Busy as a Bee

Last weekend we went with Uncle Brad and Aunt Kristin to the Bay City River Roar. I couldn't believe how fast those boats went. It was so fun. Besides, lots of people were watching me and talking about how cute I was, so excited about the boats and coordinating shirts with Dad.
Yesterday Mom took me to the library for "Touch a Truck Day." I got a new fire hat and construction hat. It was fun to sit in the driver's seat of the fire engine, but I really liked to drive the gian municipal lawn mower. Maybe Daddy should get a riding mower!


Over Father's Day, GrampS and Grammy came for a visit. This is the finger painting I made for GrampS. I think he liked it. I know he liked all of my new tricks. There are even more tricks up my sleeve now. I love to walk all over the place, especially at home. I do best if I have a destination in mind, but you can start to find me wandering more. I can even pull myself up in the middle of the room now. Also, you should ask me what animals say. My favorites are a cow, horse, fish, sheep, doggie and bird.

Bubbles, Bikes and Bottoms Up!

What a busy time it has been for us now that the weather has warmed up. I have been outside riding my bike, getting pulled behind Mom and Dad's bike, trying really hard to walk, and on rainy days, I like to smash bubbles with my cymbals indoors. I took my frist few steps when Dad was away in Asia for a few weeks and I have been trying to run around ever since. The only part I still have trouble with is the getting to the standing position without anything to pull up on. So you'll often find me walking around like a gorrilla with my buns high in the air. And you should see me on my bike! I am a regular old speed demon. That's why they put the helmet on me. Besides, Mom and Dad always wear one.


With the hot weather, I went to Down Gardens for storytime today and they had the sprinklers on for us. I had so much fun getting me and Mama wet. Boy did I get tuckered out after that! I think I get to go swimming this weekend at Gramma and Grampa's cottage. We are going to go with Uncle Brad and Aunt Kristin.

On another note, I am getting excited about being a big brother. I like to give mom's growing belly a hug. Did you know that we are going to turn our house into wrestle-mania? We are going to have another boy in the house. Oh yeah!
