Christmas Update 2.

Well since someone asked, and sure others are wondering how candi told me, we started trying in december, and last sunday when we got home from a christmas get together on her side, i was bringing the last of items in from the car. when i got inside parker goes

"dada, mama baby dubbadub" ( dubbadub= tummy to him, (its a long story))
I said what and he said it again, he was jumping up and down on the couch at the time, i look over at candi who is standing by the sink and she just shakes her head and starts crying......so there you have it.


now back to christmas morning, or course santa stacked the stockings full.
parker is working on his.

baby got a tink ornament to start there collection for the tree.

candi got the purse she wanted from disney.

and of course every little boy needs a sherriff buddy to help him fight crime.

the whole gang together.

disney transportation. all three buses, the on site ones, the magical express one, and the cruise line one.

parker ornament.

some disney cruiser cars for his mickey semi.

the mickey semi getting its pasangers.

candi with here very own lady doll she loved it, she has wanted one since she saw the movie.

and the start of her disney quote plaques to go with her disney snow globes.

once we were done with breakfast we still had a few more things to open and parker was all done, we asked him if he got everything from santa yet, and he said yep, i told him that i think he might have left something in mommy and daddies room, here is his reaction

here is his bike and his reaction when he saw his next gift.

now this next gift, every time he had seen santa he told him that he wanted a big choo choo...and santa would say, ill see what i can do.

so i started thinking. and i looked online and found some big choo choo for him.

well we knew that we were going to start trying to have another child, and some of parker current furniture in his room would go to a babies room, well that included his drawer unit along with the shelving built into it, and one of his toy boxes is for a baby themed room...so i thought lets get him a train toy box

i found a design for one online that you could buy but it wasnt exactly what i was thinking about.

so i printed the design off and started building it myself.

the early stages.

before any tops or top of the box is put on.

here is working on the wheels which i didnt finish up, because they were taking forever to carve out the holes in them, and the dust was hurting breathing it in some.

the box finished up (minus the wheels) i had to move everything in this playroom to even get it in the door, and i did good on the measuring of the top roof, since i had about 1/8 of an inch on both sides when bringing it in the doorways of the bedrooms, that was one thing i didnt think of measuring but it ended up working out.

did parker like it, of course, he ran back and forth for a half hour straight putting toys in it.

we then went to the family on my side for lunch, and then out to candis family to celebrate with them.

hope everyone has a safe and fun new year.

those plaques are from the hallmark store, we have noticed that not all of them carry them, but ours finally start to carry them so i picked up a few to start her collection, they had about 15 different ones available.
