Just A Couple More

Lily was thankfully feeling better today so we headed out to see our friends one more time. I had to share a few quick pics from our short visit and trip to the beach. Now we are packing and heading to Spokane tomorrow and I'm sure I'll have a ton of pictures to share when I get back!

Sunny days and Godparents!

I'm 16 months old now and starting to talk more and I have been interacting with my sissy more and more. She reads books to me and we play together more. She likes to interpret for me, as well as ask me questions, although she answers for me too. I am starting to walk faster and even run a little bit, which will keep my momma on her toes at the park.
My Godparents came to visit this week but unfortunately my sister got sick after/during our visit with them on Monday so we didn't get to spend that much time with them. They have a new baby, Hank (Henry) who is so adorable (Yes, I LOVE babies!). We are going to be buddies, I can't wait!

Just a sleeping snapshot

Self tanning looks totally natural. You can't tell can you? Sneaking a ride on my sister's scooter

I think I'm almost as excited to someday ride this thing as my papa! Momma finally let me out of the stroller at swim lessons so I can sit like a big boy. I showed her she can trust me ;) I thought the girls could use a little help with the castle This could be fun!
Yes!!
A trip to Lake Padden on Friday. The water was a little colder than I expected.

I soon overcame the chill and had a blast playing in the water with sticks and rocks

Until I got a little tired

And needed to snuggle up and get warm in the sun again

Sprinkler Park, Parties, and Berries!!

What could be better! Three of my favorite things. Well, actually it was my first trip to the sprinkler park (this year) and I LOVED it! I was fearless and ran around just like those big kids. Saturday was my sister's birthday party with her friends Ava and Lucy. They all turned three this month, watch out world! Their party was at the gym where Lily does gymnastics and everyone had a blast. The girls sure looked cute in their Strawberry Shortcake outfits (coming from the little brother.) Finally, today we went out to the berry fields with our good friends the Grignons. We picked some strawberries and raspberries, my favorite. The kids could have stayed there and played all day!

Running in the sprinklers

Lily and I cooling off together I couldn't be happier! After running so hard we had to go on a pizza date downtown. Yummy! Teacher Jill helping me on the bar....watch out Lily, I'm learning too!This party is a blast sissy! Ava, Lily, do you think I can fit too? Playing at the beach by our houseThis spot is great, mama passed the berries back to me

July Sunshine!

Finally! I love this sunshine and of course being outside. It is nice for my sissy and mama now since I am getting more flexible with my nap schedule. We are able to do more things outside out and about. We have been spending time with our friends and keeping cool in the water. I am a big fan of no clothes, or just my diaper if I must.

I still love the flowers!

Fresh peas. Yummy!
You are all welcome to come over and enjoy some peas...we have plenty!

Now strawberries are a different story...I'm not sharing ;)

Watching the bigger kids on the slip and slide

Dancing with my sissy at the concert in the park

Getting tired...don't you guys know this is my bed time?

Ok, now I'm a little better...dinner!

Wow! This is one of the best days of my life...first ice cream cone (unintentionally - I stole Mama's)

I think I told you already that I love to climb?

Ta Da
King of the fort!

Big weekend

I'm finally feeling better and able to eat just about everything. Thank goodness, now I have to worry about putting that weight back on. This weekend was my sister's birthday so we were busy, busy, busy! My grandma and papa came from Spokane and my Auntie came up from Portland. We had so much fun! Berry picking, parks, barbecues, and friends were some of my favorites! Happy Birthday sissy!

This was actually a good place for me....I can sneak the berries! Guilty of what?

My patriotic outfit
I wonder why this mower isn't picking up any grass?

Who thought making a toddler boys shirt white was a good idea?

My new hat...love it!
Sometimes I just need to take a little rest

Poor Sick Boy

I scared my mama and dada this week. After three days of terrible flu symptoms mom had to take me to the ER because I was so dehydrated and sick. We spent the day in the ER, then the doctor gave us a room to stay the night, it was terrible! I was hooked up to an IV, connected at my toe by more wires, and the tests were even worse! Leave it to my mom to always have her camera, geesh!
I had a relapse one day this week, a little nervous but I'm trying to build my strength back up. I really want everything sissy is eating and drinking but I have to take it slow. I am trying to get healthy so I can party with my grandparents and Auntie. Lily is going to be 3 this Sunday! Whoo Hoo!

Waiting in the ER

Day 2...feeling a bit better. I even got to play with some neat toys!
Watching the Mariners Game with mama

Yeah...going home!

I got to ride in a wagon to the car.

Chillin' with dada on the couch....(Lily was the only one spared from this flu...lucky duck!)
