River training is essential for saving lives

I've heard there are some very important things to learn in order to go camping on the river with all of mommy and daddy's friends. I'm currently training and as long as you don't mind it a little shaken I think I've got it down.

Hey Hey Hey

Summatime!

Just hanging out on a Sunday afternoon at Kenny's house. I'm big enough for my own chair now. Or my own rock.

When I Grow Up...

I might just be a professor like Mommy. Here's a presentation of my first study..."The best ways to convince mommy and daddy that I should get a slide for my swingset in the backyard." The finding show that sliding down head first, and showing great slide comptency, is the best way. What do you think?

Time with Daddy

I helped Daddy plant our garden this year. I was the seed "pusher".

Too old for baths in the sink - no way!

I'm still not too big for the sling. I love being so close to Daddy, and he is teaching me how to do things like cook, talk to the neighbors, and water the yard - all from his hip!

Creative Play

Now that I know how "do" things, I have a lot of good ideas for where to play...here I decided that if the boys weren't going to let me on the bike, I'd just make myself at home on the steering wheel (yes, I put myself there all by myself!) - not sure that Wade liked this arrangement, but he went along with it. Daisy's bed is always a night hang-out spot...

But when that gets boring, I just head on over to the kennel. I make sure to close the door and keep us both inside...

But this is my latest favorite spot - the kiddy stroller. To be fair, I'll let my baby join in for the ride. Kenny showed me how to sit in it, the trouble is finding enough people to push me around! (too bad Daisy can't push)

Shoe Confusion

Wait a minute...is that my shoe over there? This one is so much cooler!

First Owieees

Now that I am a free-wheelin' kind of kid, I like to boogie around. Apparently, if you run too fast , you might get one of these... And then if Daisy knocks you over into the playground sand, you'll probably end up with one of these...

No problem...means I am an adventurer!

New Orleans!

Mama, Daddy, and I went to New Orleans for a visit. Mama had to work with some people at Tulane, so we had a lot of time to tour around town. Daddy took me on a tour of Mardi Gras World - this guy is creepy! I think I'd look great on a float. PAR-TAY in the French Quarter!

Uhh, don't know what to say about these wacky people. Just part of the NOLA charm!

As much as I loved Van Morrison's songs, I could hardly keep my eyes open. Daddy made sure to keep me dry while we danced.

Dancing at Jazzfest

I've got two beautiful brown eyed girls. Here I'm dancing with one while the other one watches.

A little rain isn't going to stop us.
