Grandpa fun...

Today, Mommy and me went with Grandpa to Aunt Bri's softball games. It was pretty hot out. I liked playing in the dirt and driving my trucks all over the place. I'd drive on Grandpa's back and along the bleachers. I'd also sit there and flap his ears around too. That was pretty funny. We just hung out being boys!

Bye, Duck

This evening, I hung out with Grandpa and Grandma Geiss. Not sure if that's what I'll call them when I'm older, but it narrows it down for now. That's Mommy's dad and stepmom. We went to watch Aunt Brianna hit baseballs at batting practice or something like that. I got to help pick up all the balls and put them in the bucket too!! Afterwards, Grandpa and Grandma gave me some ice's aka otter pops. Me and Daddy eat those all the time and I'm just addicted to them. So naturally, I was very excited to have some! After Brianna was done with her practice, we dropped her off at home and Grandpa and Grandma took me for a walk at the park! This park is so cool!! There is a pond with lots of ducks and turtles and fishes!! I had fun looking at them all! The entire stroll, I was just chatting along, telling about everything I saw. Grandpa and Grandma thought it was pretty fun. After leaving the ducks, I was just jabbering on and out of nowhere, clear as day, I said Bye, Duck. I'm really working on those 2 word sentences. My favorite is still, No, Mine though.

After the park, they took me to McDonald's to grab some food. I'm in that stage again where I don't want to eat much. Mommy doesn't like this stage. She tells me often that she doesn't. But what I did like was playing dinosaurs with Grandpa on the table. That was fun. He'd try to feed the dinosaur my french fries and I wasn't having it! I'd get them before the dinosaur could! And did you know this McDonald's had a ball pit?! I was all over that! After spending a couple hours of alone time with Grandpa and Grandma, it was time to go back home. I was getting pretty tired. We got back, I helped Aunt Cari get my jammies and a clean diaper for me, and got ready for bed.

I kissed everyone goodnight, got my cup of water, and off to go to dreamland!!!

Planes, Trains and Automobiles...

Well really, just Planes and Automobiles.



Today me and Mommy flew to CA to visit Mommy's side of the family. It's been a long day, let me tell ya. It started off with me hanging out at Austin's while Mommy finished up some stuff before we had to leave. Daddy came and got me when he got home to take us to the airport. Going to the airport involved a long drive. Like 2 1/2 hours long. I did nap part of the way, like a hour of it. We left at about 12:15pm and got to the airport around 2:50pm ish. Our flight was at 4:50pm. We checked our stuff in and they let Daddy come through to help Mommy. He showed me all the planes out the big windows. I really like planes. Eventually, we had to get on the plane though. I was ok until Mommy tried to sit me down while she put the bag away. Wasn't happening. I was willing to sit on her lap though.





The plane was pretty full of lots of people. I loved looking out the window! I'd also say hi to everyone, played peek a boo with a few people, played with my trucks, and drank some juice. At one point I acted like I was a frog and kept jumping on Mommy's legs. The girls next to us thought it was pretty funny. Me too. Did I mention that I stayed awake the entire flight? Yea, I did. That included a stop in Phoenix, which was 3 hours in the air by then. And a little bit stopped picking up and dropping off some people. And over a hour in the air again. Mommy was quite surprised I didn't go to sleep. We got to California at 7:40pm (9:40pm Missouri time.. that's 9 1/2 hours of travelling Mommy said). I did pretty good on the plane. Only threw a fit once really where I was not being very nice to Mommy and screaming. But that was only for a few minutes and we were landed in CA like not even 10 minutes later. Otherwise, all was great!





So far I've seen Grandpa and Grandma and Aunt Cari and Uncle Chris and my new baby cousin Kayleigh. Mommy thinks I think she's a doll. She was sleeping and she's really little!





Now I am so tired, it's time to go to bed!!

Mommy tried to put a new post up last night, but for some reason it didn't post or even save. So now she gets to do it again.

Yesterday, we had to take Kiko to the vet. He has this scab thing on his face and it's really yucky. So we took him on base. In the car when we were almost there, Kiko threw up. Gross. Luckily, I'm not old enough to clean it up so Mommy had to do it. When we went into the office, I fell in love. What was it that stole my heart and first sight you ask? How about 5 little kittens in a big cage thing. I've never seen kittens before. Just big kitties. And I fell in love with them. I really wanted to pet them. Tried to figure out how to get their cage open even. Would stick my hand through the cage just to get my little finger on them. I was petting the mommy and was touching her ear and it would flicker. That was the funniest thing, ever. I want a kitty now. A kitten preferrably. So back to Kiko. They think he just had a yucky spider bite. And they put a chip in him too. I got to give him the treats though. The lady gave me the treats because I kept begging to give him the treats instead. It worked.

