Hoop Star!

CHECK OUT MY NEW BASKETBALL HOOP!!!! Oh, my gosh! Mommy went to a friend's yard sale and snagged this hoop for me. Check out my initial reaction in the video!

Pink-Dress Cutie

Well, the next day after we went to visit Grandma and Pappa Steve, it was pretty nice weather again, so Mommy, Daddy, and I enjoyed the time outside. I spent some quality time with Mommy hunting little rocks in our side yard. Then My Favorite Aunt Avery came over to hang out with me while Mommy and Dadddy went to some Senior Awards Banquet for Daddy's school.

Mother's Day and Birthday Presents

Just before we headed home, we gave Grandma her Mother's Day present, which I helped her open. Then Grandma gave Mommy her birthday present! I helped Mommy open her present too. I'm a good present helper.

Bubble Sword

I also had a chance to play with the bubbles at Grandma's. They were in this cool sword like set-up, where you had a wand, or sword, where the bubbles came out of, and a sheath-like reservoir for the bubble juice. Once you ran out of bubbles on the wand, back into the sheath it went, then out again like drawing a sword! So cool. Then you could swing it around like a sword and the bubbles would fly out!

Hanging out with Grandma and Pappa Steve

Yep, it was a pretty fabulous day last Saturday. I had all kinds of fun playing outside with Grandma, Pappa Steve, and everyone else outside! There were squirt guns, water balloons, bubbles, and a big cook-out for dinner!

Fun with water outside at Grandma's

After our candy fun, we all went outside to play in the great warm weather with squirt guns and water balloons!

Candy at Grandma's!

Last weekend, Mommy, Daddy, and I went to see Grandma and Pappa Steve in Goldendale. A couple of my step-cousins were there: Chaz and Carson. Grandma had a surprise for us right away: some gummy wormy thingies that you picked up with these chop-sticky thingies that made the wormy thingies light up! How cool is that! I think I had more fun playing with them than eating them, but I'm not much into sweets yet.

Twenty-Two

Here I am at 22 Months, playing one of my favorite games: do whatever I can to dodge Daddy's attempts to take my picture up close! I'm so crazy. And then there I am takin' care of my business in the video. Two months till I'm two!

Fun with Mommy

You know, my Mommy is a pretty cool gal. She's always willing to play with me. For example, there she was planning on taking a nice cozy nap, all snuggled up in that blue blanky, but she was willing to help me play peek-a-boo with Daddy and the camera anyway. And out back she likes to chase me around and stuff. I sure love my Mommy!

Mother's Day and Krispy Kreme

Oh, yeah, baby. Mother's Day has come again, and here we all are enjoying some Krispy Kreme Donuts. It's tradition. You just don't mess with tradition. And this year I got to try out my first Krispy Kreme!

Back Deck

After we got the front yard all straightened out, we moved to the back to pot some flowers, pull some weeds, and hang out on the deck in the sun.

Gardening in Tacoma!

Last Saturday, Mommy, Daddy, and I went up to Tacoma for a little get-together at Great-Grandma Kay's house. Grandma and Grandpa were there, and so was Uncle David. Cousins Mandy and Noel, and even Aunt Karen were there as well! We all pitched in to weed and plant some flowers around Great Grandma's house.

Gift Bag Hat

Who needs party hats when you've got gift bags that fit just perfectly on your head?

Mommy's Presents!

After we all chowed down on Baja Fresh food, it was time for Mommy to open her presents. Oh, man! I got to help Daddy go shopping for them, and even wrap them. It was so much fun. Almost as much as helping Mommy open them!
