Bunk Bed!

Jack is 15 days away from turning 4!  For his birthday this year he will be moving his bedroom upstairs and told us he wanted a big boy bunk bed.

As soon as we brought home the boxes last night, he started begging for us to build "the whole thing" so he could spend his first night on the top bunk.

I won't admit what time we finished - i.e. what time Jack stayed up until.  He was so excited to climb the ladder.

We told him that once he was tucked in we didn't want him climbing down the ladder in the dark.  Did we have success???  He only climbed down 14 times before morning - you tell me...



Instructing Daddy on where to drill next.



Goodnight sweet boy!

Toddler Bed

 
Oh yes, we have reached that lovely milestone where the baby figures out how to climb out of his crib....... oh crap!
 
 "That's a long way down - can't believe I climbed out of here!"
 
 
 "Ha - check it out - new bed!!!"
 
 

 
And a swing set.



 Jack is enjoying getting into bed with his brother.
 
 



Swinging!
 
Big boy Nate.
 
 
 
And here's something weird Jack's been up to.....
Pretending he is a super hero with boots.........Mommy's boots.....
 

We have no explanation or excuse for this picture other than blackmail someday!


Tractor Show

Nate got to go to his very first farm show this year.  With his current obsession over tractors, this was quite a big hit!

 Nate actually hugged the tires of this tractor.
 




 

 

 
 
Jack's favorite tractor - the combine!
 
 

Granddaddy kept telling us we had to go check out the backhoe loader - after we got the demonstration of all the crazy things it could do we understood why.

 So now we have the excavator shirt along with the tractor hat....
 



Oh yeah - and the John Deere baby blanket too!
