Some Beautiful Spring Days!

It has pretty much been a beautiful Spring so far this year. We have had some very nice days. Mommy and I are taking advantage of them too. We have been to the park already a few times and have spent time outside at our house.

This is my John Deere ATV from Grandpa that he got me for my birthday. I love to pull it around using the dog leash (one of Daddy's tricks). I don't like to ride it as much as I like to pull it! Go figure!

I like to ride it some though.
My swing is up in our tree so I get to swing at home and at the park!

Just enjoying this lovely day and letting Mommy chase after me.

We had a picnic at the park, walked there and played on the playground.

I love the swings at the park!

Jackie's Choir Performance

We went to Jackie's Spring showchoir performance and got to watch her sing. She is 12 and in the sixth grade at Lapel Middle School. The performance was held at the high school. After she was done singing Daddy and I checked out the school gym.

Lunch & Shopping with Brody and Nichole

My mommy's friend Nichole came to town to have lunch with us and I got to see my friend Brody. It had been a while and he is getting so big...well we both are. He is 10 1/2 months old now and so cute! He has the best blue eyes like his mommy! We ate at Penn Station which is a great sub place and then went to Babies R' Us to do some shopping.

Great Auntie Carol Came to Town!

Great Auntie Carol came to town and went to church with us on Sunday. Then, we went to lunch at one of our favorites....Scotty's Brewhouse. It was yummy. I just love their fried dill pickle chips dipped in ranch dressing. Aunt Kari and Grammy joined us for lunch too.

I'm 16 Months Old!!!

Well, I turned 16 months old and Mommy and Daddy can hardly believe it! I love to dance, run and am now climbing on everything I can. I love to talk, read books and tell you what I am thinking...all in my own language of course! My hair continues to grow every day. Mommy can't wait until she can braid it and do other fun stuff with it. Although, I don't think I will like it much. I take a bath every night. I love to play at the park with other kids as well as the church nursery. My swing is up in our tree and I love to swing. Wagon rides are also a lot of fun now that it is nice outside. Running in the grass and feeling new things with my fingers is also great! I would rather pull my John Deere ATV than ride on it. I still eat pretty well, but there are some things I really don't care for...like peas. Blueberries are my favorite!! I go nuts every time I see the container of them and Mommy says "Do you want some blueberries?". I like to carry around my stuffed animals and baby dolls and I talk to them as well. I also really like playing with my cousin's Austin and Jackie (and Emma and Grant when I get to see them). I certainly have a sweet tooth and Daddy likes to share his popsicles with me. I hope you enjoy and continue to watch me grow on my blog.

Good times with Daddy!

Daddy sharing his popsicle with me! We both love popsicles!

Daddy and I sharing pizza! We both love pizza!
Here Daddy, it's your turn!

A Spring Walk and Some Special Visitors

It has been so nice outside lately that Mommy, Wrigley and I have been going on walks in the wagon every day in our neighborhood. We just love the smell of fresh air and blooming flowers!!

Here are some flowers we had coming up in our mulch. They were so pretty and a sure sign of Spring!

My mom's cousins from Grammy's side were in town so we met them for breakfast! I hadn't met them yet so it was great to finally see them. They live in Wisconsin and were home for Spring Break. Lisa, Nick and Taylor are their names. Nick is 14, Taylor 15 and he has his driver's permit. Mommy can't believe they are that old already. They are so nice and we had a great time visiting with them!

Grammy stopped by one day and gave me some hugs and kisses!

Grandpa stopped by and gave me some hugs and kisses too!

Saturday Lunch with Friends

We had lunch with some of Mommy's friends and got to see Hilary's growing baby bump! She is looking so great!! Of course, we ate at her favorite place....Don Pablo's for some mexican fiesta!!

Hilary, Emily and Amy

Aunt Susan and Austin were with us too!

15-month Check Up

All was well at my 15-month check up. I will actually be 16 months next week but oh well. Here are some of my metrics.

Weight: 23 lbs. 8 oz. (57th percentile)

Length: 31 1/4 inches (69th percentile)

Head: 45.1 cm (24th percentile)

So, I am tall, average weight and small head. Doc said everything is excellent!

Grandma's House

Aunt Jan, Cousin Grant and Cousin Emma flew home to Grandma Cindy's house over the weekend and we got to spend some time with them. I hadn't seen them since we were at their house in South Caroline last summer....and boy have I changed since then. It was so nice spending time with them, Aunt Luann, Cousin Jackie, Great Grandma Betty, Great Grandma Cookie, Grandma Cindy, Aunt Susie, Uncle Sid, Ayden, Owen, Tobie, Ryan, Sidney and Bella! We had so much fun.

Here are all of Grandma's grandkids together. Yay!! Finally, we were all together.

This picture didn't turn out very well, but it shows you how much fun I had playing with Grant!

Jackie, Grant and Emma are all teaching me how to play beautiful music on the piano. Believe me.....it was BEAUTIFUL!!!
Aunt Jan is teaching me how to put on make-up!Here I am with my Great Grandma's! I love them so much!! They give me lots of big kisses and hugs!
