My first trip to the zoo

On saturday, Ken & Sarah and Lil' were supposed to come over so we could go for a hike in the park, but it was kind of rainy so we went to Como Zoo instead. It was lots of fun. It was fun looking at all the animals, but Lil and I had just as much fun watching our reflection in the glass of all the animals. Here we are looking at some fish & turtles.

Hanging out by the giraffes

I even took my first carousel ride. I thought it was fun at first, but the fun soon wore off and dad had to hold me the rest of the time.

Daddy dressed me, can you tell?

Can you tell that Daddy dressed me this morning? I am so excited! Daddy says that the Vikings are playing the Packers tonight! I don't like the Packers. Last night, I was in the nursery at church with some Packer fans. Look what they did to my eye! Now I REALLY don't like the Packers!

Sink or float?

I have an icky cold, so I've been taking lots of vapor baths lately. So while mom was gathering stuff for my bath this morning, I thought I would try out a little experiment. Does a new roll of toilet paper sink or does it float? Well, I couldnt' really tell because it pretty much took up the whole toilet and soaked up all the water like a sponge. But what I do know is that it will get you into trouble and moms don't think it's quite as much fun as me. It was still fun anyway.

Batter Up

I know I just told you that I love my lips and that I love to climb on things, but I also have another favorite. T-ball. Here's a look at my new favorite game. (sorry grandma and those of you with dial-up, this will take awhile)

I love my lips!

I love my whistling lips! I walk around with them all day long and sometimes I can even make them whistle. I have several different colored lips, but for now, I only know where my yellow ones are.


I also love to climb and my favorite spots are to climb on the couch, the love sac and my new favorite, to climb on the registers to look out the window.

The GREAT MN Get together!

Sorry it's been awhile since I've blogged. mom and dad have been too busy to take the time to help me out and they won't let me do it myself. We've been out and about lots lately. In the last few weeks grandma came and spent some time with me, we've had a blast at VBS, went to a Twins game, mom and dad went out with friends a couple of times and today we went to the State Fair. It was my first time and we had lots of fun. I even got a john deere hat grandpa at the cargil little hands farm! I loved seeing the animals, but like my parents, my favorite part was the food!

Munchin' on warm sweet martha's cookies (i had too much to eat to smile).

Mom had to try fried bacon on a stick! she said it was tasty, she didn't share that one with me. But they did share their pronto pup, chicago dog, corn on the cob, nitro ice cream, cheese curds, cookies & milk, and french fries with me!

We had lots of fun at the fair!

Squeaky clean!

Me, VERY proud of my mess!

Today during my back I had an accident in the tub, so my mom had to take me out, scrub it down, so that I could get scrubbed up again. While she was washing the dirty stuff she came back up to find my next adventure! I thought I'd play in the "dirt", which I later found out was flour. It was loads of fun and it made my clean pj's all white. Mom was thankful the flour container wasn't full. So it was in the tub one more time to get the flour out of my hair! Third time's a charm. It was new pj's, books, teeth brushing and bedtime after that.
