Thomas had his first official fishing tournament with Daddy this Saturday. We woke him up bright and early at 6 in the morning. I got him all bundled up and fed him some oatmeal. Then the boys headed out. Thomas gets so excited about fishing. Thomas doesn't really fish yet, but he has a little boy's fishing rod, and Mike ties on a frog without any hooks, and Thomas likes to drag it through the lily pads while Mike idles through the water. He plays with his rod in the water the whole time and loves the heck out of it. The weigh in was at 1:30, and when I got there, I spotted Mike's boat. I went over there, and at first I didn't see Thomas... that was because he was passed out on his belly (half way standing) in the seat. Mike said he had been sleeping like that for an hour. I jumped in the boat, and Mike drove it around to the ramp, and Thomas never woke up as he was putting the boat back on the trailer. When Mike picked him up to hand him to me, he woke up and looked all around. He said something about "Daddy's truck." They didn't place in the tournament, but Thomas got the dinosaur award for fishing his first tournament. He loved his new dinosaur and immediately started making it swim in circles in the weigh in tanks. Funny little boy.
