disney on ice

frank and i decided about a month ago that tuscan was way over due for a mommy and daddy day, all by himself, with no little brothers to get him in trouble or distract us from him. so when we saw that advertisements for disney on ice, we knew exactly what we needed to do! frank, being the wonderfully generous daddy that he is, asked for tickets for his birthday from my dad and beth (thanks again guys!!) my brother and lindsay offered to babysit the twins for us (thanks again to you guys too!)

so we set the date, made the plans and already the day has come and gone...but what a memorable one it was.

we took tuscan out for pizza before hand and to our surprise he was a perfect child, sat in his seat the whole time and ate every morsel of pizza on his plate! the things kids will do for an opportunity to see mickey mouse!

when we got to the arena tuscan was in absolutely amazement. i dont think he blinked at all during the 3 hours we were there!! we walked all around to see all the concession stands (which were way over priced and we were grateful there wasnt anything that tuscan "had to have") we did spluge a little and got a picture taken of the 3 of us at a mickey mouse display, tuscan held his hand and could barely smile because he was in such awe! and then the show started...

this was how he sat for the whole first half...it took him over an hour to eat that sucker!

but it was amazing...he loved every minute of it and we were so happy to spend some time with just him. becoming a big brother at a year and a half to two babies was definitely alot to ask of him, but he has taken it on with such stride and is growing and developing in ways that have made us so proud. he is such a lover (most of the time) and is so smart. i cant wait to share another day like this with him in the future...actually i cant wait till the twins are old enough to charish individual mommy and daddy days too! we are so blessed with such amazing boys.
