Swim Lessons & VIDEOS

October 14, 2010...Here I am at my swim lessons. The coolest thing is that my swim teacher used to be one of Mommy's campers when she was a day camp counselor at the Y. His name is Jim, and he's really nice. Mommy knew him when he was seven years old. Here I am with (L to R): Drew, Ben, and Lottie.

Go Blue & VIDEOS...

October 8-10, 2010...We took a plane to Michigan to go to Ann Arbor for the weekend! I haven't been on an airplane in a while, so I was super excited to fly. Reesey & I were really well-behaved on the plane. We got to spend the weekend with Nana, her friend, Mike, Lindsey, Uncle Dan, Uncle Michael, Auntie Lish, and T.J. & Michael. We spent most of Saturday tailgating. I had such a blast with my cousins. My favorite part of tailgating was playing sports and the "Victor's Walk" where I heard/saw the Michigan marching band, saw the cheerleaders, and the best part of all...seeing all the Michigan football players and the coaches. GO BLUE!!!!!!!!

Reesey couldn't fall asleep in his crib, so I snuggled him.

Check out this cool Michigan car in the hotel parking lot!

Here I am pre-tailgating with Nana,

October 6, 2010...Reesey & I went to Mason's birthday party tonight. It was at Pump It Up, and we had a blast! I especially liked all the inflatables, playing air hockey, and watching Mason open his presents. Happy Birthday, Mason!

Field Trip!

October 1, 2010...We had our first field trip of the year today. We went to the Natural Science Museum. I had a good time with my friends Drew, Will, and Cole and of course, little Reesey. Mommy didn't get many pictures. I saw turtles, fish, dinosaur skeletons, butterflies, turtles, snakes and other insects.

Being brave enough to quickly touch a bearded dragon!

This butterfly kept landing on my shorts! Will, Drew, me, Reesey...

Spending Time with Grandpa...

September 29, 2010...Grandpa's been really sick recently. We've been spending lots of time with him. Today he was feeling better, so we popped him some popcorn (his favorite). Grandpa & I are watching "Max & Ruby" together and eating our popcorn. I love you, Grandpa!

Reese's Party...

September 28, 2010...Reesey had a birthday party again today with his friends from playgroup. They were really cute. We all loved the Blue's Clues cupcakes!!!

Artist...

September 24, 2010...I am now really into coloring and drawing. I can draw football players. That is my favorite thing to draw. I put their numbers on their jerseys. I like to write my name and write other letters and some words. Look at the Max picture I'm coloring!!!

I'm Fifty-One Months Old!!!

September 23, 2010...I am now 4 and 1/4 years old! Mommy has already started on me about staying four forever...not turning five! I'm doing great! I am still as sweet as ever. I am going to school now four days a week. I have lots of friends in my class...and my teachers love me! I'm a good boy all the time at school. I'm also playing t-ball. This has been a blast for me. I love to go to my practices and games, and I'm totally focused before I go! My favorite shows right now are "Little Bear" (yes, back on that again) and "The Backyardigans," and I'm starting to watch "Thomas and Friends" too! I like to watch "Max & Ruby" at Grammy & Grandpa's house. My favorite books are Berenstain Bear books; Mater Saves Christmas (a "Cars" book); my Cars sticker album; The Littlest Matryoshka; Peasant Pig and the Terrible Dragon; Max & Ruby books; and Thomas the Tank Engine books. My favorite songs are "Don't Stop Me Now", "Polly Wolly Doodle" and "Real Gone." No new favorite foods...just been loving peaches and plums lately. I love playing with my cars from "Cars" and my football, hockey & baseball guys; playing with Reesey's new Thomas trains; playing with Reesey; helping Mommy; playing sports with Daddy when he is home from work; riding my bike; throwing the Vortex with Daddy; reading books with Mommy before nap/bedtime; going to Grammy & Grandpa's house; "getting spoiled" (yes, I did tell Mommy that); doing art projects; coloring; my bear, Valentine (and I still make sure there is no hair in his eyes so that he can see); looking at cars from "Cars" on the computer; going to school and seeing my friends; and being independent. I don't like the dark or being alone. Here are my monthly monkey pictures...
