Football Time

Mom and I have been brushing up on my football skills so that I can surprise Dad when he plays football with me. One day I even got to practice in Uncle Tyler's jersey so that I looked like a real football player.

I also decided to play football in my favorite box. Mom doesn't know why I like sitting in this box, she thinks it's maybe because Grandma Robin's kitty, Patch likes sitting in there and Patch and I are good friends now.

I also practiced my "tough guy" look like all the big kids do when they get their football pictures taken.

Dinner And A Show

I have found another way to get Mom rolling with laughter. I have a new cheesy smile that I often show during mealtime. The other night I had Mom and Grandma Robin crying their eyes out because they were laughing so hard. Dad saw my pictures and thought I am an awfully goofy child as well. It's much funnier in person, but here's a sneak-peek:

I was still in my goofy mood after bathtime too.

And I've started using my cheesy smile in public too. When Mom and Carissa took me to town I thought it was funny to flash my new smile around the store. Mom wonders where I learn this stuff from.

Homecoming

Last Friday I got to go watch all the fun homecoming stuff at school. In the morning I watched the boys' volleyball game with Mom, Grandma Ellen and Grandma Robin. Aunt Kelly even gave me this cool bandanna to wear so that everyone knew who I was cheering for.

Uncle Tyler did a good job in the volleyball game and even stuck around so Mom could get a picture of us afterward.

And I got to take a picture with Aunt Kelly too.

We took a break from the festivities at lunch but I kept my bandanna on because it made me look so tough.

In the afternoon I got to watch Aunt Kelly play football. Go Aunt Kelly!

We watched the parade in the afternoon and tried to watch some of the football game that night, but I was too tuckered out from all the excitement during the day. What a fun day!

My Birthday Party

It's already been a few weeks since my birthday, but Mom has been awfully slow with the blog so we finally got some pictures for you. Thank goodness Aunt Roz had her camera at my party because Mom's camera needed new batteries. Thanks Aunt Roz!

My super cool birthday cake!

Me and all my cousins, plus Mom and Aunt Carissa
