Traveling Tait & Hillbilly Parents

While I was in Florida with the girls, Trent took Tait to B-town to visit Gma Lantz. They went out to eat with her, A Mary, & the boys.






Trent is a really good Mr Mom. Sometimes I can almost start to think he is a better Mom than I am-he is a really good house-cleaner and has a lot of fun with Tait. That's when he reminds me that when he watches Tait, it is a once-in-a-while-let's-do-fun-things-all-day thing, whereas I take care of Tait every day, and it's different when you have to think about mundane life chores like laundry and clean dishes.

So anyways, they had lots of adventures while I was gone. John, Trent & Tait met at a restaurant with a playplace.


Trent also took Tait to a fire station. He loved it! The firefighters let him sit in the truck and even turned the lights and siren on while he was there! What a Dad ( :


In other news, WE ARE HILLBILLIES! I know trent is going to use this picture as evidence of his dire need for a truck. Sometimes I even get suspicious that he uses his Camry for ridiculous tasks so that one day I will break down and say "Fine! Go buy a 2009 Grey Toyota Tundra Extended Cab! We need one now!" I had to get a picture of him hauling yard waste in his Camry trunk ( :


Thankfully there were no friendly officers around!

So, here's the Blow by Blow account:

Jeremy offers to cut Tait's hair.
Mandy turns him down-wants to try a scissors-cut and has an appt made.
Jeremy and brothers decide to buzz Tait's hair while Mandy's at work.
Trent picks Tait up and expresses his disapproval.
Mandy comes home and has a coronary.
Jeremy & Co. are now on the Blacklist. Majorly.

PS Go back to that 1st picture of Tait to see his newest trick-climbing on the table and getting into the cinnamon sugar. Sticky brown handprints everywhere. That will be an isolated incident, hopefully ( :
