Thrill Seeking

Woooohhhh! Roller coaster! Look what we did! We went to a 4th of July carnival and I rode on a super-fast, spinning around really high in the air roller coaster. It was awesome.

Fun in the Rain

It's sunny a lot here in the summer, but we get quite a few rainy days, too. Luckily, I like to watch TV and that's something you can do in any weather. And my trains and other toys, too. One rainy morning Mom helped me make this cool fort.

Here's another fun thing to do when it's raining. Vacuuming! It's so fun. My mom and I vacuum together to get the rugs extra clean.

Collecting

I have trains. I've told you before about how much I like trains, but I just wanted to tell you again. Here's a picture of ALL of my trains, and their friends, lined up carefully on the track - except for Lady, I just got that train yesterday. See the very end of the line, that's Harold the Helicopter.
I have Murdoch, Molly, Diesel 10, Stepney, Thomas (of course), Percy, James - well if you want to know, I can tell you about all of them, plus some other cars. My mom says I have a lot of engines. Yes. But I need lots lots engines. I can tell you about those, too.

I also like to go other places to play with trains, too. This is me at Creation Station. They used to be famous because they had a Henry and THREE Gordons. They don't have any Gordons anymore, but they still have Henry and a bunch of new trains, too.

Fun in the Sun

We've been having some nice sunny days here. Some hot, some not so hot. When it was really hot, we filled up my little pool and put the slide in it. It was awesome!

While I played in my pool, my dad pulled down branches so I could have some more sticks to throw into my pool.

We also took a little boat ride in the park. If you paddle far enough you get to a place where there are golf balls growing under the water. We got three! One had a picture of a tree on it. That's my favorite.

Enjoying

I like birthdays, Halloween, Christmas, Mother's Day, Father's Day, and now I know I like anniversary's too. Look what we got for my mom and dad's anniversary! Yummy! See that beautiful orange one? That's mine. I picked it out. It's called "Summer Crush". I still think about that cupcake. It was so so yummy.

Dad Day III

I know I'm behind. But you need to see our cool shirts. I told mom exactly what Dad wanted on his shirt this year. Pretty cool, huh? Then, we took him to the zoo as a special treat. What a lucky dad. We got to pet the stingrays and see the penguins and ride on the carousel.
Uncle Frogs was visiting, too. Here's some pictures of us sitting by and wading in the fountain at the park. And for those of you who were lucky enough to get an original Stanley creation for Father's Day, this picture will give you an idea of how I achieve those unique and special images.

Making friends

We had a LOT of people and kids at our house a little while ago. Don't ask me why. I ask that all the time and I rarely get a satisfactory answer. It was fun to have so many kids, but they kind of made a lot of noise. We had a good time playing at my house and we got to take a trip to Grant's Farm.









We saw lots of animals, including a very interesting Elephant Show. Have you ever seen an elephant pee and poop? We fed the goats, too.

We had a pic-nic at the park, too. Here's me and Henry enjoying our pic-nic in the dining wagon.
My new buddy Henry stayed around for a few extra days so we got to do some more fun stuff like go to the pool, Science Center, and The City Museum. It rained a lot. This is us goofing around at the Science Center. Look at the interesting things they have at the City Museum!



Henry was a lot of fun to hang out with - though he did bail on me when it was time to do the "Terror Train".

We had a good time in the ball cage.

Henry and I have a lot of shared interests.


Trains, balls, drinking milk.
