New Developments In my World...

Lately I've decided to take some initiative and learn some new things, and perhaps try new things, you know, whatever came my way.

Well, I learned a new animal called a 'howl, it says whoooo, hoooo... I think its pretty awesome.

I also decided to start calling Dad's mom by her name, you know, 'Gamma'... But there seems to be an awful lot of ladies with that name, it just so happens that every one of my friends have a 'Gamma', go figure. I have no clue how we'll keep them apart. Luckily mom's mom is Oma... Which I am taking a hiatus from saying, because I can.

Earlier this week my tummy started to turn once Mommy had me tucked in bed, then out of nowhere my tuna casserole showed up.... Not a pretty sight. But mom took the lead and got me cleaned up. After a long night of more stuff showing up out of nowhere I was starting to feel better. I did, however, discover this thing called the spare bedroom. Mommy and I slept there so she could take care of me and to contain my cooties... Well, this spare bedroom has a bed, a huge bed, and I. Loved. It.... So the next night I woke mommy up at 3am and said I was done in my crib... And she fell for it, so we cuddled for one more night. I had a game plan for tonight, and well, it sort of worked. I got mom to give me another chance in the big bed.... But this time she said she wasn't going to stay with me. I will admit that I was a little hesitant at first, but after yelling downstairs for a while I realized she wasn't going to leave me alone in the house, so I fell fast asleep... Hopefully they get the hint and move this bed into my room-its slightly more manly.

This week started off rocky but has turned around quite nicely!

Just kidding, there's more!

On Friday we headed north of the border! We got to hang out with mom's friends as they started to celebrate the pending nuptials of Jill and Kelwyn.
And guess what, the party was on a FARM! It doesn't get much better than that. I got to see my buddy Cameron, he came to mom and dad's wedding festivities too. There was also a puppy, who was a little less scary than Hank.

The Grand Voyage West...

Ok, so we are finally in Lynden, Washington! After a slight delay, which is a long story, but let's just say that a gate manager position may be opening up for US Airlines.... In case anyone is interested.

The trip went great. Mom and Dad let me eat a lot of lollipops... I got a bit tired of them as you can see in one of the pictures.

I also will post a picture of my new friend from Omaha, Kayse. She let me sit by her at the restaurant :-)

I would also like to give a shout out to the people who leave Bibles in the hotel... I caught up on my lessons.

I'll have many more pictures to come!

Blast From the Past

Two weekends ago Oma and Opa came to visit me! I had so much fun. We went to the Pizza Ranch, which is Opas fave! Do you blame him? Where else can you get pizza, chicken, potatoes, salad and ice cream?

We also went to the zoo... I'll post random things, I am posting via an app mom got, so let's see how this works out!

If you see the picture of the giraffe, Opa is trying to lure it over with a cracker... Leave it to Opa! Mom says he used to do that when she was little, and it worked! Apparently American giraffes are better behaved than Canadian giraffes :-)

Watch Out Washington....

I am packed and ready to invade Aunty Karen & Uncle Les' house for the weekend! I am excited to see Aunty Emily and Hank! I also get to head north to Mom's home and native land to visit a bunch of my non biological aunts and uncles!!

We are currently enroute to Omaha for the night. We're almost there and are stopping for some grub with friends of Daddy's!

I'll keep you posted.

Hi, my name is ....

It's been a while since I've blogged- once again, the story of my life!

 

I've been busy this summer- mostly hanging out with my buddies at daycare.

 

This weekend Oma & Opa have come to visit!  They've only been here a short while but we've been having loads of fun!

 

 

It was my turn to pester Opa!

Opa pushed me on the swing...

....and it was awesome!!!

 

Can't wait to see what else this weekend has in store for me!

 

 



John Denver Says It Best...

.......Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
It's early to rise, early in the sack
I thank God I'm a country boy

Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God I'm a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife....

ok, so this song might not totally apply to my life...but a boy can dream!

I got to hang out at the VanKekerix farm yesterday, it was great! They have SO much COOL stuff!

Dad, Tyke, and I snooping around

Tacey and I are making plans to take those bikes out for a ride

Here kitty, kitty....where did you go?

...ahhh clever

oh, cool, more cows!

I liked to MOOOOO at them really loud...but they didn't like it too much

What ya chasin' over there, Tace?

MORE Kitties!!

You want me to touch the horse? Seriously?

Ok, I'll think about it...

Going for it! Horses are hairy...weird.

Kaydrian, are you gonna give me a ride or what?

Just a second...can't seem to get this going! (Just for the record, I was able to get this going...and if mom and dad are reading this, I turn 2 in October...and I want one of these)

Tacey decided she would just drive her own truck :)

Dad, can I have a horse too?  He can sleep in the spare room, and I'll feed him grass and the food I don't eat...pretty please??



Maybe I won't Move Out...

Mom may have won me over...check out what she found me today!

Yes, people, these are my top 5 favorite animals!

There's a horse, a sheep, a BUNNY :), a cow, and a ducky!

How cool...I love playing with this little guys.



Why I'm Moving Out:

I'm revoking all of her blogging priviledges!

I'm also scarred for life...Mom, I'm going to need some EAP!



Happy Holidays!

Last week I got to celebrate two different countries: Canada & the USA! How lucky am I!

I made sure to use the Canadian soccer ball on July 1!

Then for the 4th, we went up to Sioux Falls to hang out with Adalyn (and of course her parents and some others too :))

Anyone want to join us?  TJ says we need a chaperone.

It was so stinking hot out...so they let me put the sprinkler out!

Tacey and I got to hang out that night too!

This is my new best bud, Molly.  I will admit, I was pretty scared of her at the beginning of the evening...lets face it, she's like 7x's the size of Fran-dog!  That's a lot of dog!

Here's another new buddy- Cody.  Kelly brought my new obsession: Puffcorn...and Cody let me eat it with him!

Puffcorn...not really my friend anymore.  I got sick in the middle of the night.  Mom said it was probably a mix of puffcorn and the heat- should I have told her about the grass I ate?

And I wonder why I got a tummy ache... ;)

Aunty Emily was also here this week- check out her blog to see the week's events!

Out & About...time to catch up!

Sorry again for my lack of blogging, I've been too busy! And the computer has been a pain in the butt...so now I have a moment, I will catch up on the going ons....

Aunty Rachel taught me how to smell these Scentsy things! This is one of my favorite pastimes!

 I now know how to turn on the computer...Mom used to have to help me out with that one ;)

I was reading one of my books to Great Grandpa!  Teaching him his animals...I am an expert you know!

Oma sent us presents for Canada Day!

Kayla had fun with my hair at daycare :)

Hmmm...loving the beach!

Sunscreen is very important...Mom makes me put on 50SPF...but her and dad only wear 15...I think they need a 2nd coat!

I didn't want dad to burn his toes!

 

Love you dad!

Whats going on over there? Does some cute brunette need saving? I'm ON MY WAY!

Getting into trouble with Fran!

I woke up with this scratch on my cheek.  Mom asked who did that to me...I told her it was a bunny...I think she bought it.  I don't need her knowing I get out of my crib at night to go hang out with the boys.
