An Apple Orchard/Pumpkin Patch Weekend!

I had a great weekend full of apples, pumpkins, family and friends! First stop on Saturday was Edward's Orchard. This was my 4th time I think, and I had so much fun like always. The weather was beautiful!! Perfect orchard weather.

Mommy barely got me to sit still for this picture because I was so excited to be there (and out of the car)...

The great pirate ship! I had Grandma H come on this with me too...

I really liked this scarecrow. I ran back to him several times while we were there...

Crashed in the car on the way home!

Sunday I went to Skelly's in Janesville to meet Baby Natalie and Baby Sophie (Sophie is actually 15 months old, but Baby Sophie is her name to me!). Baby Natalie and her Mommy weren't feeling the best and couldn't stay very long so I didn't even get a picture!

Here Sophie was just waking up so she wasn't too sure about me yet...

A great playground at this pumpkin patch too!

Playing in the corn box. I had a great time in this! Next year I think I'll be too big to actually climb in it though.

Trying out the ducky race. This was very serious!

I had a great weekend and love Fall! Have a great week everyone!

I'm three!!

Yesterday I turned 3, and had my birthday party! It was a wonderful day!

Here is what I woke up to. Grandma R came early and put blue balloons in the living room. I am still a little out of it, but I was very happy (I love balloons).

The "theme" this year was blue since that has been my favorite color for a long time. Of course the week before the party, I was starting to change my mind to red, but I still really like blue.

Here I am as a ghost. Aunt Amanda made this for me (ok, it is supposed to hang up, but it is much more fun to wear it)!

Here are Uncle and Aunt Amanda's halloween costumes. Don't they look great?

NO! I DID NOT like it one bit. This is what I did when they came in the room. Then I told them, go, get in the car and drive!

Opening presents!

I had this one right side up, but it switched on me! Here I am with Uncle Jay and his cake.

Here is the whole party all dressed in blue!

Playing with moon sand after the party was over. I have never sat so still and quiet for such a long time. I love this stuff!

Here are a couple videos. Here I am saying my full name and where I live.

The second one is singing Happy Birthday to me!!

I had a wonderful birthday and am now a big 3 year old!!

Annual Dells Trip!

I got to take my now annual trip to the Wilderness in the Dells for my birthday. This year Amanda and Uncle Jay came too so it was even more fun than last year!!

Here I am all set to go. I climbed in the car while Mommy was loading stuff and didn't want to get out!

Here is where we ate supper. There were big mooose all over so I was pretty happy...and so was Daddy!

Here I am in the morning when Mommy woke up. I was OUT!

We went to Paul Bunyan for breakfast just like last year, and since Uncle Jay loves this place, it was perfect to go again.

With Amanda and Uncle Jay (and Uncle's bag of doughnuts)...

Here are some videos of me in the waterpark and playing one of the arcade games. I fell down on the tile around the water within the first hour we were in the waterpark so I was pretty sad and scared for awhile after that. After we got some supper and went to a different waterpark, I was back to having a blast, although I did remember to not run around the water (most of the time) after that.

I can't wait to go back next year!

Tomatoes!

We have had a great year for tomatoes, and the whole process is very exciting to me. I love going out to see if any of them are red, putting them in the bucket to bring inside and then visiting them everyday when they are inside. I really like the big tomatoes and the little green one I am holding in the 2nd picture. Oh, and I have learned the difference between cherry and roma tomatoes...although I say romat instead of roma no matter how many times Mommy or Daddy say it!

Fun Week!

This past week was a great week! On Thursday we had crazy hair day at school, and since I need a haircut, it was in perfect condition for pulling off crazy hair day. Daddy made my hair all crazy, and I was pretty proud of it (once I got to school and was more awake)...

I also got my own set of markers to try this week. They are wonderful!

This weekend has been a party weekend! Saturday I went to the farmers market and zoo with Mommy, Amanda and Uncle, and then I got to go to supper and play with Grandma and Grandpa H. Then we had a "party" for Daddy and Amanda's birthdays complete with cake and presents of course!

Here I am with my cookie from Amanda...

Enjoying it...

So happy to have a cookie!!

Today I get to have ANOTHER party with my Grandma R because it is her birthday too. I LOVE August, and I LOVE parties!!

The Wiggles!!

Today I got to go to the Wiggles Concert in Wisconsin Dells! What a fun day!

Here I am ready to go...

Sitting with Daddy before the show...(I really liked the seats a lot. They flipped up and down, which kept me thoroughly entertained while we were waiting for the show to begin)

Sitting with Mommy...

The big red car!

All the Wiggles (although with Brad instead of Jeff since Jeff had to have heart surgery and couldn't do the tour in the US). ..

Mommy's camera didn't work great for pictures during the concert, but you get an idea. Here is a video (unfortunately it is sideways) of me doing the actions to one of the songs...

Holiday Weekend-the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Happy 4th of July weekend!

One of my most favorite things...the bouncy house!!



"fishing"

Posing with the koala bear (one of the animals around the Monroe square)...

Uncle holding me up to the tall giraffe!

Hmmm, what happens if I put my fingers here?

OUCH!

Wrestling with Uncle before the fireworks...

Trying Daddy's sno-cone...my first taste. I think I'm hooked!

Getting a little nervous about the fireworks (before the meltdown began)...

Well, I had an overall great 4th of July weekend! Almost all of it was good; there was only one part that was bad and ugly...the fireworks! I had never been to fireworks before, and I didn't realize that they happen when it is dark outside. Mommy and Daddy didn't really think about the fact that I don't spend much (any) time outside after it is dark, and I was VERY scared. I freaked out and had to go to Grandma and Grandpa's car to listen to the Wiggles and calm down (thank you for parking in the park G&G)! Towards the end I was calming down, but the first half was not a fun time for me or Daddy (who I was clinging to and not letting go). The rest of my weekend was AWESOME! I had so much fun going to the park, looking at animals on the Monroe square and more.
