Friends

Theo's got some great friends to hang out with.

Sometimes they go out and do cool things like watch parades or play in the park or whatever they feel like.

Here's Theo w/ his buddy watching their dads go to school.

He and Gracie tend to get silly, 

but he's sure to be careful with his littler friends like his cousin Christina.

Circus

Theo went to the circus! Well, sort of. He got to see the elephants, ponies and tigers hanging out and warming up for their performances outside prior to the show. Also, he saw a bunch of performers up-close and personal doing all kinds of cool things. When the actual show started he asked to go home, and his parents were totally cool with that.

Happy Mother's Day

Teddy and his Mother celebrate finding out that the new baby will be another boy and have a blue party and decorate with ultrasound pictures. 

At the butterfly gardens. Turns out butterflies are pretty scary little creatures, but as always Theo is a fan of the flowers.

The Great Catch-Up of Winter. Part V: Disneyland

The little family went to Mickey's house and met the big cheese himself. 

It's really a testament to the young child's ability to forgive and to trust that he kept allowing his parents to take him on attractions that are way too scary. However, the parents nailed it with rides like Dumbo and Its a Small World. 

The bumper cars were probably the highlight of the day, even though he almost didn't get on--they had to measure him both before he got in line and before he got a car just to make sure he was tall enough to allow on, phew!

Easter Weekend

Here are a few snippets of Theo's Easter Weekend Extravaganza 

 He and his mother dyed some eggs. The actual dyeing of the egg was not as exciting as choosing the colors for each glass of vinegar water and adding the dye--green was the favorite color of the day. 

 The boy had a blast at the local Easter egg hunt. He somehow stayed ahead of the swarm of 0-2 year olds multiplied by their camera wielding family members. Thus, the boy acquired quite the loot.

 For the second year in a row, the child conceded to watching the duckling day parade but preferred not participate (except for a brief stint with only the duckling feet portion of his costume). 

 Makin' some crafts:

The Great Catch-Up of Winter. Part IV: Aunts and Uncles

The little boy got some good face time in with his aunts and uncles.

Uncle Mark said that Theo was the best little-kid client he'd ever had.  

Aunt Sara took the boy to one of her favorite bird-watching spots

Aunt Kaitlin accompanied her little nephew on lots of outings around town

Uncle Philip played with the boy quite often, even setting up a model train for him to play with

The Great Catch-Up of Winter. Part III: Christmas

Nana Lou and Papa John took the child on a train ride to meet Santa. If given the choice, T-Wolf prefers his jolly, white-haired men to wear overalls and handkerchiefs rather than velvet and funny hats. 

Christmas was pretty awesome; his generous family substantially increased his collection of vehicle-related paraphernalia.
