Thomas got a deck parachuter in his Easter basket. I got it out of the package set it on the ground and within 30 seconds and before it got one jump, its fate was sealed. “Dad you fix it?” Thomas says.

Thomas and I died eggs the Saturday before Easter. While dieing the eggs Thomas dropped one and the shell broke. Minutes later we where putting stickers on the eggs and I noticed one of the stickers said “Happy Easter Brother” I instructed Thomas that this sticker was for Charlie cause it said brother on it.

For Thomas’ birthday we went bowling in Wakuee next to the Fareway grocery store. It is smoke free and all kid freindly. The kids loved bowling and the party room was great, and we didn’t have to clean up which was even better. We partyed like rock stars and Thomas still talks about it. I [...]

When Thomas was a baby we told him once that the oven was hot. He has never touched it. We told Thomas once that the fireplace was dangerous. He has yet to come near it. When Maggie and I are going to bed we start laughing out loud cause Charlie is such a little shit. [...]

Last weekend I needed to pattern my gun for the turkey season. While at my parents house Thomas runs upstairs to play. Within 10 minutes he comes to the steps and says. “Guys, I need to wash my hands.” I just laughed it off (clueless to parenting), but Maggie got it right away. She asked [...]

That is the refrain from the Arthur TV show. Thomas likes the Cartoon a lot and last weekend Maggie got to take the Thomas to see Arthur live with his cousins, which by the way Thomas mimics like a shadow. They let the audiance take photos and video of the show too. I thought that [...]

If you haven’t seen the story don’t worry the news stations didn’t cover anything but irrate landowners. Check out these images below. I haven’t formed and opinion yet. I don’t [...]

Last summer I blogged about going to Maggie’s brothers house to let the boys swim. That day (couple of pictures below) must have been the most important day in Thomas’ memory. It’s been a long winter and you could feel that boys just need out. We put a lot of the anticipation on the boys [...]

The family is going to go swimming this afternoon to get out of the house. Everyone is excited and we have been bribing Thomas’ behavior all week with the expectations of going swimming. I am trying to get him to take a nap prior to going this afternoon. Thomas is used to napping after lunch. [...]