So now I just need to talk Mommy and Daddy into a kitty for me. What do you think?

Another visit

I had to go to the doctor again. This was an appointment with a specialist that we were referred to. Mommy put more about the doctor visit here so you could catch up on it. I wasn't too thrilled about it. I did good though. That's what the nurses kept saying. Mommy put up some pictures too.

There hasn't been a lot going on otherwise. Yesterday was Mommy and Daddy's anniversary so I went over to Laura's house to play with Aida and Adarah and Franky while Mommy and Daddy had some alone time. I had fun there. I was being my crazy goofball self. I like to jump off of their couchs and wrestle their dogs and just be crazy. Franky put a big pillow on the floor for me to jump onto also. Just so I didn't hurt myself. When Mommy and Daddy came back, I was still running around being crazy. And on the car ride home, I stayed awake the whole time. It was like almost a whole hour!! I did pass out once they put me in my bed though, and I slept til 10 this morning. Mommy was happy about that! Otherwise, things have been pretty boring around here!

Don't I just look thrilled??

Playing with the trains I took from the playroom to my room.

This was right before I threw it.

I decided I could give Mommy one smile.

See the shiny stuff in the 3 spots? That's to numb those spots.

Taking my blood pressure.

After we got home. Mommy put me on the couch with some milk and turned around and I did this. I even slept the last little bit in the car too.

And continued to do this. This was for 2 hours. Until the dogs decided to wake me up. Not cool.

Fountain?

Lately, we have gone to the pool a lot. I love the pool. I love the water. Period. What kid in his right mind doesn't? The other day when Mommy and me were at the pool with a couple friends, we were hanging out in the big pool. Since obviously I don't know how to swim, yet, Mommy was holding me. I figured out this fun game to play. It's called Splash Mommy in the face. I thought it was so funny to splash her. It was even funnier when she would in return splash me back. That is, until I'm laughing so much I inhale water and start coughing on it. That doesn't stop me from starting the game over and over though. I've also turned into this ladies man. It started a few days ago when I was playing with a ball in the pool. I toss it in the water. A little girl looks at me and I point to the ball. She gets the ball and then brings it to me. I do this a few more times, and so does she. The next day Mommy brings my own ball to the pool. I try the same game out. It works. Another girl brings me my ball and I smile at her. Along with flirting with all of the mommies too. What can I say, I am my daddy's son. Today, Daddy had another procedure done on his back so we had to go to the doctors with him. He gets to stay home with us again tomorrow. I have to go to the doctors on thursday with Mommy. She says we have a long drive ahead of us to get to the hospital we have to go to. Daddy has to be at work though, so he can't come with us. It'll be a long day. Oooohh! I also learned a new trick today!

How to drink out of my own personal water fountain. Cool, huh?

Showers..

Today we went to a baby shower for my girlfriend friend Emma's mom. She's going to have another girl in a few weeks. I had lots of fun there. There were lots of my friends there too. We played in Kaylie's room for awhile, and ate some yummy cake, and just ran around the place. And before we left, Mommy told me to give Emma a goodbye hug and I did, well a couple of them, and then ran back and kissed her too. Mommy didn't tell me to do that part, that was all my own genius thinking. It's not like it was the first time we kissed or anything. If you'd like to see proof of that, check this out. Pretty cute, huh? I know. I was so wiped out when we left that I slept the whole way home. My friend Caden rode with us to the party and on the way back he was wiped out too and slept also. But of course, once we dropped them off at home, I was wide awake and didn't nap the rest of the day. Today was cold. Well, not really cold, but colder then it has been. Mommy and Daddy took me to the waterpark again the other day. I love it there. This time we went in the big pool too. I used to occassionally get nervous in the big pool, but that day I loved it!!! I had so much fun in there with Mommy and Daddy! One of these days Mommy or Daddy will have the camera to take some pictures. I'm going to my friend Kay-lee's birthday party on saturday too. It's at another waterpark type place about a hr from us called Splash Down. I'm going to have so much fun! Oh yea, I've also got this new game that I play with Mommy and Daddy too. I started it was Daddy the other night and thought it was pretty funny. Here's what I do. Daddy was sitting on the floor and I went up behind him and just started pushing him with all my might trying to push him over. I ended up doing it and then Daddy would sit up and the game would continue like that. Tonight I did it to Mommy but added in the part where I help pull Mommy back up. As I would pull her I'd be saying pull. And as I pushed her down, I'd say push. I'm learning a lot more words lately. Mommy doesn't have any pictures right now, but she'll have some soon!! Goodnight!!
