Summer Fun!

I got to go to the Jefferson County Fair last weekend. It was a blast! I went into at least 4 different barns of animals, and some I went back to for a second time...I especially liked the goats, but all of the animals were great!


Grandpa had to hold me for the horses. They were SOO tall!

Giving a goat a hug....

Trying to be a goat with Mommy. My attention was still focused on the goats.

Amama

Amama (Amanda for those of you who don't speak my language) is joining my family!!! I am very happy to have an Aunt so it will be interesting to see if I end up just calling her "Aunt" and not Aunt Amanda. Congratulations Uncle and Amama!!!

4th of July and a New Room!

I had a very fun 4th of July weekend, and I am on vacation all of this week so I am living the high life!!

Here I am with Daddy and the deer friend I made at Mackenzie Environmental Center. I loved visiting all the animals. I didn't want to leave so I tried crying and saying "animals" and pointing, but Mom and Dad made me go!

Daddy and I climbed a tower. I wasn't scared a bit, but Dad seemed a little nervous!

Saturday I got to play in my pool for the first time...or maybe I should say "on" my pool. I wouldn't sit down in the pool; I had to sit on the edge. Hey, would you like to sit around in wet pants??

Grandma and Grandpa came to stay overnight since Jacob is scared of fireworks, and Sun Prairie doesn't have any. It was great! I was WILD!

On the 4th of July, I got to go to Monroe to the park to play games and watch dancing. I loved the dancing. After they were done with one song, I would say "more".

Trying to throw bean bags. I would like one of these saddles at home.

Monday, we redecorated my room. I am getting more of a little boy's room instead of a blah baby's room. See the Sesame Street theme??

I hope you had a great 4th too!!

Catch Up!

I'm back! I have had a fun few weeks. I got a water table so that I can play in the water outside! It is great! I get almost as wet with it as I do in the bathtub.

Concentrating very hard...

Watching the NBA Finals with Dad...I love "ball"!

Father's Day with one of my Grandpas! I got to help open presents.

Playing with "Uncle"...I don't say the Jay part, just Uncle. Good thing I only have one!!

Going to look at the garden with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle and Great-Grandma!! I got a lot of attention!!

I got to go back to the fun sprinkler park. I was a little more confident...but I still stayed on the edges!

Watching the bucket drop on someone's head! BOOM!

Finally recovering from Memorial Day Weekend!

I had a great Memorial Day Weekend, but man was I busy! My sleep schedule is still a little off because of it (or maybe it's because I just like to stay up until 9pm...Mom's not sure and I'm not telling!)

I'll explain the weekend most recent to latest because that is how I always manage to put these pictures up here!

Monday I went to brat fest...note that my favorite part was NOT the brat. Also note that I thought brat fest meant brat (braaat) fest so I acted that part out pretty well (until I had the ice cream and then I was fine).

Sunday I went to a sprinkler park in Middleton after Great Uncle Mickey's 75th birthday party. I got REALLY hot at the party so Mom and Dad said I needed to cool off. Can you tell I had fun?

There was this one thing at the park that dumped a bucket of water on a person's head. I thought I better have Dad hold me because that bucket was really cool, but I didn't want it on MY head.

Here I am braver at the beginning...I hadn't seen that cool bucket yet!

At Great Uncle Mickey's party, taking a break...

Greeting Liam at the party. Liam is only one day younger than me! We will have fun in a year or two.

At home on Mom and Dad's bed on Friday after a trip to the zoo and downtown. Mom forgot to bring her camera downtown, but there was a fountain there that I have to go back to. IT WAS AWESOME. I was squealing and running and squealing some more. I was even happy when I got back home.

I wasn't so happy riding the carousel at the zoo though. I was fine riding it when I was 9 months old, but I didn't understand now why Dad had to wait outside of the ring...and I didn't want to ride one of those animals.

On the bench...still not having fun!

Only minor crying now, I enjoyed about 20 seconds total of this ride.

Thanks for stopping!

Being big and new adventures!

These pictures are a little out of order, but it is nice outside now and I want to go play so I decided not to fix them.

Here I am with my "new" rocking horse. Mom loves garage sales! This one even makes horse noises. I can rock so hard that I almost tip it over.


I got to go in a hotel room for the first time...can you tell I had fun exploring?

I went swimming in a big pool for the first time too. It tuckered me out!

Splashing!...

These sandals have a funny thing between my toe. I couldn't get used to that!

Doing my chores. I LOVE to sweep!

Helping Dad mow the lawn.

Trying to be just like Dad (with his vest on).

Can I go outside?

I've done my chores...

Can I go outside now??

Thank you! I love my new sandbox!!

war paint-aka what happens when I want to see if I can color my face too!

Grandma teaching me what not to do when I am around babies!
