Oh, how I love this boy...

Eric in his "policeman gear!"
Oh how I love this boy!!
He has us on our toes all the time and is just the funniest little thing!
**************
After accelerating to pass a car, Eric asked me,
"Mom, is there a car on your tail?"
**************
While at Wal-Mart Eric and Daddy were checking out across from the bathroom. So, naturally, Eric sees the bathroom and decides he needs to go. Daddy (watching, of course) sends him on his way only to have Eric - loudly - let him know that the bathroom is closed for cleaning. Before daddy could tell him to come back, Eric said, "I'll just go in the other one..." While walking into the ladies room, he shouts, "GIRLS!!! I'M COMING IN!!!"
***************
(Another bathroom story)!
While in his IronMan suit at the Y, Eric went into the boys bathroom while I stood outside the door with Cooper and two co-workers. A few minutes later, I hear, "Mom, I need help!" Only to see my naked son in the hallway with his IronMan suit and underwear down around his ankles!
***************
Everyday there is a story like this. I love this little man with all my heart and he is growing up way too fast!

Planes, Trains and the Kiddos...

What a fun few weekends we have had. We took the kids to see Thomas the Train up at the train museum. It was more like a tiny little fair. The kids LOVED it. It was the perfect afternoon outing!!
Rachel & Eric on the steps of a real train!!
Our little engineer!
Oh my goodness...this boy was so excited to see Thomas...
These were Thomas' "old shoes." Or so we told him! :)
Here they are waiting for Thomas to blow his steam!
This weekend we took the kids to the annual OU airshow. It's very interactive and the kids love climbing in and out of the planes!!
Looks like a natural.
No, they are not peeking out of Nemo's belly!! This was a really cool plane they had on display this year called the DC-3. Which is the same plane their Papa flew in during Vietnam!
At the controls!! Look back to October last year and you'll see a similar photo!!
