Van Buren County Youth Fair

Mumma told me that if I take a good nap, then I could go to the fair.... So, I ran upstairs into my bed and did just that! It was a kewl fair (but not as kewl as the Centreville fair!) with rides, tractors, animals and games. We all had a great time. Dude...I even got to eat french fries for dinner....can you believe that!? Elliot had a good time just watching all the people and rides go around and around. I don't think he really like me wearing this fire fighters helmet though.... :) Oh, and if you can't tell in the pictures, yes our Mother dressed us the same (again). Although at least this time our shirts are pretty kewl....

Happy 1st Birthday Elliot!!!!

Can you believe that I am ONE!? I must be extra special because I got to have two birthday parties! Well, actually, I really don't care much for the birthday party hype, except for the cake. Dude....this stuff is awesome!!!! My brother was, eh hem.... "nice enough" to help me open some of my presents and show me how they work. Which really I guess was fine, since all I wanted to do was play with the empty box/bag. :)

I still only have 4 teeth (two on top and two on bottom) and weight almost 19 pounds. I will go for my one year check up in a few weeks so I will be sure to get you all my stats then. I am still just crawling around (although am quite good at it, if I do say)....don't even think about having my feet touch the ground! I babble all the time, particularly more so when I want someones' attention. :)

Rollin'..... In My 5.0

With the rag top down so my hair can blow.

Okay.... so I'm guessing that not many (if any) of you actually got those words, but think of the 80's one hit wonder Vanilla Ices' song Ice Ice Baby. Okay, now go back and re-read, or better yet, sing the words. :)

Me and Elliot had a good ole' time taking a car ride around the patio. Elliot thinks this ride is pretty sweet, but dude, he has no clue how this Cozy Coupe is compared to my sweet Jeep! I guess it's okay that he likes this lame Fred Flintsone car, that way he won't get any ideas about takin' my ride.

r(and yes, that's a band aid on Elliot's arm.... he had to have some blood work done.... boo hoo...)

Christmas in July

Yehp, that's what I said.... we had Christmas in July! This is our second year of having a Tomlinson family get together (in July instead of December) at Sand Point (on Saginaw Bay). My Grandpa JT and Grandma Mary came all the way from Arizona to see us. We also got to see my Great Grandma T and lots of Aunts, Uncles, and cousins. I LOVED playing in the sand and in the "big lake"! The water was just a bit on the well... freezing side, but that didn't stop me! Elliot had a blast digging and eating the sand and loved the water just as much as I did. (Click the collages to view a larger size.)
While we were there, we also had a first birthday party for Elliot. He was feeling just a bit under the weather, but still managed to smash up and eat his birthday cake. :)

Let's Get Ready to Rumble....

Round 1.....

Well, actually, I have been pretty good with Elliot touching and playing with my toys. Let's see how I am when he starts fighting back instead of just screaming and getting me in trouble with Mumma....

Happy 4th of July!!

So I totally stole this collage idea from my cuz, Wes. His Mumma did it on his blog, and I think it looks pretty kewl and Mumma likes it because it takes a lot less time to upload individual pictures! :) You can click on each collage and another window will open with a bigger picture for you to look at.

We had a great time at the lake this year. I took a GREAT nap on Saturday so I got to stay up and watch the fireworks. They were kewl, but pretty loud. Elliot, Wes, and I all had a great time splashing in the water. But I was the only kid big enough to go swimming in the lake. The water was freezing (or so Mumma thinks), but I did think so I played and played and played! This year our annual theme was "All-American" and was pretty laid back.... but we decided next year is going to be a big party, so stay tuned for 2010!
