I'm a Walker

It's official, I'm a walker now. I try to walk everywhere I can. Here's a picture of me walking with my brother.

Rambling Roadtrip

This past week, I participated in our church's vacation bible school. The theme was "Rambling Roadtrip." We went from Washington, D.C., to Chicago, to Yellowstone National Park and ended up at Knott's Berry Farm in California. It was lots of fun and we learned about God at each stop on our trip. (Mommy watched Cameron and the other babies in the nursery.)



On Thursday night, we had a program for all of our parents. Me and all of the other kids got up and sang our two songs that we had been practicing all week. I'm in the lower left hand corner in the green shirt.



Here's a picture of me singing and watching Miss Marci. She told us what to do while we were singing.



Here I am at the end of the program. Afterwards, we picked up the crafts I made, had some lemonade and popsicles, and went home.

Love,
Ben

Happy Father's Day, Darth Tater

Here is a picture of me and Ben with Darth Tater. Darth Tater was part of Daddy's fathers day present. It's really a Mr. Potatohead dressed up like Darth Vader, so don't be scared.

Buzz Lightyear Meets the Elmo Sprinkler

It was pretty warm here in Maple Grove, Minnesota, where we live, so we decided to set up the Elmo sprinkler and run through it. I got to wear my new Buzz Lightyear swim trunks and surf shirt.



Here is a picture of me in my new swim outfit with my baby brother.

Crazy About Cookbooks

This afternoon, I was being silly and pulling cookbooks off of the shelf. Daddy took these funny pictures of me.

Three Men in White and Gray

Today,all of us guys dressed the same. We all had white t-shirts on and grey shorts. We all went to Mendard's and the gas station and the beer store together (Ben and I got lollipops!). Isn't that funny?

Taking Pictures of Taking Pictures

Daddy and I were out early this morning looking at our lillies that had recently bloomed when we decided to take a picture of our new garden on the side of the house. Daddy took this silly picture of me taking a picture of one of the flowers.



In case you were wondering, here's a picture of one of the lillies.

My First Baseball Game

This was the scene of my first baseball game ever. We saw the Twins take on the San Diego Padres.



Prior to the game, we had a picnic outside with lots of people that my Daddy works with. This is a picture of my brother, Ben. To the left, you can see my feet and my Mommy's feet. I was practicing walking all around the picnic area. They had door prizes at the picnic too. We won tickets to a game in September and an autographed baseball. I ate a hot dog and some watermelon and lots of cookies.



Here's a picture of me and Mommy at the game. Like my brother used to do, I ate my way through the game.



Here's a picture of my brother inside the Metrodome. I think he was actually watching the game.



Anyhow, we had a fun time. I hope to go to another game really soon.

PS: I wish I could tell you who won, but we left in the 5th inning and the game is now in the 10th inning!

Countertops!

It took a while, but we finally got our new kitchen countertops. You might recall that these are the old ones.



Then, to make room for the new countertops, we had to have a man remove the bottom row of tile from the backsplash. It was messy.



Then some other guys came and put our new counters in. Aren't they nice?



And finally today, they came and put our backsplash in. With the new sink and faucet, the kitchen projects are done. For now.

In Algona For Uncle Doug's Wedding Shower

Many of you might have been wondering where Ben and I were during the past week. Well, we went down to Algona with our Mommy to get ready for Uncle Doug's wedding shower.



On the weekend, after the shower, we all had a big dinner and went to a fun park. I had a lollipop there.



I enjoyed eating it while Grandpa Walter and I watched Ben on the play toys.



Here I am pointing up to where Ben is. He was really high up there.



See him? He was on the highest spot imaginable.



After the park, we went to Dairy Queen and then Uncle Jayson and Daddy and me and Ben went back to the farm to go to sleep. This was a picture of the sun a few hours before it set.

Cleaning Up The Kitchen

We got new countertops in our kitchen on Friday (we'll post some pictures when they're completely done -- we're waiting on a backsplash and some faucet parts), which was two days after we had a row of tile removed where the countertops will go. We had lots to clean up on Saturday, so I did my share by wiping the window sill.



Today, we still had stuff to clean up around the house, so I worked on the kitchen floor.



Ben and I rewarded ourselves for our hard work by sharing a popsicle.

My Hair Cut

We went to Kid's Hair and got my hair cut tonight. This is a picture of me showing how surprised I was that the lady cut soooo much hair off. Mommy and Daddy really need to take me more regularly.
