Up and down...

This was a week of ups and downs. Ups...there's lots of basketball to be watched and played. Daddy took me out in the driveway and we played ball for a bit. I showed my favorite neighbors my bounce pass. I also got a fresh hair cut. This place was pretty cool...a car just my size to sit in, a spiffy new do, and a few trips down the super cool slide. Alright! Downs...I've been sick all week, again. Mommy and I have been battling a plethora of illnesses lately. After 3 trips to the doctor, I'm still putting up a fight against a pretty nasty rash, ear infection, and some other not so fun symptoms. Hopefully things clear up soon.
I'll be back next week with some exciting news to share with you!

Outdoor fun...

Hi everyone! I hope you got outside to enjoy the beautiful sunshine like I did this week. I hardly had a moment to rest with all there was to do this week.
Rilei came to spend the day with me Monday. We had a fun time chasing each other around. Tuesday we visited Daddy at work and I got a new hat. I like it so much that I ask to put it on every morning when I wake up. Breakfast and a hat...I'm so silly! Every day this week I went to the park (or next door to my neighbor's "park") and played. I am turning into quite the experienced climber, and I love to run around the park, swing, teeter totter, and slide!This week also marked St Patty's Day. We all sported our green. Aren't Daddy and I the most handsome leprechauns you've ever seen?We have had a lot of basketball on the television this weekend. All the excitement inspired me to create my own game. I came up with it all by myself. I call it "yo-yo" which is more appropriately named than even I understand. I hold a small pack of tissues and pretend to give them to Daddy or Mommy. When they reach for them I pull it back and say "yo" and then I stick it out for them to take and say "yo" again. This continues til I either drop the tissues, they get too quick for me, or I start giggling so hard that I can't really say "yo" anymore. They think it's hilarious!

See you next week!

My slide...

This week the temperatures were so nice and mild that we got to spend more time outside. We set up my new slide and I took to it instantly! I've already logged more than 3 hours of slide time this week, and that doesn't count the fun trip that I had to the park with my buddy Emerson on the big slide (I hope to share pictures of that next week). Though my slide is smaller, I could hardly stop clapping each trip down because I was able to handle getting up the stairs and down the slide all by myself. I'm such a big boy! I am quite the climber and I like to run around the house and get into all kinds of mischief whenever possible. While mom was doing some cleaning in the kitchen, I decided to take off my pants and wear them like a hat. Where do I come up with this stuff?
We finished off the week with a fun lunch with Mimi, Lauren, and Emerson, the aforementioned trip to the park, and a lovely dinner with our friends Stefan & Christine...I was telling them (and showing them) all about the joys of having a little one. I look forward to meeting their girlie when she makes her appearance this summer!
I'll see you on my blog next week!
