I'm Hiding!!!

The other day we went down to my parents house for the evening.  Talan kept feeding Rocky food and we asked him to stop.  Well, he crawled under the kitchen table and started feeding him cereal he got out of the pantry without us knowing.  He thought he was being so secretive.

A few more pictures...

I just had to add these pictures to the blog.  I think we can honestly say that we were excited to see the show.  

Weekend in St. Louis

This past weekend Justin, myself, my parents, my brother, and his fiance went to St. Louis for the weekend.  Brittany, my mom, and I all got tickets to "Legally Blonde the Musical" so we made a weekend of it.  It was amazing!  We got there on Saturday morning and went to the Budweiser Factory, then the ladies went to the show that evening while the guys went and played mini-golf.  
Brittany and I at the show.  Laura Bell Bundy, the original Elle from Broadway, was Elle this show because the girl that usually plays Elle broke her toe.  She did an amazing job!  Brittany and I were ready to go back for another show.  Thanks Chris and Brittany for the wonderful Christmas gift!!!
Brittany, my mom, and I posing before we left for the show.  Notice we are all in our "Elle Pink."
Justin and I being silly before dinner.  I can honestly say I was a little bit excited for the show.
Here is one of the Clydesdales that was in the arena when we were on our tour.  His name was Jake.  Those horses are huge!!!
Justin and I on our way to St. Louis.  I think I drove him crazy for part of the ride.  I got to listen to one song from "Legally Blonde" every 30 minutes.  I always sung my heart out when I got to listen to my songs.  Hehe!  I think deep down he enjoyed the songs.  

A few more pictures from a great night!

Here are just a few more pictures that I couldn't fit on the last post.
Talan enjoying his new goodies that evening before bed.
Talan got a little souvenir from every person that went.  He got the dinosaur from us, a hat from Grandma and Grandpa, and Grandma Great got him a new dinosaur book.  That book has become a regular during our bedtime books.
We went into a store while we were waiting on Grandpa to bring the van to us and Talan decided to ride a bouncing bull. 

T-Rex Cafe

Sorry it has been a while since I have updated the blog.  We have been really busy lately and I finally have a night that I am able to sit down and update.  We have been doing a lot lately.  Talan is now 22 months and a true little boy.  Justin and I enjoy every moment we spend with him.  He is just a such to have around and can always put a smile on anybody's face.
We couple of weekends ago we went to T-Rex Cafe with my parents and Grandma Great.  Talan is really into dinosaurs right now so he loved it.  They have a "Build A Dino," a fossil dig, store, different themed rooms, and many other great things.   We had a great time!
(We plan on taking Nana and Papa there next time they come down to visit!!!)
Talan and I filling out the birth certificate for his "Sysaur."
Here Talan and Daddy are cleaning and brushing Sysaur so he looks perfect.  Talan really enjoyed this part.  He was able to step on a little lever and air would come out and blow on the dinosaur.
Talan filling Sysaur up.

Chuck E. Cheese

One of our close family friends lost their house on Christmas day due to a fire.  The youngest child of the family is one of Talan's really good friends.  He gets so excited when he sees her or if we even talk about her.
Well, Justin and I thought we would take Talan and the three kids to Chuck E. Cheese.  We weren't really sure what we were getting ourselves into but all four kids were so well behaved and had such great manners.  My parents did go with us too!  Thanks Mom and Dad with your help!
After pizza, we let the kids get ice cream.  Aubrie decided that Talan's popsicle looked more tasty than her ice cream snadwich.  Talan was more than willing to share with her. 
Talan's new favorite ride.  He kept going back to the clock and when it was time to get off to let another kid on he would say, "no, it my turn!"  
Eating some pizza!
Aubrie and Talan playing the "Whack O' Mole" game.
Before we left for Chuck E. Cheese we let the kids play at our house for a while.  Talan really enjoyed showing off the house and especially his room and toys from Christmas.

Dinosaur Towel

Talan has become obsessed with dinosaurs lately.  He got a dinosaur towel and a tub of dinosaurs for Christmas.  He can't get enough of either of these.  He was also given a sheet of dinosaur stickers the other day and has to have a sticker everyday.  
Justin and I thought this was just the cutest picture that we had to post it.
