Black Friday

Black Friday at the Plumlee house was fairly low key. Spencer and I each took turns going for a morning run since the child care at our gym was closed. Then Seth helped me get out some of the Christmas decorations and watched in awe as Spencer climbed into the attic to get our tree out. Seth loved digging in the boxes and getting things out and handing them to us...what a helper! He likes to take just one ornament off and try to put it back on! When we got home from shopping he went straight to the tree and wanted it to be turned on! We watched "Charlie Brown Christmas" while deocrating and Seth really liked it and laughed alot! So of course he went and got his Snoopy toy! (thanks GG!!) We also can't wait for him to see the outside lights which we will put up tomorrow! Yes, we ventured out and went shopping! We didn't go in to Fort Worth, but went to Burleson (a suburb of FTW) where we knew it would be less crowded. Since we shopped after 5pm it wasn't bad at all and actually still got some pretty good deals! Seth staring at the tree saying woooow and ooooh

he's actually playing with the ribbon behind his back helping daddy put ornaments on the tree

He loves Charlie Brown

Thankful

I forgot and didn't take many pictures at Thanksgiving this year, but here are just a few. Seth finds his favorite hat and finds favorite place to sit! Spencer carved the yummy turkey and we ended up playing a mean game of Phase 10! Congrats Julie for winnning it all!!

Birthday Weekend!

We could not have asked for more perfect weather for Seth's party...warm and in the mid-70s! We all had a great time with family and friends, but missed the family that couldn't be here to celebrate with us! Seth and his friends loved the toddler bounce house we rented...it was a perfect size for them and for our backyard! He loved all of his gifts, the cake and the cupcakes his gammie made! He also loved getting to see Pop and Gran when they came down for the party!!

Christmas Sneek Peek!

What better way to get a toddler to sit still for a picture than colorful Christmas lights?!

He's 2!

Our little boy is 2! Hard to believe! Here is a picture of our time in the park on his actual birthday! More pictures of his party to come!

Fall Festival

Monday, Southcliff had their annual Fall Festival and we were excited to take Seth this year since we knew he might love the bounce house. We dressed him up as a train engineer since trains are one of his favorite things. The overalls were actually my brother's and then mine, because my grandpa wanted his grandkids to have stripped overalls. Seth loved the big train bounce house (but didn't go inside, he was too small). He eventually went into the toddler bounce house, but mostly stood over by the wall and watched and laughed at other kids bouncing around. But the thing that attracted most of his attention was the band instruments and the music! One of our college guys was the drummer and he let Seth play one of the drums! Seth was in heaven! Music is definitely in his blood! Seth as a little train engineer

our little drummer boy

Seth's reaction was 'wooooow!'

This is how Seth spent his time in the bounce house

this stuff was just too tempting not to touch
