Big Boy Bed

Tonight you slept in your new big boy bed for the first time. It's the bottom of the bunk beds that you are sharing with your brother Jacob. You did great too! We did the same things we normally do before bedtime. Took a bath, got your jammies on, got some milk, gave kisses and hugs to daddy and Jacob and then off to your room. We read two books like always (and like always you asked to read more!). Then I layed with you for a few songs on the cd that I play for you each night. I kissed you good night and you said good night and I shut the door. I couldn't believe it was that easy, but it was. You fell right asleep and looked so cozy in that big bed. You did wake up once and called for me and daddy and daddy went to lay with you. But I think that you did great for your first night. I don't know that you are ready to give your crib up to the new baby that is coming, but I think that once it gets here you will be okay and well adjusted to sleeping in your new room and new bed.

A Day with Thomas

Okay, well it really wasn't a whole day, but it was a couple hours and you LOVED it! We went to Huckleberry Railroad to visit Thomas the Tank Engine. Thomas the Train is your favorite cartoon right now and you already have lots of Thomas the Train toys. You are being to learn all the names of the different engines too. So I got tickets and you, Daddy and me and went for a train ride on the real Thomas the Train! We talked about it for a couple days beforehand and you were very excited. And when you actually saw Thomas your face just light up. You couldn't believe how big he was! You kept saying, "big Thomas." You loved the train ride and went between Daddy and I to see different things. You always got some tattoos of Thomas and his friends and played with some of the Thomas toys they had set up there. You really had a great time there and if I would have known how much stuff they had to do there we would have been there longer, but there is always next year. Here are some pictures!

Splish, Splash, this is how I take my bath...

For the most part you LOVE bath time! You think you have your own little pool and really instead of taking a bath you splash and splash and jump and throw water! There are some days that more water ends up outside of the bath tub than in it! Your favorite thing to do is use your cups to dump the water out of the bath tub, and I put more and more towels down to soak up the water. Tonight I thought I would take some pictures of you in the bath. I put lots of bubbles in there and you were "cleaning" the walls of the tub!
