Mad Science

I am so pumped about science that after watching Sid the Science Kid, Daddy and me went right to the store to buy a pulley. Daddy hooked that puppy up to my new playset and I have been using it ever since. Elliot even likes to play with me. Good think I didn't ask Daddy to get me a lever (which I also learned about in the program). :)


I went to another Mad Science playgroup and this time we got to learn about chemical reactions and got to make our own silly puddy to take home.

A VERY Rare Event

A very rare event occurred just the other day. You have to look very closely at the picture and you will see...... a sleeping boy. Yehp, I've heard of this thing happening on very rare occasions and Mumma just happened to catch it on camera. :)

Tennis Lessons

I found a new sport.... tennis! Mumma had me visit a very nice lady named Kathy and she is teaching me how to play tennis. I am also taking a class at the Y. So far I am learning a lot, but don't expect any Jon McEnroe moves just yet. :)

Kalamazoo Klassic 1K Run

Mumma was so proud..... of herself!!! Yehp, that's right, she just couldn't stop talking about herself at MY race. :) She was just so excited because SHE actually finished the 1K kids race with me. Geez Mother... what's the big deal? I ran the race with of course Mumma and Mason and his Mumma. I ran the ENTIRE way (up two big hills too I might add) and finished the race in 8 minutes and 59 seconds. Mumma was a good sport but keeps saying something about having to get into shape if she wants to be able to keep up with me.

Running to the finish line













Mumma.... Super Genius

Now that I am crawling all over the place, I guess Mumma felt bad for me and my knees so she invented this hillbilly knee protector for me. Hey..... don't laugh, it works! :)

Our New Playset

We have the best Dad in the entire world.... not only did he buy us a new playset of our own, he worked all day in the rain to build it for us! Daddy did a GREAT job and did the entire thing all by himself. Well, actually, I helped a little.... (not really). But, I did a good QA/QC inspector as Daddy got the playset built. :) Thanks a million Daddy! You rock!!!! Oh, I should also give a shout out to Mumma since she was the one who sealed the entire playset.

He Works Hard for the Money....

....so hard for it honey.



Tumble Bus

I thought I would show you the tumble bus that I go on every Tuesday at school.... I'm sure you have heard me talk about it. I do all sorts of tumbling and gross motor skill development. Good thing Mumma works part time to pay for all of my activites! Thanks, Mumma...







Cruisin'


....low and slow.... (a quote from one of my favorite movies Cars). Me and Lily decided to go out cruisin' one sunny afternoon. But she's the kinda gal that doesn't want the low and slow ride....if she could talk, it would rather be, put the pedal to the metal and punch it!!! And, I had better do what she says (or rather wants!) cuz she's got about the same size as me but is almost 2 years younger. My BFF Mason got a John Deere tractor to drive so we can now have drag races in the cul de sac. :) Sweet, huh...

Battle Scar....


Welhp, I got my first official wound at daycare yesterday.... I was just minding my own business in the jumperoo, when all of a sudden some kid comes over and lays his chompers into me! WHAT!? ...dang...what did I do!? My teacher Miss Bridgette said I was pretty tough, but they were sure to give me lots of TLC.

Brothers


.....lame, Mother. Just lame.....

On the Move



Okay, so I'm a little behind the times on mobility, but Mumma said something about "not encouraging it this time".... Well, really I was on the move a while ago rolling all over the house - but now I'm figuring out a better way! It's still wwhhaay faster to roll than crawl, so I don't think I will give that up just yet. I guess Mumma better start picking up this house a little better now that I'm on the move. :)
