Lunar Eclipse


The September 28, 2015 Total Lunar Eclipse is the fourth and final eclipse in a series of four total lunar eclipses called the lunar tetrad. The first three eclipses of the tetrad took place on April 15, 2014, October 8, 2014 and on April 4, 2015.

We were very excited to get to sit and watch this with our hot coco and deck chairs. It was a nice 73 degrees and clear sky!

A Day Out with Thomas


We were able to go and see Thomas!! 
Taking the train was definitely something new! As you can tell by this photo he had a blast! 



Sitting in the train I highly recommend this Outing for anyone who like Thomas. I would not recommend upgrading tickets though at least not here in OKC.

Halloween Costume CHECK!



Thank you Party City for this really well made 3/4T Jack Skellington Costume! Jimmy was very excited to get it from his Nahna! It looks so good and fits perfectly. One more thing I can check off my list.

My son goes through phases much like most children do.. I just feel as though that he goes through them in warp speed, and then burns out. We then move on to something new, and then revisit it maybe 1 or 2 months later. Nightmare before Christmas is one that is a constant. He loves his Jack, and I can't wait to update with Halloween photos.

Going to the Zoo


Going to the Zoo was a really awesome day! We met up with a friend of mine and her long time guy! Jimmy was Super excited to see all the animals and ride the Choo Choo Express.

Although Jimmy is a very well behaved 3 yr old.. He still pushes the boundaries of what is acceptable and unacceptable behavior.

Watching my son go from
Infant to Baby to Toddler to Little Boy, I find myself missing my infant. Missing my Toddler. Does that ever end??

I feel as though this is going by way too quick. I remember longing for the day I could hear his voice. I wanted to know what he was thinking, and what were his preferences would be. I love talking to my son. I ask him all sorts of Questions about the things that he is most familiar. I remember someone once telling me that "Once he starts to talk, all you will want is for him to shut up". Of coarse, this was said in passing, but I think for her that is true.

If we do not talk to our children, read to them, and keep that dialog... What happens when they are older and teenagers. If that line of communication is not already created by the preteen and teen years. I don't see how you can create it.

Keeping in good fashion.... **Update** about potty training. We were in our Big boy underwear all day today with out 1 accident!! Go Jimmy Thomas is Next Weekend you can do it!

Airplane Bed!


Airplane bed... For my sons Birthday last year my Mother & Father in-law bought my son this bed:

KidKraft Blue Airplane Toddler Bed
Overstock.com

And well it is really really cool! But my son has completely tore this thing up. It is missing the left wing now and i am wondering should we buy him another bed, or just leave this one for him to grow out of... We were looking at Train beds.

For some reason Jimmy has taken to jumping on everything. His bed, my bed, the couch, the floor. My son the "Jumper" this was a cute concept, but probably not practical for a 3 year old.
