Balloons are like baby-crack, but way better for them*

March 4, 2010 in PSF, family, fun, photostory friday, play

*unless of course they try to eat them, because that’s really, really bad.

We went out for dinner.  To a real restaurant.  With both kids.  It doesn’t happen often.

And, it was just what we needed.

After dinner, the wonderful, genius waitress bought us 10 more minutes at the table by bringing us some fabulous balloons.

In fact, it bought us at least 20 minutes of fun at home, too.

Playing hide “balloon head Izzy.”

And, then “peek-a-boo.”

and a cutie

Followed by “reach for the sky.”

come here, balloon

And then, “I almost got it” (times two if you look in the back).

so close, now.

Shortly after, some “I see you.”

I see you.

With a quick shot with mommy and “you can’t see me through this blue balloon.”

So thankful for those extra balloon minutes at our house.  They sure made us all cheery.
So, maybe I should call balloons “family-crack.”

So much fun at the Serious Home! The girls are too cute with the balloons, and I'm glad you and Papa Bear enjoyed dinner! YAY!

We love balloons too…except when my Lily bites them, then I have to take them and she hates me forever! :(

What fun! Balloons are instant fun. :) When my son gets his hair cut he always gets a balloon afterward and that makes for additional playtime always. Glad you guys had a nice night out.

Love the one where she is reaching up for the balloon like "Wait! come back!"

Sounds like you guys had a fun night!

I used to love balloons! My favorite game was letting it go in the air (I know, so bad for the birds!) and seeing how long I can watch it.

My siblings are in love with balloons, they can't get enough of them, must be a toddler thing!
