Pillow Pet Delight

For the past 7 days we have been waiting for the delivery of 2 pillow pets for the boys and unknown to us, today was delivery day. Pillow pets are pillows that fold up to become different animals. Brandon chose the lady bug while Bailey chose the bumble bee. All morning Brandon was asking over and over and over again when we would get them. I kept telling them both that they would be here any day it just depended on the delivery driver. So when Bailey and I came home this afternoon and found the post slip in the mail to say there was a parcel at the post office waiting for us to pick up I was most excited.

Brandon was happy to go to kindergarten this morning. His little friends Dominic and Max were so very excited to see him. This morning at kindergarten Brandon wrote his own name instead of following the dots in the shape of his name. Bailey and I said goodbye to our lovely Brandon and then headed over to a friend's house to say hello and let Bailey and Leanne's little boy Sammy have a play together. We both had a great time. Bailey loved all the trains Sammy had including the huge train table. The 2 of us headed home to have some lunch and hang out washing. It was a very hot day today which was great being that it's still winter.

Once Bailey and I picked up Brandon the 3 of us called into the fruit market as I'd heard a rumour that they were selling bananas for $5.00 a kilogram, $10.00 cheaper than anywhere else. Well they weren't quite that cheap anymore but close to it so we grabbed a few as well as some watermelon, mangoes and a few other things before then jumping into the car and moving on. Our next stop was the post office to collect our parcel. Unfortunately, we were there at 3:30pm but the delivery driver wouldn't be delivering our parcel to the post office until 4:30pm. So home we went because I wasn't hanging out in the shops with tired kids for another hour.

The boys watched Ben 10 on TV once home and then we headed back to the post office. The absolute excitement on the boy's faces was unbelievably. I have never seen such extreme anticipation. The boys were jumping up and down. They were so gorgeous. We ran back to the car where we finally opened the big box and out came the pillow pets. The kids were beside themselves. Needless to say that our evening was spent with the 2 boys appreciating their pillows. Brandon went to bed sleeping on his while Bailey chucked his to the side and went back to his original pillow. Great reflection upon their personalities. I hope boys that you both have a great sleep. See you both in the morning boys.
