler room)
• Woke up on Monday with a croup-like cough but thankfully was gone pretty much by the time we got to school
• Brought in cupcakes to school on Tuesday to celebrate his birthday
• Family birthday dinner of pizza followed by birthday cake & presents
• Went to Stop & Shop with Mommy on Thursday
• So tired Thursday night that he fell asleep in the car and even after trying to wake him several times, Mommy finally put him to bed.
  
• He slept for 11 hours Thursday night and also took a nap Friday at school
• All that sleep makes for a very grouchy little boy
• Had a horrible temper tantrum Friday night and didn't go to bed until at least 10:30p
• Saturday was a very busy day - gymnastics in the morning and then after lunch, we went to his birthday party with his school friends
• His birthday party with this friends was an indoor glow-in-the-dark minigolf party
• Kids played a round of mini-golf, they ran around, played a few games (while I stalled time because Mommy left important stuff at home so Daddy rescued me out)
• They had cake & ice cream and continued to run around (I'm shocked no one hurt themselves)
• After the party on Saturday, Mommy & Alexander went out to dinner to Applebee's
• Mommy & Alexander played a lot of games once we got home to keep him active until bedtime (to help wear him out)
• Actually didn't fall asleep as quickly as I expected due to how busy his day was but had no issues
• Sunday was Daddy's birthday
• Woke up in a very good mood - let Daddy sleep in, and planned to go out to lunch but due to behavior/not listening we stayed home
  
• Not listening/behavior resulted in an hour long temper tantrum
• Did have a better afternoon once he calmed down - Daddy opened his presents, then they played ball outside and then came inside and played with his racetrack
• Tub and family dinner for Daddy's birthday and then a very quick bedtime with no issues
