mothers day out

So I have been looking for a mothers day out place for Locke since we got here. Just something that's once a week for 2 or 3 hours so he can be with other kids and I can be all by myself. After much research i talked to a neighbor who took her little boy to the Westin hotel kids center. I went and checked it out and it was perfect. I can take him anytime as long as i make a reservation a day ahead. I took him on Thursday from 1-4 and it couldn't have gone better.

The place is focused to Japanese tourist so there were alot of cute little Japanese kids and Locke. He stands out a little bit. Next time I will take a picture because when i came to pick him up it was snack time and about 25 kids were sitting around picnic tables, Locke's little blonde head was bobbling up down. it was precious. He liked it so much that he looked at me when i walked in, smiled, and then ran back to the play area because he did not want to leave. Cant wait to take him next week!

We have a new baby in the family!!!!! Sweet Max was born today. He is perfect. congrats to Kyle, Janelle, and Emma for the new addition to there family. I am so lucky to have a sweet nephew. We cant wait to see him at Christmas!

Tumble Time

Locke is really loving to get on top of stuff. I mean he stands on his toys, books, the bed ,couch, and really anything he can find he wants to stand on top of it. So,I took Locke to a kids Tumble, play-place on Wednesday. It was ........funish. It was a big giant room with balls, mats, and slides. It kept his interest for....like 30 minutes. Like his dad, he gets bored very easily. But it was fun for something different to do. I met a lady who has a 2 year old son and takes him to a mothers day out type program to afternoons a week. This is exactly what i have been looking for! I just want Locke to get to hangout with other kids his age on a regular basis. So we will be checking into that next week!

Not a whole lot going on here. It's been raining alot. Clint likes it though because it causes big waves for him to go surfing. Oh he got another board....Not a paddle board but a surf board. He loves it! He met some other local people who surf and has been trying to go out with them every morning "to catch some waves". I'm glad he likes it.

We met some really nice people who live in our complex and they are having there wedding reception in the front of our complex today. It looks like a big celebration! It will be fun to see how the local people throw a party and get to try some of there local foods.

Oh our Thai place opened back up last night. It's a whole new crew of people. I guess the lady who use to run it went back to Thailand. It was still really good. I am glad it's open. It's nice to have somewhere in walking distance for great Thai food.

Our Thai Resturant closed

We were driving back from picking up Clint from work the other day and realized Patataya(the neighborhood Thai restaurant) was closed! There was a sign "closed, new management". The thing is this family of like 4 people owned the joint so we aren't sure whats going on. It is awesome food though. It's just a 6 table, hole in the wall place. If you want something to drink they take it out of the fridge in the dining room. It's small, but awesome! A dude takes your order and there is a cook in the back that throws it together and it is awesome! It's always crowded. we usually have to wait half an hour or so to get our food because they cook it as you order it so you wait you have to wait your turn.

It's our go to take out place! hope it opens back up soon!!

In the mean time we checked out this other Thai place(there are allot of them, like Mexican places in OK) it was kinda scary. They also sold used DVDs and cigarettes in a see through glass shelf. The food was not so good. oh well

Locke is really taking interest to the slide outside. Clint took him on and let him go down by himself.....he came down upside down. OH well he is learning
