Fun Times!

So we had another fun weekend! On Friday we went to music in the park in Brentwood. I love music and I love dancing, so I really loved dancing in the park with Kristopher and Ella. Then on Saturday, Marie, Olivier, Kristopher, Ella, Connor and baby Katie came over to our house to have some bar-b-q. I've been told that I'm a picky eater, but I do enjoy those potato chips !


Here's Marie and Kristopher on our patio hanging out with me. I sure would like it if Kristopher shared some of that apple juice.
On Sunday, we went with Logan to Pixieland, a tiny amusement park in Concord. The best part about the place - its designed just for kids my age. Here I am, driving with Daddy.

Next I went on the tea cups with Mommy, Logan and Aunt Ginny. Dad told us to spin faster, but Mommy said I would get too dizzy. (Logan & I are inspecting the tea cup.)
I also took a train ride around the park. I saw a turtle and a bunny on the side of the train, although I was a bit more interested in sticking my hands out the windows on the train (you cant see the windows on the picture, they're pretty close to the floor).

Another busy weekend coming up. We're going to go camping with the whole gang at Lake Chabot. I can't wait for the long weekend to start!

Food...

So those who have dined with me lately know I'm not the bravest of eaters. I really enjoy the basics: cheese, bread, 'nanas. But tonight Mommy and Daddy were eating these things called "artichokes" that looked interesting. Who would've guessed I might like them? Mommy gave me a taste and I was hooked!

After I decided I liked it, I even learned how to eat an artichoke! I prefer holding the petals myself:)

My spaghetti was still pretty tasty...



Back From Florida!

We're back! We had a great trip to Florida, and narrowly escaped Tropical Storm Fay! We left Thursday night, and flew overnight. When we arrived Friday morning Aunty Katy was there to pick us up! We hopped in the car and went back to check out their new house. Which was awesome! Stairs complete with a banister that I could peek through! We went and had some awesome food for lunch - Chik-Fil-A! Then it was time for some naps in the car...

That night we went out to dinner for Aunty Katy's birthday, where I found some good music...

Saturday we got ready for the big party! We had a shrimp boil and some BBQ, and of course yellow cake with chocolate frosting! Sunday we hung around the house while Daddy and Uncle Eddie built a new cat and ferret house. We cooked some dinner and took it easy after the big party day. Monday we got ready to leave, packed and stuff:( We flew out just in time, before the storm arrived. We got home safely, and now we're exhausted!

Camping at Lake Chabot

So at the beginning of the week Grandma noticed my sneak-a-tooth! Number 12, it's here! Now I have six teeth on top, six on the bottom.

I showed off a new skill too...sign language! I like to use the symbol for "more" a lot! It's pretty handy. Hahaha...no pun intended! (Or maybe it was!)

We left Friday to go camping at Lake Chabot with Kristopher, Ella, Alyssa, and Amanda. We had a good night, stayed up late. Then we got up in the morning and ran laps inside the trailer! It's a great way to wake up our parents! Saturday we had some pancakes (my favorite!) and then went for a hike. I rode in the backpack with Daddy, and it was so fun when he ran and jumped! But after a while of looking at trees, I decided to take a nap. I woke up and we were still hiking! Eventually we got back and I got to play with Kristopher while everyone else took a nature walk. We had pizzas for lunch - yummy!


Abby and Logan joined us for the afternoon. Lots of playing, getting dirty. We had dinner and then played some more! It was exhausting!


Then it was time for bed. Sunday morning we got up and had french toast and Daddy made omelettes for everybody! Then we packed up and headed home. At home we just had an easy afternoon, just hanging out.

More Teeth!

Wow, so I've got more teeth coming in! Numbers 10 and 11 popped in, both molars. Now I have six teeth on the bottom and five on top.

We had a nice weekend. Friday Abby & Logan came over to visit. Then we stayed home with Grandma while Mommy & Daddy went out to a movie with Auntie Ginny and Uncle Jason. Saturday we hung out at home during the day and went out to visit Kristopher & Ella in the afternoon. We had dinner at their friend's house and went back to their house to play. Mommy and Aunt Kathrin stayed to play some game while we went back to the house.

Sunday we went to a BBQ at Connor & Katie's house. Uncle James came too, and took this picture:


It was a nice evening! Now it's back to the week, back to school and hanging out with Grandma!
