I Love the Lake!

I'm in Minnesota visiting Grandma and Grandpa and Foster the dog. I like when Grandma reads to me...

And Daddy took me to a cool park to teach me how to dig...

But I like digging best in the sand at the lake with my bucket and shovel.

Daddy squirting me with water in the pool wasn't so bad either.

My first time in the lake Mom made me wear this lifejacket.

Then she realized I was fearless, and would walk out in the lake chest deep, and chase floating snail shells where ever they floated.

I'm a baby fish!

Mommy's so proud.

Sticker Head

They always give me a sticker or two at the grocery store. Mom caught me giggling maniacally in the backseat in this pose on the way home.



As Mom and Dad always say, I am a very silly baby.

Face Painting

Rather than eating my prunes this morning, I decided to paint my face with them.

Needless to say, a bath shortly followed.

My Cousin Kyle

Today my cousin, Kyle, came over to visit. I showed him who's boss by not letting him sit in my chair...

But I did teach him how to play with my toys, and even did some pretty good sharing.

After all, I think we might share the cuteness gene.

4th of July

Mom, Dad and I went to the Huntington Beach 4th of July parade. Dad even decorated my stroller.

I had some lunch on the run...

Then got the best seat in the house.

After that wore Dad out, Mom and I watched the parade from the curb. I liked the fire trucks and the marching bands best.

And I LOVED this balloon, until it accidently flew away and I had a bit of a meltdown.

Pool Party

As you may have noticed, I can't seem to stay out of the pool. We had a weekend pool party over at my friend Kara's house. Here are Miles, Kara and I playing in her pool.

Auntie Kimmy got in to squirt us with water too. Fun!

Then they added the water slide, which may be the best invention EVER!

Here I am in action:

As Uncle Kevin says, all toys are better when you add the element of danger.

Pool Date with Miles

Miles came over today to play in my pool with me.

Mom kept trying to get us to both look at the camera at the same time, but there was a lot of splashing to be done, so this was the best she could get.

Miles liked using the whale as a punching bag. And Chewy liked licking me, maybe because he loves me, but mostly because he was thirsty. Observe:

We're buddies!
