Let the Party begin!

Tomorrow my little boy turns 4. How that happened I don't know. In what world do I have a 4 year old? Oh yeah, the world that I will be living in starting tomorrow. Tomorrow we are having a party for him, but Grammy Markham was not able to come tomorrow, so she stopped by today with a present for Nate, and what a present it was- His own little jumping house.
We didn't have a good pump, so we weren't able to blow it up while Grammy was here to see it, but we did get it blown up. I started out with our little foot pump. Does anyone know how many calories you burn working a foot pump for about an hour? So I finally got the top of it blown up, but the bottom part was not compatible with my pump, so we were going to need a new pump. However, the kids had fun playing in it even if the bottom was not blown up.
Since you can get pumps at Walmart for cheap, we went ahead and got one tonight, and then, let the wild rumpus start! I don't know that I have ever seen Nate so excited about anything in his whole life.
The rules say that only one child is allowed in at a time, but well, that would mean taking turns, and what fun is that? So we plan on letting them both jump for the next 6 years until their combined weight is over the 70 lb limit. So thank you Grammy for the fun new toy, just in time to entertain at the party tomorrow!
