Riding The Gator

Today was a beautiful day to be outside. Timmy had lots of fun riding his John Deere Powerwheels Gator and wanted to share it with his Nan and Pop. So Nan and Pop this is for you. Enjoy!

Handy Manny Fix-It-Right Race Car

Got this for Timmy tonight when we went shopping. He loves putting these things together with his Daddy. He now has the boat and the race car. Maybe he'll get the plane next??? We'll see?!

"My race car! Woohoo!"

Happy Valentines Day Everyone!

Five years ago was mine and Scot's first Valentines Day together. Back then I was a huge coffee drinker and loved Starbucks. So for Valentines Day Scot got me this:


He got me two dozen pink roses and put them in a pink Starbucks thermos. I don't drink coffee now but I still use the thermos for hot chocolate/apple cider. We were two months into our relationship then. And by November we were married. Now we have a 2 1/2 year old son who is a bundle of energy but a very sweet boy whom we love very much. God's timing is perfect! It seemed like forever that I had waited for the right guy to come into my life. It's been 5 years that we've been together and four years of marriage and it all seems like a whirlwind it's went by so fast. It's been fantastic though! I couldn't have asked for a better father and husband. Scot is such an Awesome man of God and I'm thankful for every day that we have together! Married or not show those special people in your life how much you love them. Make a special memory with them today that you can hold close to your heart always!

Toddler Bed

This past weekend Tristan stayed with us. Here's a picture of Timmy helping Daddy put together our spare toddler bed for Tristan to sleep in. I was pleasantly surprised that they did so well sleeping in the same room together. They didn't gives us any real issues. We could hear them on the monitor for a bit chattering but they went to sleep rather quickly. Timmy is such a good helper though. He loves to help his Daddy on projects around the house. Daddy is such a good sport to let him help because I'm sure he could get things done a lot faster without Timmy's help but he enjoys teaching him those things. PTL for an AWESOME father and husband!!!

"I love helping my Daddy!"

Leepfrog Leepster

A good friend of ours was selling their leepfrog leepster with a few games for a good price so we got it for Timmy. He is really a little young for it yet but he is learning how to use it. We only let him play with it when we can supervise him. We want to make sure he doesn't do anything that will break it...lol. Here's some pics of him playing with it.

Circus (Wednesday the 9th)

A fun time was had at the circus. Timmy was a little leery of it and cried more than usual but he still had fun watching everything. I was surprised he didn't like it more than he did but there were motorcycles this year and they were loud and he doesn't like a lot of loud noises. He sooo loved spending time with his cousins though. Iris had a blast and was clapping her hands and everything. Wish I had been able to get a picture of that but by the time we got the camera out she stopped. Go figure! Tristan has become a ham for the camera so I got a couple of good pics of him. We took tons of pictures but these were the best looking from all that we took. Enjoy!

This one is a little blurred but you can tell what is going on.

Mesmerized while watching the elephants. Timmy loves the elephants.

Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom was fun enough. Timmy would've been OK with just doing Chef Mickey's and going back to Nan and Popsie's though. If he hadn't been scared by the Honey Pot ride then a great time would have been had all day. Instead we had to try and convince a 2 year old that the other rides weren't gonna scare him like the Honey Pot did. Lesson learned! Don't take a two year old on a ride until you find out exactly what it does and if there is anything that might scare him in it....lol.

Timmy loved riding the monorail.

"Wow Popsie look at all that neat stuff."

This was one of the play toys on the way into the Honey Pot ride. He loved the toys but the ride itself scared Timmy. Of course it made for a rough afternoon because he was gun shy after that ride. He got better by the late afternoon though.

Timmy was really excited to meet this character. It's his favorite movie right now.

"Buzz Lightyear is the bomb!" (Timmy was still waking up from a nap in this pic but he loves Buzz)

Front of Mickey's train.

If you look close you will see Goofy, Minnie, and Mickey in this pic.

Mickey Mouse is AWESOME!

Peter Pan is one of Timmy's favorite movies.

Pinocchio has become one of Timmy's favorite movies.

The Castle changes colors. It's really cool.

Chef Mickey's Breakfast at The Contemporary Resort

Breakfast with Mickey was the biggest hit ever!!!! He had more fun doing that then anything else. We could have just done breakfast with Mickey and gone home and Timmy would have been cool with that.

"Oh boy Mickey and his pals are coming out. How AWESOME!" (This is what the "Wow Factor" looks like.)

"Awww, Mickey gave me a hug! I luv hugs!"

"Mickey's my pal!"

"Donald is so cool!"

"Minnie is so sweet!"

"Goofy is tickling me."

"Goofy is so much fun!"

"Awww, Pluto put his hand on my shoulder."

Downtown Disney

We went on down and stayed overnight in Kissimmee to be at Chef Mickey's the next morning to start off our day at Disney World. Timmy had a blast when we went to Downtown Disney. I think he thinks that was Disney World but that was just a taste of what was to come.

These birds are not tied down and just stay there for the folks to see. We asked the guy in charge of them if their wings were clipped and he said no. They are just that tamed that they don't even attempt to take off. The guy who takes care of them said they know they got it good. He said they are so spoiled.

Timmy doesn't look he was having fun or anything....lol.

Daytona

Spent the day in Daytona today. Spent time at the beach and went to the Race track. We were bummed though to find out that they have closed the Museum at Daytona for good. But a good time was still had by everyone.

Don't let this pic fool you. Daddy did all the other castles.

He's telling Nan about all the sand toys.

Timmy and Popsie are working together.

A great day to be at the beach. The weather was perfect. Not too hot but not too cold.

Timmy and His Popsie. He doesn't luv him or anything.....lol.

Here we are at the speedway out in the stands at turn 4. Two motorcycles were racing around the track and man were they loud. The expression and Timmy's face pretty much tells you just how loud.

"I like the race track a lot!"

"Thumbs up for Richard Petty. I'm told he's a great Nascar racer."

This pretty much tells you how much fun he had today. He crashed in no time once we started driving back home....lol.
