WEDDING WEEKEND

It's official...my brother finally tied the knot! We had a weekend full of wedding activity that Cale thoroughly enjoyed! So many people and so much commotion for one little guy, but he was a champ and did as well as any 2 year old could do!

Here is Jason and I at the rehearsal dinnerCale at the rehearsal dinner, eating his very own home cooked PB&J sandwich! So glad I brought that!
Pre wedding, Pre pictures. Thank God the church had a playroom. It really saved the day! He and the three triplet flower girls had this room torn apart in a matter of seconds, but it was well worth the effort to pick it up!

Finally getting used to his tux. He cried for at least the first 45 minutes after we got him dressed cuz he didn't want to wear it. Not to mention the screaming match while attempting to dress him, starting with the black socks!!! You can imagine the sight we were...pregnant mom in strapless dress, sweating like a maniac while wrestling with her screaming toddler to get his pants pulled up! Started having flashbacks of his Baptism day with his clothes not fitting....we couldn't get the very top button of his dress shirt buttoned so the collar was like hanging open under his tie! After that, I said "forget about the damn cuff links and suspenders!" But all in all, he looked pretty well put together!

How precious are my two boys?!!?

All dressed up and ready to go for pictures...or so we thought! Cale did not participate in the actual pictures (sorry Andrea and Darik!) Not even the mention of all the treats in the world was getting him to be a part of that! Go figure!

Our little family!

And of course, me and Jason---Cheesy, I know!

I was never so proud in my life! My little man walked down the aisle after all! Noone thought he would make it! He did so good! It was priceless watching his eyes dart back and forth from side to side, searching for Grandma T....once there he knew his job was over
And then he passed out minutes after making it to Grandma--too much stress for one little man!

Mommy, Gretchen, and Cale enjoying the night!

Cale got used to the party scene very quickly....loved the dance floor and all the flashing lights! Couldn't get enough of the dancing and singing. Here he is taking a quick drink break before heading back out to boogie!

"Chucky Cheese!!!!!!!!!!"

Here goes Mr Smooth, trying to find the ladies! What a strut!

Cale dancing with Uncle D and Auntie A!!!!

What can I say....a Ladies Man at the young age of two!!!!!!!!!

DAY OUT WITH THOMAS!!!!!!!

Last weekend we headed to downtown Lakeville to spend the day with Thomas the Train! Cale had a blast. There were tons of other little boys and girls there, but Cale didn't seem to pay any attention to them, he was in his own little "Thomas World" that noone else could break through! Amazingly, he couldn't get enough of this little sand station--nothing great or exciting, but it was the one thing he kept running back to once we were done riding Thomas.

This little train station was the first time I actually saw the "toy hoarding" Cale come out--he did not want to share any of the trains. He kept thinking he could just keep making his train longer and longer by grabbing everyone else's as soon as they stepped away from it for one minute!
Choo Choo! Here comes Thomas to pick us up!

ALL ABOARD!!!!!!!!!!

Inside Thomas, on the upper deck...the only thing missing was some Thomas music or something. For as much as we paid for that stinking train ride, you would think they would have AT LEAST thought of that!

Looking out the window of the train at another train!

Posing by his buddy (too bad I cut his head off!)

Running through the hay maze--he was pretty quick at finding his way out--impressive!
