Father's & Son's Campout

Ben was so excited to take Tyson on their first Father's and Son's camp out! He had been talking about it for weeks and getting Tyson excited as well. They had a great time. I have to say that it was a little sad to watch my hubby and my little boy drive away without me for the night! It was the first time I had spent the night at home by myself, I wasn't quite sure what to do with my free time in the quiet, but I managed. I love to see Ben's excitement when it comes to spending time like that with Tyson!

Can you tell they're excited!


Look at that dirty face!

Boy, I know I'm a mom when I look at this picture and think, "I hope he had his teeth brushed before he went to bed!" Fuzzy marshmello teeth, YUCK!

Just before they left. Tyson loves sticks and water.

Fun With Mom

There aren't too many pictures of me and my little boy since I am usually the one holding the camera, but Ben got a few for me over the past few months. We only have a few weeks left before my one on one time with Tyson will be limited with the new baby and I want him to have some pictures of he and his mommy having fun together.


Pregnancy kills my ribs and my exercise ball is about the only thing that brings relief. Tyson figured he would join in on the fun!


Tyson asked me to build him a robot with the mega blocks and this is what we came up with. I was pretty proud of my creation especially since Ben was sitting there watching to see what I would build. I think I surprised him a little.

Glider fun!

Ben went and bought a styrofoam glider for he and Tyson to play with. Tyson loved to throw it and then have Daddy put it back together again. It obviously wasn't the most sturdy, being made of styrofoam and by the end of the outing it was pretty much destroyed, but Tyson had fun anyway.




"Hurry up, Dad!"

Dinosaur Museum

We finally took Tyson to the dinosaur museum last month. He loved every minute of it and didn't want to leave. Just about every Saturday he asks if we can go see the dinosaur bones. All the hands on activities were a big hit, especially playing in the water, of course!
