We went on a walk today. We thought it would be a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon and have the kids get some energy out. It started out nice enough but quickly turned. Bailey, my coordinated daughter, fell twice off her scooter within the first block. She, of course, would cry and while she was doing that Holden kept falling off his scooter. So we walked back and got his big wheel. We set off again. Holden is totally out of control as usual and falls off his big wheel (how you manage that I'll never know) and then Bailey falls off her scooter again.
We finally get everyone going and make it a few blocks successfully. Brayden and I are feeling pretty good. Having fun watching Parker learn is roller blades. Life is good. Then Holden is starting to ram himself into Bailey and knocking her over. This happens a couple times. Bailey, of course, crying and throwing things again. Then Parker and Bailey are tired of Holden cutting them off so they go ahead and Holden starts crying. He is devistated that he's not "first". He then continues to cry the last 2 blocks to our house, while he's riding his big wheel and looking back at Brayden and I to make sure we're still there.
Aren't Sunday walks the best!!!

Holden
Here are some of Holden's newest cutenesses:
Holden tells me all the time, "You're the best mom on the whole wide world." But the other day he says,
Holden: You're the best mom on the whole wide world.
Mom: Oh, thanks. ( thinking he's so sweet)
Holden: Mom, what does that mean, you're the best mom ever???
If you go back a few post you'll recall Holden telling me I have a chubby bum (and pinching it) as we are walking through the gym. Now I think this is because I tell him all the time he has a chubby bum and I pinch his.
Well he as taken this to a whole new level. It has become a hourly compliment. He's constantly telling everyone "you're so chubby" and then he'll squeeze you and give you kisses. We've now discovered that he thinks chubby means soft. So if Holden calls you chubby please don't be offended. It's his greatest compliment.
Kissing has also been taken to a whole new level. He is obsessed with kissing everyone. Don't turn your back or you backside will get kisses. He has even gotten in trouble at school for kissing his friends. Brayden is quick to say this is my fault. But what can I say, he's a lover not a fighter!!!
