Day Out with Thomas

In mid-May we went up to Calgary with the family, Larry's parents, and Kasen to go see Thomas the Tank Engine. We went last year and it was probably the highlight of Tanner's life. This year was super sunny and there was tonnes to do, and Hattie loved it too.

The day included a 20 minute ride on Thomas in "Annie and Clareabelle". What a highlight! Tanner had an open window by him and he couldn't keep from sticking his head out to see no matter how many times he was told not to.

They were so excited to do everything the park had to offer. There was Thomas to see and ride, a coloring table, face painting, ball toss, farris wheel, merry-go-round, miniture train setup, picnic in the park, and running around to see everything. It was a fun full day!

We thought the kids would be a little scared of the farris wheel, but they LOVED it!

2 months old

I can't believe my baby is already 2 months old! It's crazy how fast it goes. He has been way easier than my other two were as babies so far. He is super smily and loves watching the older two. He loves being carried around, but he still really likes his alone time. He is an awesome sleeper and usually gives me an 8 hour span at night. He does, however, puke as much as my other two. I am constantly changing his clothes and mine and we always smell like sour milk. Oh well.

We sure love him!

Happy Birthday Nana

For Nana's birthday this year, the big 50, we made her a 'Disney UP' cake since it is her favorite movie. Tanner and Hattie were so excited to help make the cake. However, they couldn't be told it wasn't a replica of Nana's actual house. They got to eat the extra icing and select the smarties for the balloons!

The problem with "Squishies"

The problem with "squishies" is they don't go away the moment you want them to. Tanner and Hattie like to take lengthy baths together with bubbles and toys. I get them out when they end up having a fight they can't resolve or when we have somewhere to go. Otherwise, they stay in there for a long, long time. As everyone knows, when you are in the tub or pool for a long time your hands and feet get wrinkled. Today I pointed out to Tanner that his hands were really wrinkly. As you can see by the picture, that did not go down well. He started bawling out of control and told me to "get rid of the squishies! I Hate squishies! Get them off my hands" I tried explaining that they have to go away on their own after a couple minutes and that he should just forget about them and get dressed. Nope! He stayed in my room bawling about his squishies for quite a while. Guess I'll never point that out again!
