Gardening

So, it turns out we do a lot of yard work at our house. Pretty much all weekend long every weekend in the spring time. Luckily, I like being outside and helping. Check it out!

Oh, I also wanted to show you my bia's doggie Millie's bows from her haircut. Aren't they silly? I loved playing with them.

Here I am learning how to use a spade to weed the garden. My mom taught me- she said I better start helping now that I'm almost one. Playing in the dirt was so cool! I loved the way it felt on my hands and feet.

I'm getting the hang of it...It goes in my mouth, right? Dirt is yummy.

Mommy's Birthday

I got all dressed up last night and we went out to dinner for my mommy's birthday. We had the best time! Daddy and I got mom a new camera bag for her new fancy camera we got her for her anniversary. She loved it.

Bia is here

Bia says its harder to take pictures of me now since I'm so mobile & squirmy... but don't worry we have lots to share. Here are a couple from one day when I got home from school.

Shopping in AC

We forgot to post this picture from shopping. I tried on this hat and loved it and the sunglasses too!

Atlantic City!!

On easter weekend, we didn't do the traditional egg basket fair, but we did go gambling in AC! Well, I didn't really gamble, but my Grandpa Steve hooked us up with a sweet room and a really nice dinner. We walked the board walk, shopped, and played a lot in the room. It was a really great time.
Here I am walking on the AC boardwalk:

Here's my dad at the intersection of Park Place and Boardwalk.

Grandpa Steve, Mimi and me. It was kinda COLD.

Me with my mom in the room. They even had a real crib for me that I really liked sleeping in.

Fun with my Best Friend Owen!

Wow! I have never had so much fun! On Saturday night when the rents went out for their anniversary, I went over to my best friend Owen's house and hung out with his parents. I gotta say, they are pretty cool. When mom and dad got home, they couldn't believe how crazy we were. Check out Owen's blog to see the evidence http://www.thegablehousefamily.blogspot.com/
Then, today we all went to the Leesburg Animal Farm. We saw tons of animals, went on a tractor ride, crawled in the grass (which is crazy by the way) and played on the playground. I hope Owen and I get to play again soon. He is so much fun!
Here we are with the dads pushing us on the spinning wheel:

I love the monkey bars. I am so strong that I almost didn't need help from my mom. Not that she was going to let me do it by myself... but I could have.

The slide was really fun too.

More monkey bars...

Crawling on the grass. Can you tell we were thinking it felt so weird?

Here we are checking out the fish and ducks:

Me with Dad on the tractor ride, which I LOVED.

This is what I thought of the turkeys:

Here we are with the dads near the porcupine cage.

Playing with Jack and a surprise...

Today is my handlers 6th anniversary! Can you believe it? Tonight they are going out for dinner without me (whatever!). I am going over to my friend Owen's house while they eat. Otherwise, the Stolley family has lots of spring yard work to do this weekend.
We went over to Jack Foster's house last weekend and played with him and his doggies and his parents and had dinner last weekend. It was so FUN! See pictures below.
As for the surprise... notice anything different about me????
