Trains and Mickeys

Now I remember why for the past few weeks we have not been enforcing naps on the weekend.... Up at 5:30 ready to go. So two hours later, I have finished our Christmas cards, last bit of Christmas shopping, wrapped up Scentsy orders, organized my school bag for the week and am on my third cup of coffee.

This past week Granddaddy set up his train for Christopher. Christopher was so excited. This was the look on his face when we got there the first day...

He spends a lot of time on the floor with the train, putting his horses and men on the train for a ride...
 

 
Christopher has also been on a major Mickey Mouse kick. It is all he wants to do lately- "I watch Mickey Mouse. Where's my Mickey? Where's my Goofy?" But I will say he is learning lots from it.. The other day he was pretending with mom and he got inside of Stroonz's crinkle tunnel and said he was in a spaceship and was going to Mars. Then, he put Goofy in the basketball net, came over to get Nana and said "Emergency, Nana! Goofy is stuck!" I'm pretty sure no one around here has used the word emergency lately.... :) Whenever I say I need something, he says "We need mouse-ke-tools."  Christopher went to the mall on Thursday to ride the train and go to the Disney store....
 
Carrying around lots of Goofys.
 
We also went for his 30 month checkup this week- a little late, but finally done nonetheless. Christopher was so excited to go meet Doc McStuffins. LOL. When she walked in, he said "nice to meet you" and stuck his hand out. Now I will say I prepped him a little by saying - what do you do when you meet someone new... And when she walked in he was ready to go! He was quite talkative, told her all about going to the potty and counting and the ABCs. But unfortunately for her, she is now the bad guy because Christopher did get his flu shot and when you ask him about going to the doctor, he says "The doctor hurt me."
 
Here are some random pictures from the past few weeks!
 
Wearing his football helmet. Granddaddy got that for him when they were at the Florida State game. Christopher was saving his money to buy a helmet, but now that he has this, he is saving for a bouncy ball. :)
 
Waiting for Mr. Eddie to come so he can show off his Superman jammies.

Teaching daddy how to find matches.

Just a nice swift kick to the face. Christopher was showing off his somersault skills and Uncle Anthony had to give it a whirl- but he didn't go straight. And it just happened to be the morning of our family pictures.
 
Thankfully the pictures turned out okay.
 
Christopher likes to pretend he is a baby.

Cheesing in his Uncle Anthony look alike shirt!

A snazzy new haircut.
Short and sweet.
 
5 more days of work and then off for 9 days... ahhhhh. Sounds so nice!
Happy Sunday. We are off to church and then to see a train show!
Be kind.
