Father's Day Weekend

Our Father's Day bash started at Gymboree Play & Music. They had a COWBOY party to honor all the Dads. Little Tom and I attend Mommy & Me classes every week at Gymboree so it was extra special to have Big Tomm there.
Circle time... everyone getting seated.
Checking out Mama's socks.
Handsome in a muscle shirt and looking more like Dad everyday!
BABY SOCCER!!! Wait for it...
Hiiii- yaw!
(Whenever we play baby soccer, his whole body shakes as he anticipates the ball coming to him. It's HILARIOUS!)
Oooo! Rolling back and forth on the rolly polly mat. Also a cute pic of all the Dad's with their Little Sweeties :)
Ball overboard!
He's such a daredevil! He loves the adventurous rides.
Big Tomm bonding with another Dad and Jr. practicing some standing.
He's a climber!
A great picture! Little T crawling up the ramp to get the shaker toy. Once he got it, he didn't let go of it the rest of the party.
Haha! Weeee!!!
Riding the teeter toter with his buddy, Micheal.
A closer look at that big grin.
Inching across the bridge.
So proud of himself!
Taking a breather on the horsey. It's a workout chasing/lugging our busy boy. Haha
Little T got a balloon and played with it on the way home and the whole rest of the day.

We also decided to go to Busch Wildlife Sanctuary. It is soo cool! All the animals are rescued and rehabilitated and kept at the park. The sanctuary is supported 100% by donations.

Grrrrr! We bought a few souvenirs in the giftshop.
A little Screech Owl tucked in the bird house for some shuteye.
Some Deer eating wheelbarrow stew. Lucky them!
A regal looking Turkey.
Here is a Florida "Panther".... Tomm and I were expecting a little kitty cat. It was HUGE, like mountain lion size only a little leaner and less fluffy. WOW!
(PS: don't call it a mountain lion or some lady with red hair and big earrings will be in your face)
A Black Bear getting some shade.



Some Grey Foxes.
A gorgeous Red Fox. He was sooo cute!!!
I love him!
A stunning Bald Eagle. They are soo beautiful!
Two sleepy skunks.
A little Turtle eating a salad. LOL!
The bobcats. They each had a box to sleep in.
An Otter floating on it's back eating breakfast. HAHA
A BLONDE Raccoon! We had never seen one before. So amazing!
I love watching this little guy most!!! I bought him a little owl; it's eyes glow in the dark. He loved getting down on the ground and playing in the dirt with it.
We had such a nice weekend together! I love seeing Big and Little Tom spend time and bond; it's so beautiful!
I am so proud of Tomm! He is so devoted and such a natural Father. He is always ready to play with Little Tom. It's obvious he really enjoys the baby phase and I'm sure they'll always be close because of the time they spend together.

Happy Father's Day to Tomm! It looks like you had a wonderful family outing. I love all the pictures of Little T, he is so darling. I'm so glad I got a chance to meet him, too! You are just the cutest family.
