We carpooled with our friends Mrs. Deb and Emma Rae to the Wiggly Play Center in Frisco where we met up with Lukas, Reese and their mommies. The Wiggly Play Center has a huge multi-level indoor adventure playground with several slides, tunnels, and even a rope swing. There was also a bounce house as well as lots of little cars to drive around in. After a long time of playing, Nicholas finally slowed down long enough to eat some lunch. He ordered a fruit salad and chicken nuggets. I was glad to see that all of their food is either baked or grilled - nothing is fried! As we waited for our order, I explained to Nicholas why we had a sign with a number on it. He enjoyed hearing me explain that when our food was ready, the man would put it on a tray and walk out into the dining area, look around the room and say, in Mommy's silly voice, "Now where is number 5? I have all of this food for number 5. If I can't see number 5 then I might have to eat all of this food myself!" Of course, he enjoyed the story so Mommy had to repeat is several times. Thankfully the food actually arrived soon and Nicholas ate quickly so he could get back to playing.
I was very proud of Nicholas. His friend Emma Rae was crying in the multi-level playground. I tried to call to her to come out but she just kept crying. I went in to pick her up and bring her to her mom. As I was coming out with her I saw Nicholas and Emma Rae's mom walking towards us. Mrs. Deb said that Nicholas came to get her and said, "Emma Rae needs you. C'mon!" and he led her over to where we were. He did that completely on his own. I'm so proud of him for getting help for his friend and for being bright enough to bring her mom over to her.
Here's a picture of Nicholas with his friends Reese and Emma Rae. It's wonderful that they play so well together and have such a good time. Of course, everyone has fun playing dress up!
We left the Wiggly Play Center and went to U.S. Toy and Constructive Playthings so that Mrs. Deb could do some shopping for Emma Rae's birthday party. This store was incredible. They had puppets, costumes, cheap toys but also lots of educational toys that make learning fun. Mommy wanted to buy everything in the store but fortunately Nicholas and Emma Rae kept me so busy as they ran up and down each aisle testing everything that I didn't have time to buy anything myself.
We love our friends!
