Saturday was a big day for Chase -- Mama and Daddy bought him a big boy mattress and box springs for his bed. When Nanaw came to Chase's house on Saturday morning, she showed him two pictures of deer she saw at the cemetery -- Chase really liked the deer. While Mama and Daddy were shopping for the mattress, Nanaw took Chase to the Train House to see the train displays again. They didn't go to the Creation Station -- Chase spent all his time looking at the train displays. Nanaw had hoped Santa Claus would be there again so Chase could visit with him, but Santa won't be there again until December 12. Nanaw will find out what other days Santa is visiting and see if she can take Chase one of those days. December 12 is the day of Uncle Mike and Aunt Becky's Christmas party so Chase might not be able to go see Santa. Chase and Nanaw got popcorn on their way out -- one of their favorite parts of the visit to the Train House. At first Chase wasn't sure he wanted his new big bed -- Mama said he told them a couple of times that he wanted his old be back. But eventually he liked it -- there was lots of room for his stuffed animals, and he used his Thomas step stool to climb into bed because it's really high. Mama had bought Thomas the Train sheets and comforter, and Chase really liked that. Mama and Daddy joked that they had an ulterior motive in buying the big bed -- Chase still wants one of them to lie down on the floor next to his bed when he naps or goes to bed at night. So now they'll have a much more comfortable place to lie down.
