Big Boy Bed!!!

So, Daddy thought it was time to convert to a big boy bed. Spencer was so excited. We took the front of his crib off. There is a gate on his threshold so, he wouldn't be able to roam about at night. He was sooooo happy. He spent the majority of the morning playing in his room.

He now has his own personal "jump jump". Putting him down for the first nap was okay, but he woke up screaming after about 45 minutes. We think he fell out.

Bed time was good as well. He went right to sleep, no fussing or anything. At around 10pm, James checked on him and found him in the floor! He was out cold.
The next day for nap James put him down and this was a struggle. He did not want to do it at all. I had to run errands and was home in about 1.5 hours. James said that after about an hour fight, he had to put the front back onto the bed. It's a crib again. Spencer has not mentioned it since. I think we will keep it this way until he can get out on his own or he grows too tall for the bed.

Tate's 2nd Birthday

I told you it was birthday season. Spencer's crazy little buddy, Tate, turned two. It was a water themed party. Swimming, Slip n' Slide, Nemo.... this is Spencer slipping and sliding. Well, Daddy had to slide him down the plastic. James would hold him and Spencer would count " 1-2" and James would say three and slide him down. (He can now count to three!!! a week later.)

Mommy and Spencer enjoying some Nemo birthday cupcakes! They were covered in Swedish Fish. One of my favorite candies, and they were all over the place. Random bowls of Swedish Fish. I had a belly ache when we left.


"No pictures please, I'm eating!"

Sea World

Sea World is running a Florida residents discount for two parks for the price of one. So we took at little trip to Sea World and Aquatica (a water park) over Labor Day Weekend. We had so much fun! One the first day we went to Sea World and boy oh boy did Spence enjoy it! he loved the shows. Just like with the Thomas show he didn't make a noise during the show, just watched with a look of discovery on his face. This was the "Believe" show with the Orca Whales. At the end of the show Spence said "Bye whale." Then he was really excited to get a picture with Shamu afterwards.
This is the seal area. we also saw the Sea Lion Show. It was super funny. After seeing this show and display Spencer smacked his hands together and made a seal sound. He is too cute! and smart!

If this is any indication of the trip, you get that he had a great time. so did Mommy and Daddy too! Here we are waiting for the Dolphin Show to start.

Here is one of many shots that we got of the show. This was soooooooo good! After this show Spencer said "Happy Dolphin."

The little guy looking at fish. He wanted to "touch it!" Also notice how cute he is holding his new plush shark.
James says that I'm riding in this train. We were able to ride both the coasters. Super fun!

At the end of a very long day. We were back in our room at 8 pm. The little guy did so well. He is still talking about his trip and dolphins and sharks and whales and big dolphins......and fishes and Nemos......haha!

Big Boy Brushing Teeth

After bath time, Spencer brushes his teeth. He pulls the stool over to the sink and hops up to brush and spit. He does such a good job. This evening James put him in a "real" towel, you know one without a hood on it! He looks so much like James, towel up to the boobs!!! Haha! I love them so much!
