Me: "Tate, hold the squash like a baby."
Tate:

Our baby may have a fighting chance against Tate. He might just enjoy having her around.

Year of Tate: Day 226

August 14, 2014
 It was quite a fun day for Tate today. We started out by babysitting a little boy (which is not fun for Tate, he hate the sharing of toys and attention).  After babysitting we went to The Museum of Natural Curiosity. Tate loved the water room and the wind tunnel.

In the wind tunnel.

After that we went to pick up Husband at work and got a little dinner. Then we headed to the Sunset Safari at the zoo.  It was nice to not have all the crowds but most of the animals were asleep though we did get to see some of the animals that are normally asleep during the day up and awake.

He loves this statue. He kept asking to take it with us and tired to pull it out of the ground. So if anyone is wondering about birthday presents...

It was a fun day and Tate and I were very tired by the end of it (I was also very swollen by the end). I wish we could have more days like this!

Tate really likes the iPad. 

When did he get so big?

I had a doctor appointment today so my mom watched Tate while I was gone. He had a great time aparently.

Sliding with his helmet on. Safety is a top priority for Tate.

Wearing Papa Mike's glasses.

Watering the flowers.

Trying to water Courtney.

Thanks for taking such good care of Tate while I was gone!

Year of Tate: Day 215

August 3, 2014

We celebrated Tate's birthday today. Tate won't actually be 2 until the end of the month but having your sister who lives in Florida here is a good excuse to celebrate early.  We had the party at a park and even though the weather was rainy and windy at the beginning it cleared up enough to not be horrible. The park was a huge hit with all the kids and the adults loved that the kids had something to do while waiting on food.

Tate was so excited for his cake and loved all the attention when everyone was singing.

He waited so patiently until the song was over then blew out his candles.

Cake is so yummy!

Tate fell asleep while holding cousin Peter's hand in the backseat. Precious.
