Having a Picnic

Hi Granny!  Yesterday my Mommy and I made dinner, packed it up, grabbed a blanket and walked to the park for a picnic.  When we got there we picked out the perfect place to have our picnic (about 2 feet from the playground).

Miss Christine always says to have healthy choices first, so I started with my sandwich.

I followed that up with some string cheese.

And no picnic would be complete without an apple!

I love you, Granny!

Trip to the Donut Shop

Hi Granny!  When my Daddy is out of town, my Mom and I try to have lots of special adventures.  Yesterday we went to the donut shop.  I got a very fancy hat.

I was super excited to get my mini donut.

I ate it all up.

Nothing goes better with a donut than some delicious milk.

I love you, Granny!

Taking Walks

Hi Granny!  My Mommy and I love taking walks together.

There is so much to do on a walk.  It's necessary to walk on every ledge.

It's important to smell the flowers.

It's impossible to ignore a stick.

And once you find a stick, make sure you plant it.

If you find a marigold-

you must make sure to blow it away.

And if you happen to come across a pole - give it a hug.

I love you, Granny!

I Play Soccer Now!

Hi Granny!  Did you know that I play soccer now?

Before you play soccer you have to stretch.

And do lots of warm ups.

You should also practice looking very cute in your soccer gear.

I love you, Granny!

My Birthday: Part 2

Hi Granny!  Part 2 of my birthday started with talking to Silly Joe on the computer.  I had to give him a big computer hug.

Then I changed into my beautiful birthday dress.  Do you know who made it?  You did, Granny!  And Great Mama helped!

Look how beautiful it is!

It looks particularly good with a parasol.

Lots of people showed up for my birthday party - Aunt Mira and Uncle Jack came all the way from Fredonia!

I caught a couple of rides from Uncle Ryan.

And then it was time to blow out the candles on my chocolate banana cake that Uncle Ryan made for me by special request.

I love you, Granny!

My Birthday: Part 1

Hi Granny!  I turned 3 last week!  It was a very exciting day.  When I woke up I found balloons that my Daddy got for me.

I sure do love balloons.

Then I went outside and found the sandbox that my Grammy and Grandpa got me.

I had to play in it immediately.

 Then Katy, my Mommy and I went to the pancake store for my favorite breakfast.

Katy taught me how to use her camera.

Next we went to the Choo Choo Monga train.

Now that I'm 3 I like to ride it all by myself.

Then we went to the candy store where my Mommy let me pick out a couple of things.  Then my Mommy made Katy buy her a peanut butter and chocolate egg.  She let me try a little bite.  A very little bite.

Before I knew it, there was Daddy!

We all shared a delicious lunch at Chipotle.

I love you, Granny!
