Critter Class

Blake is a beast of a toddler, bigger than most in every sense of the word. He is lovable and cuddly and a joy but at the same time can be aggressive and alpha male and stubborn, much like all the males in this house and so it comes as no surprise to any who know us. Socialization is much needed and we were not quite ready for preschool so when I heard about Critter Class at the amazing Tallahassee Museum I knew I wanted to give it a try. After the first class I quickly pre-registered for months and months in advance because it is awesome. Excuse the crappy pictures I was having lighting/setting issues that day.

The boy loves to run, until he doesn't when he quickly asserts to me that I will be carrying him, all size 4T, 35 pounds of him.

They have indoor activities set up like counting and puzzles etc,and this particular day finger painting which of course Blake got green paint on his brand new crewcut sweatshirt. Oh it still hurts to think about since it DID NOT COME OUT! Then they have outdoor activities like bubbles and dirt digging and shaving cream painting. Then we head to whichever animal is the focus for that week to take a real life peek, and read a story. This usually means snack time for most of the kiddos

This is P, I love her and all that she is. She is gorgeous, strong willed, and a take no crap kind of girl just the kind of girl my Bub needs. Except they are going through something right now, I think Blake liked it better when she would just lay on her back and he could lay on top of her at which point they could get lost in each others amazing baby blues...Now she takes his toys, or doesn't give him her toys, and she hits him right back, like I said she is not fooled by his beauty :)

These two pictures represent their current relationship perfectly, one minute love, the next not so much. Doesn't P look quizzical about the state of affairs, if she only knew men will forever be hard to understand.
