This afternoon we went to Wacky Tacky for a 3rd birthday party for the boys' friend, Hannah. Wacky Tacky is a gigantic multi-level indoor play place, sort of like a McDonald's playground on tons of steroids. It was great because Sutton could navigate all the different areas by himself without needing too much assistance, and there was plenty of head room for me to stand up as I tagged along with him. They have an area set up with a bunch of brightly colored air cannons circling over a ball pit. The kids are to grab a basket down in the pit and collect the soft foam balls and then climb up to the next level to load and shoot their cannon (which gets shot back down into the pit again). It's all very cool and lots of fun! The boys are definitely the appropriate age to really enjoy this place, so I predict some mornings at Wacky Tacky in our future - especially once the summer heat hits us in a couple of months!
Sutton at the air guns - once he got over the fact that they're kind of loud, he LOVED it!
Mr. Itchy Trigger Finger - I couldn't reload the gun fast enough for him!
Hanging out with Daddy in the ball pit
The balloon clown made him a really lame hat, and he was very proud of it for about two minutes.
Waiting patiently for pizza, cake, and the highlight of the day - a tiny bit of orange soda!
We stopped at the park on our way home, hoping that the boys might burn off the rest of their sugar rush. It definitely worked - both of them were exhausted and went to bed nicely!
Saw was laughing at himself saying "I was just kidding you, Mom." I have no idea what he was supposed to be kidding me about, but apparently it was hysterical. :)

Just wanted to say I wanted to comment on your MTM post on your other blog but I wasn't able to (you might want to check it out). It was so cute - I never even thought to cut out shapes of cheese!!
