Getting too big

Someone got his new big boy bed this weekend.  It’s in between being a loft and a junior loft.  It was made by my uncle for my cousin over 20 years ago.  My other uncle cut it down so it’s just tall enough for Boog to fit underneath without bonking his head on it.

Boog is super excited to have a big boy bed and have room to stretch since he was as long as his toddler bed at this point.  He likes that he has room to play up there if he wants and finds it hilarious that he can touch the ceiling.  He keeps forgetting that his has to crawl and can’t stand when he’s up there.  It’s only been two days, so I imagine he’ll remember soon enough.

He runs around and stands under it, just because he can lol.  I told him we’d turn it into a little hiding space for him, like his own little clubhouse.  I’m going to try to find either a dinosaur or Transformer curtain to hang across the front opening for him and maybe a small lamp to put on the dresser that’s going to be under there.

Fun at the Fair

Fun on the merry go round

Fair food!  Corn dog and fries for lunch

Look at that grin!

He got a Transformer name plaque - even the letters have Transformers in them

He tried super hard to stay awake - but we'd been up since 5:30 that morning

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!  This year I did things a little different.  There was no basket full of chocolate and candy to be had in our house...And instead of an egg hunt, there was a treasure hunt!

Boog had his Easter basket and with it was three envelopes, each with a picture clue for his treasures.  I saved the last one for the toy I knew he really wanted.

The envelopes were numbered and he had to open them in the right order as well as tell me what letter each picture started with.

His basket had one hollow chocolate bunny, some regular goldfish cracker snack packs, some graham cracker goldfish snack packs and some packs of fruit snacks.  His treasures were a Transformers RescueBots Memory game, a Heat Wave expansion for his Beam Box game system and last but not least:

Transformers RescueBots Blades transforming figure.  This is the toy he's been asking me for for over a month.  So he was super excited when he found it and kept jumping up and down.  He said they're going to snuggle together at bedtime tonight lol.
