The Crab Trap

Crab Legs!

Early beach pix!

These are some of the early ones ... We'll keep trying to get some shots at the water ... He's loving it so much it is hard to keep up with him and get a good pic. Stay tuned.

Like a Fish!

Thomas loves the ocean! He runs straight into it with no fear....causing intense fear from the 2 adults chasing him :)

We are having a great time at Amelia Island - beach in the morning, home for lunch and nap then adventures in the afternoon. Today we are planning a drive up the island to some little shops and maybe an ice cream cone.

"I want to go in the water and jump waves!"

Last Saturday was Zander's 3rd birthday party ... and they had cupcakes!!! For those who don't know, Thomas loves cupcakes, and hates having stuff on his face! Apparently, he's beginning to prioritize.

We've been trying to teach Thomas that when it's morning and you need to go to the potty, it's fine to come get Mommy and Daddy. But.....he's so rule bound and knows you don't get out of bed....well, let's just say it's a learning process! We've tried to explain that when it's daylight that means it is day time and it is okay to get out of the bed.

Today, we made a lot of noise in the kitchen so he would know we were up. He comes running into the kitchen and threw himself in my arms saying, "Yyyyyaaaaaaayyyyyyy, it's daytime!!!" Then he said, "but that's not so easy to see in my bedroom." Oops.

HAHAHAHAHA

Happy Father's Day

Muffins made for Daddy. Phone Call to Pop. Haircut for Thomas and Daddy. Lunch at Five Guys. Muffin for snack. Skype to Granddaddy.Afternoon in the kiddie pool in the backyard.


Happy Father's Day Indeed!

More Curb Appeal

I think the project manager of Curb Appeal might try to take Thomas home with her. We ate lunch with the crew today (they like our table and umbrella). He charmed them all again, but he sat next to Kimberly and kept her laughing. We've been with them all week on and off and they all know his name, his school, his birthday, the fact that the US soccer team was robbed of the winning goal today and that we don't talk with food in our mouths.

Too fun!

Curb Appeal

Thomas loved having Curb Appeal at our house today. He chatted with everyone this morning and kept asking each person, "What are you doing?" He proudly announced in the car on the way to school that after camp we would live in a brand new house. Well......not exactly new, but definitely improved! Great mini makeover from Curb Appeal.

Georgia Aquarium

He loved it!

The things he says

I'm working on the computer while Thomas is eating breakfast this morning.

Thomas: "Can you take my picture and let me see it?"
Me: "No Baby, my computer doesn't have a camera."
Thomas: "Daddy's computer has a camera."
Me: "That's true."
Thomas: "After my nap when Daddy comes home, maybe we can compare."
Me: "Do you know what you mean by compare?"
Thomas: "Yes, we put them side to side and look. Compare."


Clearly a genius :)

Summer Camp

Thomas started summer camp yesterday. The theme is summer around the world and these 2 weeks are about Italy. He made pizza yesterday and today played bocce in the park. What a life!

Still doing great with the potty training. The only thing is that when you need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and you are 2, that means you need help from a parent. Great - another reason for him to not sleep - HAHAHAHAHAHA
