8-11-08...rain, rain, go away

It was thunder and lightning pretty awful...so Momma wouldn't even let me go out and play in it. All I coudl do was stand at teh screen door and listen and watch.


Since I couldn't go outside, Momma helped me feel better by helping me make this art project about things I see outside in August. She hung it near my changing table and now every time I get changed I talk about it.

8-10-08...one more story before I go



8-9-08...Surprise Saturday

Surprise #1. The berries that grow on the bush in Grama's yard are D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S! I fed a bunch to Grama first (to make sure it was safe). After I saw Hawg eat one I decided it was probably okay and then I started gobbling them down myself. Grama kept telling me to bring one to Momma...but I kept eating Momma's.


Surprise #2. Daddy wants a tug boat. When we got to the Canal Fest there was a real tug boat there that we could go on and look around. I got to drive it (well play with the wheel anyway). Daddy said he wants a tug boat. He's not sure why...he just does.


Surprise #3. for Uncle Thomas.
Uncle Thomas turned 25 on the 7th, and Aunt Emily planned a surprise party for him today. Oh boy - was he surprised! I kept trying to blow my party horn, but it was tough.
I thought it was much easier to give Uncle Thomas a thorough oral exam...with a plastic spoon.
4. We found a bus/train at the party. Look! I guess it is a bus, pretending to be a train. I don't blame it. Choo-choos are so cool. Isn't it neat?

8-8-08...Playing with Pop





Pop seems to like cars as much as I do. His favorite was the tank. Did you knwo Pop drove a tank when he was a Marine? He told me all about it. He drove the tank all around and made cool noises. I thought it was great!

August 7, 2007 - skinny dipper






One last swim before we leave to visit Grama & Pop.
Who needs swim diapers?

Big Boy Cereal


I haven't really been happy with breakfast lately - all my old favorite foods have lost their charm. So today Momma decided to try something new...Big Boy Cereal!...in a bowl with milk and a spoon and eveything. I've had Cheerios before, and I've had milk before, but never together at the same time like this. I L-O-V-E-D it! I had three helpings and then happily said, "Aw duh!"

And the train goes on...




My train obsession continues. Today I mastered the "cha-cha cha-cha, cha-cha cha-cha, chooooo chooooooo!" sound that I need to make when I play with my choo choos. I made it all day long.
