Perio Graduation Year 2

  Yesterday was perio graduation, thank goodness that means another year down.  This year was exciting because the whole time we kept thinking that will be us next year!  We went to Churchill Downs again and had some fun.  This year Landon was old enough to really watch the horses, of course he liked the trucks driving around the track spraying and smoothing it just as much, but progress is progress.  When we arrived this year everyone thought we was cute, probably because we was just waking up and quiet.  When he got some food in him then came standing up on the highchair and being noisy.  Enough so that the waitress brought us a coloring book and little play horses.  Then we decided to go see the little petting zoo they had.  Landon loved looking at the animals a little petting, but mostly looking.  He would kind of jump when the pig oinked.
The little calf slept the whole time!

Then we tried to get him to ride a adorable little pony, he screamed both times we tried.  Oh well!  We went to the paddock thinking he would love to see the horses up close.  No he cried and screamed and ran away.   Back upstairs for the next hour I chased him around and up and down all the stairs on the balcony where we watch the horses race, but he only cried really hard once when he face planted on the concrete after falling down a stair.  Yes next year it will be better, we will definitely have grandparents there to help take care of the two rugrats!

   Later that night we went out to dinner for the actual graduation ceremony and there Landon met some friends to help cause trouble.  He behaved OK and we made it through.  Jace even received a gift from the graduating class, The Idiot's guide to Fatherhood.  Now we just have to get him to read it.  It was a fun weekend overall and hopefully many of you can come celebrate our graduation next year!
