Beach Party!

I finally got Mom and Dad to the beach this weekend. It's like pulling teeth, I swear! I was over the moon about the whole thing, really.


Sliding glass doors, have you ever heard of such a thing? They're fantastic!


Woah! The wind! Quick Mom, I need pants!



Dad and I are watching the seagulls float across the water. So peaceful.


Oh man, stay away from that yellow thing they put in the water. Mom and Dad think it's funny that I fall for this bit over and over again (it's not that I don't get the the joke, 'cause I get it - reality is, I like lemons!).


Alas, the beach: Sand between my toes, surf rolling in, trucks and buckets. Paradise!


Is that a crab?


I'm getting the hang of the shovel.


Here is Mom trying to convince me that I will like the water. Sorry Uncle Rhett, but not yet. Maybe in June when I visit the warm, still bath tub that is the Gulf of Mexico.


Dad and I at the Marina. Wish I had a boat like the one in back!


Here's one of Mom's favorite photos. Such a sweet little boy, don't you think?



Finally, here is my public service announcement. Tuesday, April 29 is Free Cone Day 2008 at Ben & Jerry's across the world. Go to your local Ben & Jerry's scoop shop for unlimited free ice cream! They usually scale down the choices but you get a single scoop on a sugar cone per person each time you go through the line and they let you go through the line as many times as you want. You know where I'll be on Tuesday!

Four posts were put up at the same time, so be sure to look at them all! Later...

Mad Hatter

Mom wanted me to model my matching hat and shirt that Oma gave me for Easter. I was cool with the classic car shirt. The hat was a different story. It starts off fine, but...


Hey, what is this thing?


Why me?


I mean it guys - I don't like it. No, no, no, no, no.


I think this look works for Dad. It's nerd-chic!

A Walk in the Park

Mason and Wade came over to play at my park. I showed them all of my "jeeps." (Beep, beep). In the photo above, Wade is on the left filling the tank with gas and Mason is on the right getting into the driver's seat.

The photo below is Mason getting into the cool red car.


Me and my jeep. Who needs the sheep?


Uncle Brian has some questionable driving skills. Hope cousin Mason has his seat belt on!


Here's the whole Little gang!



Like I said, look at Mason holding in for dear life. After the park, I took them to my favorite burger- er- grilled cheese joint. It was a great Sunday afternoon.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...

Guber-mop!
(btw, I am so named because Dad thinks I get my cleaning prowess from Mom's side of the family).


Mom looked like she needed a little assistance mopping the floors. And I do love to help!


Would you just look at that shine! Incredible!


A long day of mopping calls for some serious sitting in front of the TV watching Thomas DVDs. You need to have a balance with work and play and rest. I'm into the zen of life.

Spring Forward!

Spring is back and so am I. The end of winter was slow going. Lots of rain and playing indoors. Mom and Dad forgot about the camera, and we were reading and playing puzzles inside, so not so much to take photos of, anyway.

Everything is coming back in bloom (especially the pollen -- achoo).

Anyway, the drought is over, and I'm ready to get outside.

To the rose garden we go . . .


Sushi picnics rock!


I'm a-mazed by this place!




Goldfish get to swim in there, why can't I?



Quick, help! My finger is stuck!

Just kidding!


My idol, the fountain kid...


Hooray for flowers!


Mom and Dad are always getting in my way!




Look, it's my own little azalea festival!



I sure do love picnics in the park.



And of course, I am again frequenting my neighborhood park!












In fact, I have invited cousins Mason and Wade to check out my park today. Gotta go play! See you later!
