Tommy was watching Maddie and Nate spend a few minutes outside tonight. Once he realized he wasn't going out, too, he decided to entertain himself (and us) by making faces on the patio door.
Tommy skipped his afternoon nap because he was out spending some one-on-one time with his mommy. As soon as she got him in the house, he was was out. Didn't even have to take his coat off.
Tommy really liked playing with the different toys that Coco, our Parents as Teachers educator, brought with her tonight, especially the different color hankies that he pulled out of a tissue box.
It's been such a mild winter that we just had to get out to the zoo today. The kids were excited to go and we were excited to get them out of the house! Tommy has grown so much since our last trip that he actually noticed the different animals this time, including the monkeys.
Brent and Tori offered to watch the kids so that Angie and I could have a date night. So we loaded them up and drove them over to their house after dinner. Keiton was especially happy to see his cousins.
Brandi stopped by tonight to return a dish we took her dinner in a few weeks ago. She recently had a new baby boy and had to come to our place to see that having one isn't so hard!
Not sure if Tommy's as cute as Maddie was when she modeled the duckie towel so I turned it black and white. He's definitely the cutest black and white duckie!
Went in to get a photo of Tommy before midnight to make sure the kids were covered up before turning in and found Tommy completely uncovered. Good thing I still needed a photo I checked on him.
Grandma Shepherd came over tonight to put the kids to bed so that Mommy and I could have a date night (grocery shopping) and they immediately flocked to her. Of course, Tommy got her full attention while the other two climbed over each other to get to her.
It's simply amazing all the money we (and the grandparents) have spent on toys and the most favorite things to play with are boxes, wipes, junk mail and tv remotes.
