The birthday party that never was….

Landry got to have his party at school the Thursday before his actual birthday.  We took cookies and juice for the kids and had a fun time!

I think in the 30 minutes we were there, Ansley had approximately 10 cookies to herself.

Poor guy does NOT like being sung to.

Being the great mother I am, I didn’t take pictures of the birthday boy on his actual birthday.  Horrible, I know.  Chris was working, so it was just me and the kids.  We had donuts for breakfast, met Grammy & Bam Bam for lunch at McDonalds and hung out with Zia.

We took him to the Mart so he could pick out a toy for his birthday since his party wasn’t til the next day.  He chose a tonka tow truck which was really cool, until we got home and he decided he wanted the helicopter toy.  Needless to say, his Zia went back to the Mart to pick it up for him and gave it to him that nite.  He was in heaven!

We spent several hours working on party favors and getting things ready for the party.  Here’s the chocolate dipped rice crispy treats *idea courtesy of pinterest!*

Sunday morning when Landry woke up, he sounded like he was barking and he literally could not breathe very good.  The minute Chris walked in, Landry and I left for the urgent care.  The got him in immediately since he was having a hard time breathing and after a breathing treatment, steroid shots, and being tested for everything, they decided he just had croup.  Party CANCELLED.  I know he’s at an age where he won’t remember, but it seriously made me sad to have to cancel it. 

Anywho.  We had a mini party for him and gave him his new dune buggy

Which sister thoroughly enjoyed her party favor in while brother was napping.

And Grammy and Bam Bam brought gifts and cupcakes!

He got an awesome Mater lego set from Alan and Nancy.

Terry, Trissa and the boys came and hung out that afternoon and after having so many steroids in one day, Landry was hyper!  It was nice outside luckily though, so the boys all got to play on the new ride!

Hopefully we’ll have a make up party soon for the big 3 year old!  But overall, for having to cancel his party, I think he had a great birthday!

  3. Glad Landry was well enough to enjoy his special day. Ansley had a good time too. Devonn brought me 3 cupcakes she had fixed for the party.Landry looked so cute at the school parytime. You have been blessed with two beautiful children. The red coat will keep him warm this winter.

  4. Looks like Landry still had a great birthday despite not feeling good. Ansley didn't see to mind either. :)

  5. Poor guy! Looks like he had a good time even though his party was cancelled. Fortunately he probably won't even remember!
