I'm so big...

Do you remember that I had a birthday? I am one now and listen up – I am big stuff! I can do way more things all on my own than you even realize. Can you believe that Mommy and Daddy thought I needed help walking around the sprinkler park today? They’d reach down to hold my hands and I’d threaten to bite them (by threaten I mean put my open mouth on their hands and rub my teeth around so they could feel how sharp they were). I mean, please, what do they think I am – like 11 months old or something? I’m a year old now and I can handle it on my own. I even made some “my size” friends (my size meaning I looked straight at them and we were face to face). It was great! I think one little girl might have even been shorter than me (hee hee!). Sissy was a big sissy at the sprinkler park today. She was “cold” and sitting on the bench most of the time while I was out carousing with my new friends. I was a splishin and a splashin – movin and a groovin!


Earlier today, we did something super fantastic! We went to Conner Prairie, but this time, Daddy was with us (woohoo!)! We went in and got our stickers, like usual, and we headed out toward the barn, like usual, but then….. Mommy and Daddy stopped by the gigantic balloon. They bought tickets and then we got on the balloon!!! After a bumpy start, we went up, up, up…. I felt just like Russell and Mr. Fredrickson! We were so high up that we could almost see our house! Thankfully, Mommy had me tucked in nice and close in the carrier. Daddy and Sissy looked a bit nervous and we all seemed a little relieved when the balloon bumped back onto the ground.

Hope you guys had a great day celebrating Mommy & Uncle Tim’s birthday. I don’t know exactly how old they are, but I’m pretty sure they are more than just one year old.

((hugs))

You can see Indianapolis if you look off at the horizon....




This is the fake balloon so that you can get a picture without your hair in your face (or a look of terror for those with a weak stomach). :)


Always looking for something to dress up in.

Learning how to be part of the militia for the war. OK, Sissy had no idea what she was doing, but she did like the marching part. :)



Keeping busy by trying to pull the sticker off of Daddy's shirt.

Pumping water. We are so lucky to have a faucet and hot water heater!

Square dancing. E1 didn't quite get it, but it was still fun.


In the pottery barn - ok, not THE Pottery Barn, but the building where they made the pots, bowls, ink wells and mugs. :)
