A Day at the Park!

Mommy and I met some of my buddies at Pullen Park yesterday. We rode the choo-choo train and the carousel, played on the playground, fed the ducks and had a picnic lunch. It was so much fun! And then it happened... I fell and scratched up my face above and below my left eye, but Mommy treated it and I began to fill much better after she gave me chocolate milk and oreos! It was a real "ummer" as I like to say... We had been having the best time and I even rode on a horse that went up and down all by myself on the carousel.

Mommy went to a Consignment Sale and all she brought me back was this silly hat...

So honestly, what do y'all think of my new winter hat? I can't decide... Mommy absolutely loves it, she thinks it's, "So Cute!" Thanks Mrs. Courtney for helping her pick it out... She thinks you're the best Consignment Shopping Pal around! Unfortunately for Daddy, Mommy found lots of other things at the consignment sale... She told Daddy that she saved him money by shopping at the consignment sale, but I don't know if he believes her!!!

Hodge Podge...

Hi everyone! I've been having lots of fun lately... Monday I got to play with my friend Jackson while Mommy went to the dentist. He has a HUGE Thomas the Train table that we got to play with and we also had fun wrestling around... Thanks to our Daddies for teaching us how to wrestle! On Tuesday Mommy started a new Bible study so I got to go, too! A lot of my buddies from my class last year are with me again this year so it was fun to play with them again! Yesterday Mommy took me to a big park and my friend Avery and her Mommy came along, too! We had fun swinging in the swings and sliding down the slides. I love playing outside. My Grandma also sent me this neat tractor that I can ride around the house. It's battery operated, so I don't even have to push it. Cool, huh??? Thanks Grandma! I've also been really into coloring with markers, thank goodness for the washable ones because I can make quite a mess!!! Do you know what else makes a mess??? Mashed potatoes...Mommy made some for dinner and they were yummy!!!

My newest word is "ummer" for bummer. I've also started saying Mommy-ommy-ommy-ommy-ommy, Daddy-addy-addy-addy-addy, Nana-ana-ana-ana-ana and Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa (for Pops). Mommy says back to me Nate-watey-watey-watey-watey. It's pretty funny!!! Also this week when some of my Mommy's girlfriends were over, I decided to show off!!! I started belly-flopping on the carpet over and over again and eventually moved on to the hardwoods. I was laughing so hard and everyone thought I was so funny. Mommy got out the video camera to record, but of course the battery was dead... Oh, well...

Beach Trip 2007!!!

Last week Mommy, Daddy and I went to the Outer Banks with some friends. We had an absolute blast and the weather was amazing!!! We spent most of our time out on the beach playing in the sand and the waves. I absolutely love the ocean and my friend Emily and me loved laughing and jumping in the waves together!!! The Daddies dug a big hole in the sand and us kids had so much fun playing in it. I even treated the sides of the hole like a slide and slid down them head first on my belly. Lets just say that I was covered in sand head to toe!!! There was also a pool and hot tub back at our house... Now most of you probably remember that I haven't been the biggest fan of swimming pools this summer, but my friend Madeline let me borrow her swimmies and I had so much fun. Mommy said she thought I liked the swimmies because it gave me some independence in the water... I don't know, I just thought they were fun!!! My new words for the week were "Emmy" for my friend Emily and "Tee-Tee" for Emmy's Mommy, Mrs. Christy. Mommy said if I said Emmy one time last week, I said it a million times!!! Mommy also taught me to make a fishy face... It's pretty cute!!!
