Swimming Pool (or Super Bowl if you are Daddy)



I love to go to the swimming pool with my cousin's Abby and Catie. Today I actually got all the way in the water and was swimming like the big kids. Daddy thinks I am saying "superbowl" when I say "swimming pool"- silly Daddy!

Bathtime after a long, fun weekend






























I was the most talkative today. I had so much to say. I was talking in full sentences although my mom and dad couldn't figure them out. I said "I'm driving", "my daddy" and lots more. What a great weekend I had!

Family BBQ- part 1




Today all my cousins came over for a family BBQ. My cousins Ian & Reilly were here from Florida and cousin Fletcher was here from Tennessee. Here I am playing with Ian and Grandma Susie.

We all had so much fun playing on the swing set. Lorena pushed me in my swing and later I was driving at the wheel. I also got guacamole all over my face and pretty white outfit. I love avocados!

Here is a family photo of all of the grandmas, cousins and second cousins. I like playing with baby Fletcher. He is as big as I am and he is 10 months younger than me!

Sarah & Reed's Engagement Party





Tonight I went to my doula's engagement party out in Stillwater. They had ponies and llamas! I touched the pony. They also had a play ground built into the barn. I loved playing in the fine white sand. There were so many babies and bellies!!! Congratulations Sarah and Reed. You are a really fun couple.

Hanging out with Bapa



Tonight after the county fair I hung out with Mimi and Bapa. Bapa and I sang songs and tapped walnuts together. Then he gave me a piggy back ride in the kitchen so I could see all the pretty things up high. I slept really good that night.

Redwood County Fair- part 1





























I went to my first county fair today! I got to see all the farm animals that I have been singing and reading about for the first time in person!!! I loved the ducks, bunnies and goats. I was a bit scared of the stinky pigs. I was going to ride the Shetland ponies but I got too scared at the last minute. I also tried to ride the Merry-Go-Round but it also freaked me out. I did go fishing for a prize stuffed panada bear that I gave to Lula. She loved it.

Daddy's birthday dinner




Tonight we went out for dinner with Grandma Susie and Grandpa Charlie to celebrate Daddy's 35th birthday. We went to one of my favorite restaurants were I always get pizza. I started asking for pizza the minute we were seated. I also ate sweet potato chips, bread and beets! Yum! I walked down to visit the ceramic dogs that I love too. Going out to eat is so much fun!!!

More travels....




After leaving Cousin Jon's house, we traveled on to Galena, IL for a Davis family gathering. Friday night we went out for a fancy dinner to celebrate my Daddy & Auntie Katy's birthdays. I ate lots of bread and avocado. They even let me play on the piano after the restaurant cleared out. I didn't want to leave.

Hanging out at Jon's house
















I went to visit my second cousin Jon's house this week. It was a long drive to get there but it was worth it. He lives a big lake. We went to see a ski show (my cousin Jon drives for the team) and then the next day we went out on the boat. I had a great time. At night Ashley and Mitchell (my third cousins) came to visit. That might have been my favorite part of the visit. I loved playing with Ashley so much that I went to look for her the next morning after she left.

Little Tree Hugger





After my nap, we went to visit the fountains at the Rose Garden. I love to play with the water. I threw in lots of pebbles and even tried to climb in. I hugged the tree too. Playing outside is so much fun!

Master Garden Tour



Today I went to visit Grandma Susan's garden tour. I decided to wear my hat that makes me look like a little flower for the occasion. Later in the day, we visited the Rose Gardens with Lula. Life is good! You can view those pictures below in another post.
