Other happenings

Now that summer is finally here, we are spending copious amounts of time outside at the local parks, especially after dinner.


Also, you may remember that I am expecting a baby brother or sister soon - any day really. Here is a pic of mom's growing belly. I am not sure what to make of it other than it is hard for me to sit on her lap right now.

Apparently it is a big deal though, because Grandma & Grandpa Larson have come to stay with us for a few weeks. Here are Grandma and mommy.

I have gotten to spend some mega quality time with them. And Grandpa makes the most fun food! Here I am eating worm noodles! He also makes me roly-poly pasta and spider pancakes. All of my favorite bugs!!

As I mentioned, it is summer now, so clothes are optional, right? I am creating a chalk masterpiece in the backyard and you certainly don't need clothes on for that!

Showing Grandma my creation and also picking some peas from the garden. She showed me how to eat them right out of the pods. Delicious!

Reading with Grandpa before bed. I showed him how I can count in Spanish to 10 all by myself.

At the park again! (and they do make you wear clothes at the park these days, even in the pool)

Loving the whale pool that Auntie Elise and Uncle Josh got me. Here are Grandpa and me having a water fight. It was nearly 90 degrees yesterday!

Happy birthday dad!

Happy Birthday Daddy! we had a great time yesterday playing in the water at U Village and having chocolate milkshakes.

I especially liked the part where we blew out candles and ate cake. I think that was your favorite part too, right?

Yum, B&R ice cream cake!!



You are my hero, dad!

Sorry y'all, we've been busy

Here's a rundown of the past month.

Went to Bellingham/Lynden/Eliza Island for the long 4th of July weekend. Discovered raspberries out in Lynden at Grandpa Rob's house. Yum.

Played in the hose.

Rode a boat with dad and his friends Joe and Rick back from Eliza Island.

Looking quite nautical, don't you think?

In Bellingham at Grandma Connie's house, I played some sports. 1) Golf.

2) Ladder golf. I am pretty good at both.

Oh, and it was a surprise birthday party for Grandma. Happy Birthday!

Before the long weekend, I was packing up some gear. Check out this first generation head lamp.

The previous week I spent out at Hood Canal with mom's extended family. Can you believe the size of this crab?? Good thing he was "sleeping". I'll post some more pics from this vacation soon.


Auntie Elise, Uncle Josh, Grandpa Larson and Grandma Larson all stayed at our house after we got back from HC. It was super fun. Elise gave me ice cream :)

We had a party with some friends (Sammi and Alexis). It was a great night for messy popsicles.

Making a drum statement.

Ok - that was a quick and dirty snapshot of the past month. More soon.
