Soaking it up...

With just a few precious days

of Summer left before we are back on

our "school year schedule",

it was time to hit the beach!

Auntie Ann invited us to her house,

and we invited papa and grandma lady along

(2 of my favorite peoples undivided attention

makes for a GREAT day!)

Papa and I found this abandoned boat,

it was SO cool!
Walking through the tidepools with
Grandma and Auntie Ann...

Trying VERY hard to splash Grandma Lady...

and of course what day would be complete

at the beach if I didnt find a rock or a stick

(today I found both...)

to add to my front porch collection!

I even worked my muscles pulling grandma on the tube.

What a PERFECT day!

Back to "normal"...

With my cousins and Aunties gone,

we have been getting back to

"normal" around here...

Mommy and I have been really

trying to soak up our last two weeks

before our crazy school year routine kicks in...

Spending lots of quality down time

together, and with grandma lady :)

I even learned to stick out my tongue,
which I thought I looked VERY cool doing.

And enjoyed my current favorite meal, SPAGHETTI.

Mommy and I have had one amazing summer together,

we have one more week to live it up,

and I think thats just what we will do!

The fun hasn't stopped...

Playing "bakery" in the sand....

Eating ice cream...

relaxing all together...

(with popsicles of course...)

Playing with Grandma Joyce at the lake...

I mean BOTH Grandma Joyces' .....

And a trip in the kayak...

With all the fun things my cousins and I

have gotten to do the past week,

I don't know what I will do with him gone!!!

Family fun at the lake!

Family Fun... Part 1

Summertime = family time...

and for the last few days both of my aunties,

plus Weston and Merrick have been here!!!

Weston and I are playing MUCH

better together this time so far...

Our mommies are just hoping the trend will continue...

We even got our own private dining table
and Grandma Lady's house last night!

After dinner, Auntie Emily came over

and had a slumber party with mommy and I!

Then, it was off to the county fair!

Mommy is still shocked at what a fearless

boy I am when it comes to just about everything...

and it was SO nice to have a friend to ride with!

I am going to have a nap, then it is on to even more

family stuff the next few days!

I will be sure to post more pictures of all of our fun!

Growing up WAY too fast...

Becoming much more outgoing

with strangers... :)

Dressing myself (quite nicely I may add...)
and my first TATTOO!!!

Mommy thinks I am growing up WAY too fast...

A Day at the Farm...

I went with Grandma Lady

out to "the farm" this morning...

Work, work, work...

When I had enough of the child labor,
I snuck up on Grandma
with my "squirt gum"and got her good!
(Then she got me right back!)

I think I like it at the farm!

How do you eat an oreo??
