Nathan's 2 year Stats

Better late than never, right? So, since we're not quite at a month after Nathan's 2nd birthday, here are his stats.

He weighed in at 26 lbs and 8 oz. This is the 32%. His height is 35 1/4 inches which is 74%. He's actually really leaned out. I'm thinking it is all of the bike riding he's doing! So, based upon how tall and lean he is, it is not IF he'll pass Silas in height, it is more like.....WHEN and how quickly! I looked back at Silas's 2 year stats and he was 33 1/2 inches, so we'll see if this holds true and how quickly Nathan passes Silas up!

Other than that, I wanted to post a few pictures of what we did to surprise Nathan for his birthday. I had heard about a celebration in the Denver area for A Day out with Thomas the Train. Nathan and Silas both really enjoy playing with trains, so we decided to surprise them. We left on a Saturday around nap time, so Nathan and Abby slept in the car and Silas just hung out, but we told them we had to drive quite a ways to do some errands. So, we got to the festival and had to park and then take a bus. That would have been fun enough for them (gotta love this age!) and they still didn't know what we were doing. Then, we pulled up to the festival and there was a full size train carrying people and it truly looked like Thomas. I wish I had it on camera both Silas and Nathan saying, "Thomas!" They were truly amazed. So we had a very special day looking at trains and then getting to ride on Thomas as a family. Here are some pictures from that day.

This is what Thomas looked like, so you can see why Silas and Nathan were so amazed. It truly looks like Thomas with the eyes moving and a conductor on board. It was really neat for the kids.
