Scam artist

Sometimes mommy and daddy give me money for cleaning. So logic dictates that if I make the playroom messy I can earn some money cleaning it up. Unfortunately my parents foiled my evil plan.

Sprinkler time

Its summer time right? This week we had 80 degree weather, water guns, bathing suits, sunscreen, and SPRINKLERS! I love the sprinkler. Even if the water is cold. And even if it makes the slide slippery and I bash my legs every time I land.

School friends

Goofing off with my school friends at Ryan's birthday party.

Rainy day fun

Most of the time when its cold and rainy I like to stay inside and watch movies. However, Saturday we did the opposite. We went to the park where we splashed in puddles, fought with pine cones, and took a tram ride. Cole was so cold he hid under a blanket during the ride, but I loved it.

Baseball practice for me too

I forgot to tell you all that when Cole goes to baseball I get go too. I run the bases, throw rocks, drink juice, eat snacks, and get sunburned. Its pretty fun.

Angry Bird Master

Thanks mom for taking the time to put together supplies for food and animal art collages.Your idea was pretty good, but mine was better... drawing Angry Birds!

Baseball class

I'm learning about baseball at the Ohio State Buckeye school. Its not like a baseball team, but I do have two coaches and we are practicing baseball. I'm learning a lot and getting plenty of practice before I start on another team.

Team meeting...

Practicing running the bases...

Playing baseball with mom and dad after practice... Good hit, huh?

Happy Birthday Ewan!

Ewan just turned three. We had a great time at his animal party. I played with all of his toys, I went up and down his stairs, I ate yummy cake and brought him a present. I'm turning three next and I hope my party is just as fun!

Here's me trying to pin the nose on the lion.

Cake!

Here are most of the kids (Cole was upstairs). Happy Birthday Ewan!

Handyman

I loves me a big hammer!

Chef Cole

This morning while mommy, daddy, and Luke slept I cooked breakfast. I made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for me, daddy, and Luke and I made mommy a bowl of cereal. I set the table, I gave everyone utensils and glasses of water. I even cleaned up my cooking mess. Mommy and daddy were absolutely amazed by me. They were especially impressed to hear that I made my own ladder out of a kitchen chair, bathroom stool, and a pillow so that I could reach the cereal box on top of the refrigerator. I told mommy that if she ever needs a break I'd be happy to do the cooking.

Classic tastes

Right now I can't get enough of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, The Wizard of Oz, and Donald Duck versus the Chipmunks cartoons from the 1950s. Mommy likes those too.

Little helper

I love helping! Laundry, cooking, vacuuming, sweeping, washing, feeding the dog... I love it all. Except maybe picking up my toys. That's no fun.

Daddy bath time

When it comes to bath time, mom goes for quantity and dad goes for quality. Good job dad!

Egg hunt

So here is how Easter morning works.

1) Cole wakes me up to show me my Easter basket.

2) Mommy, Grandma, and Cole show me how to hunt for Easter eggs.

3) I open each egg as I find it to check for chocolates and eat them.
4) I devour Easter basket candies on the kitchen floor.
During the rest of the weekend I visited with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Kenny, and lots of cousins. Grandma took us swimming at her pool. I watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory several times. I colored pictures, played with play dough, and blew bubbles. I bragged about my potty skills. I also bonked my head on the dinner table, had my face scraped up pretty bad by a bunny ring, and fell off the couch landing head first in Grandma's big tree decoration. I guess band aids and ice also go well with Easter weekend.
