Easter Pics are Coming

We finally got around to getting a tiller to re-do our backyard and time has really gotten away from me. I was overly tired for a few days from all the work outside,so much so that I have not done anything lately-I didn't even go to work for a couple days.
I do have some Easter pics that I will be getting up before the weekend is over-I promise!

Happy, Sad, then Happy Again

I know it's been forever again but here are some pics from the past couple weeks.
Trevor was really happy because he got some tattoo's. He thought he was so cool and kept showing all of us his "awesome tattoo's".
The next day we had to take Papa to the airport. Trevor did not want Papa to leave. He kept saying "No no no leave Papa...please please please!" It is a super small airport so we got to watch Papa go through security and could see him after.
Trevor: Looking up at me so sweetly, tugging my hand "Come on mommy, go see Papa."
Me: "We can't go in there honey because it is only for people getting on the plane."
*I am sure you can guess what came next....
Trevor: "Me go on plane too Mommy!"
Me: "We can't buddy. Papa has to go home to see Grandma Nay-Nay and go back to work."
Trevor: "Ohhh noooo (with such a sad look in his eyes)...Papa no go home. Me say bye bye to him..." Yelling, "BYE BYE PAPA! I LOVE YOU...SEE YA SOON!" and he blows a kiss. And part of me just wanted to cry because he is such a little man with feelings. Here is a pic before Papa went through security. To this day he still calls the guest room "Papa's Room!"
The next day we made oatmeal cookies to make Trevor feel better about Papa leaving. He had a really good time-mostly because he kept eating the chocolate chips! :)

This kid loves to talk on the phone. Anyone, anytime...he doesn't care. He is always saying, "Me talk, me say Hi!" He was talking to Grandma Jan in this pic.

I decided to buy Trevor a game that we can play together and Hungry Hungry Hippos seemed like the best choice. He LOVED it and for a while he actually played halfway right. But I think his favorite part after a while was counting the marbles.
I always say it, but I will try to update once a week. Sometimes I just don't have much to report.
But Trevor is getting smarter everyday. He is always saying new things, a lot of funny things, and he always surprises us. He has a little attitude on him and is pretty mean sometimes. Hopefully it is a 2 year old thing and will start to pass as time goes on....God willing!

Here are some pics that I promised....I am late, but we have been busy and I have been going to bed early.
Trevor didn't waste any time-he got Papa reading right away!
"Here Papa, you can hold all of my friends!" I'm not sure why, but he always makes people who come over and stay hold all his animals for bedtime.

This all started as a simple watering of the tree. Then he got soaked because the nozzle leaks, so he decided he might as well really go for it and got in this bucket full of water.


This isn't a real great pic of my dad with is glasses falling off, but I thought it was a cute one of him and Trevor.

Trevor was so proud of "Tato-head" that he just had to have papa come and take a picture with him.


I will get more pics of whatever we end up doing tomorrow. We planned on going to Abilene, but unfortunately Steve ended up pretty sick.

SORRY...

I only have a few faithful readers, but I apologize for not updating lately. Steve's schedule was all funky for a while, leaving me as a single mom for a week. It was hectic and I didn't take any pics. And for the last few days we have been getting our house organized and cleaned.
Papa Rick will be getting in at 4:45pm and Trevor is SOOOOO excited! He even let me put him in bed a little early!
I will post pics either tomorrow or Wednesday night-then again shortly after Papa leaves.
Have a Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Animals

On Sunday we went to the Stock Show and Rodeo to check out the exhibits and Kid Korral. Trevor was super excited as soon as we walked in the door because he saw a "big mama piggy" with a bunch of baby piggies.
I love his face in this pic...he looks so sweet petting the little piglet.
The petting zoo was free to get in but they were selling cups of carrots to feed the animals. The carrots were a hot commodity...as you can see Trevor was being mauled by the goats!

The camel was a new addition this year. He was nice for the most part...until he mistook Trevor's fingers for carrots. I literally had to tug his pinkie out of the camel's teeth. Yes, Trevor screamed for a minute...until I distracted him with the baby goats.

Here are the baby goats that he loved so much...they were quite cute and soft.
Trevor really liked the little goats.These ones weren't babies, just small ones.
The white tigers were back...the only one that was in a good position for a picture was the baby. The daddy tiger was HUGE....the guy said he weighed over 500 lbs and his paws were bigger than my head.

This has to be the cutest cow I have ever seen. Trevor really liked him too. He is a Scottish Highlander cow. He also liked the carrots!


This year we decided to let Trevor take a pony ride. I am glad we did because he loved it!
Every time he would ride by me he would do a big CHEESE!

Aren't the little piggies sweet all snuggled up for a nap?! Trevor said "Aw, cute baby piggies! Piggies sleeping."

We had a really good time. It was the only cold day all week, imagine that! But Trevor enjoyed himself. He wasn't tall enough for any of the rides yet, but didn't seem to care much. Next year we are going to actually go to a rodeo show.
He won himself an inflatable hammer in the "Chose a Duck" game and I won him a Scooby Doo in the Break a Plate game.
In other news....Papa, my dad, will be visiting in 2 weeks. Trevor is super excited to see him and I am trying to plan some fun things for us to do.

Fun Times

Trevor now seems to be over his stomach ordeal, which is nice. I got sick of doing pukey laundry...Here are a few pics from the past week.

He always wants to do something fun after Daddy goes to bed, so this night he choose to play with his Legos. He built a "castle" complete with tree, gates, garden and men. He was so proud of it he told me "Get camera mommy!" so I had to oblige him.One night we did a couple of little craft projects. Trevor picked out 2 different kinds of foam stickers at WalMart and we made a couple colorful scenes for the side of the refrigerator. He really had a good time making these.

Last night he said he wanted a tool belt for his hammer...after he proceeded to stick the handle down his diaper to hold it...boys will be boys. All the belts were in my bedroom, where Steve was sleeping, so I had to improvise with a belt from a flowery silky robe. To Trevor it was all the same, as long as he got his tool belt. He was so delighted to have a place for his hammer!

I an thinking about taking Trevor to the fairgrounds on Friday. There is a stock show and rodeo out there with some stuff for kids, like a petting zoo and some carnival rides. He had a good time last year and I am sure it will only be better for him this year.

Update Coming Soon...

...Trevor has been sick for the last couple days. It is a weird one. He has thrown up just once everyday since Thursday. Friday it ended up all over me as soon as I got home from work. Other than that, he has been seeming okay most of the day, but saying he has a tummy ache at least once every hour or so. He really hasn't been eating much at all, which is frustrating because I keep thinking that eating might make his tummy ache go away.
I have some pics from the last week to load, but won't get it done until Monday or Tuesday night.
