weekend pics

this weekend involved a sad boy and not very good parenting choices!  i will explain.

kai was very excited to have his cousin ruben come for a sleepover - he planned his evening of which i was not included, it was suggested i go out with a friend because it was going to be a boys only night (lego, video games, pizza)!  i didn't take offence as he was eager to spend time with his cousin.  however, ruben at the last minute wasn't able to make it over and kai was gutted.  he was teary and sad.  to make him feel better i hastily suggested retail therapy and eating away the disappointment - this is the bad parenting part (please don't judge, my boy was sad!).  i don't know what i was thinking, i am well aware that these tactics do not work yet they sure seemed to lift kai's spirits!  maybe they just work for 8 year old boys?
first stop, a croissant from thomas haas
second stop, a toy store
third stop, a cupcake from the cupcakes store
i indulged in a little retail therapy too, my boys were accommodating!

for dinner, we ate homemade pizza and played with the board game, labyrinth, that kai purchased during his retail therapy session. 
  

the next day was more of the same with the addition of play wrestling!
