Trains at Northpark

We took Grant this past weekend to see the train exhibit at Northpark mall and loved it!  It is amazing to see all the miniature scenes and how the trains go through them.

Grant and daddy love to drop coins into the bucket!  This sweet lady even treated Grant to a candy cane.

We also took Grant to see a puppet show with a Grinch-like character.  Grant was excited for the show to start as seen below in the two top pics.

But then the puppet came out and you can see Grant wanted nothing to do with the show anymore.

Grant’s favorite part of the day?  Riding up and down the escalator!

Christmas program

Grant had his first Christmas program today!  He did really well, no crying, he loved it!

His class waved their stars to “Twinkle Twinkle, Special Star.”  My son was the best waver up there!!!  He even started dancing in his seat a little bit to the song!

You can tell these two above pics that he takes his star waving very seriously! :)

Way to go Grant!  You did such a great job today!  I hope this Christmas season will be the start of beginning to realize the reason for the season!

Need a hug?

Meet Graham, a neighbor friend that has become a favorite playmate of Grants.  I caught Grant showing Graham some love the other day by continually hugging him.  It was super cute!

I think Graham has had enough hugging in this pic….

Good thing Grant was distracted by the truck on his t-shirt!  Ha!
