Thomas Show

When Ben picked up the boys, the buzz in the classroom was about the Thomas Show!! We met so mommy could get Turner, as mommy had a date night planned with Turner. Once Taylor discovered that Turner was going in my car and he was going with daddy, the chaos began!! ( Funny enough, Taylor LOVES his daddy. Daddy hung the moon. Normally, it is Tay who says "daddy's car". He must have sensed that he was missing out or heard about the show at school. )Taylor screamed and didn't want to go with daddy! Poor guy was hysterical, while Turner kept going " Go Thomas. Go Percy. Come mommy!!!"

* Mommy and her work friends planned this adventure. Mommy was worried about taking both boys, so she chose Turner, who is obssessed with Thomas!! As a twin mommy, it is hard to give each one individual time and we really try to do one on one activities with them when possible. As excited as I was to be with Turner, I felt that sadness of hurting Tay's feelings.
Turner and Mommy at the show: Turner was gun shy by the piercing bright lights, the kid's excitement and the strange man who mommy got to take our picture.

Turner still clinging to mommy. Mommy was loving that!!! Usually, I have to beg him to sit on my lap and love on me. He was holding my hands like my lover and nuzzling his head on my shoulder. See the smile on mommy's face!!

Borrowing Zander's light helped him open up!!!



Cookies always help too!!!

In conclusion: It was a hit!! Turner sat on my lap the whole time, holding my hands, snuggling with me, and in total awe!! Mommy was a bit disappointed in the show, but Turner was not. As we left he said " bye thomas, bye percy, bye topham hat, night-night diesel!" He clearly got it and loved it!!!
Taylor Update: Mommy and Turner came home before bedtime to find pizza in the refrigerator and two sleeping indians in daddy and mommy's bed with the tv on and ice cream all over little indian's outfit. So, I am sure Taylor had a great time with daddy! Pizza and ice cream out and movie in our bed, i assume???....I can't wait to hear more about it tomorrow!!!
