Heading back to the future

Check out what Daddy spotted on an outing a few weekends ago! I don't know what it is - I mean it's a car - but Daddy was pretty darn excited about it, so I think it was a pretty cool car. Maybe he'll get me one for my next birthday.

Walking on my hands

Or more specifically, I was running on my hands, but that's mostly Dad's fault. It happened like this - it was bed time and so instead of going upstairs for stories, I asked Mom to put socks and shoes on MY HANDS. Of course she did, but then she suggested that I go show Daddy. Daddy was not satisfied with my ability to just walk on my hands (in shoes and socks) and asked if I could RUN. So I tried, and then the next thing I knew I had fallen straight onto my face on the floor. Don't worry, I didn't let either of them touch my mouth and I refused all attempts to make it better - icecubes? And, it got better pretty fast, too.

Wearing Lightning McQueen underwear

That's right. I'm three years old! I'm a big boy and I can use the potty. Most of the time I use my little red potty with a bear on it, but if we're out and about, I'll use a regular potty, too.
I am particularly good at pooping. It's much more interesting to poop in a potty than in a diaper. For example, my very first poop in the potty looked "like a rainbow", except that it was brown. And just yesterday my poop looked like a "mean hippo" sitting in my potty.
I also have Buzz Lightyear underwear, Nemo, Mater, Mr. Incredible and Thomas underwear.

Feeding the fish

The big garden around here has some really big fish that you can feed if you buy little fish food pellets from the machine by the bridge. It's SO fun. Those fish are hungry!

There are also some pretend raccoons at the garden. I gave them each a nice hug.

Yeah. Hugs are nice.

Picking Pumpkins

Before my Gramma Cookie and Grandpa Mike went back home, we went out to the farm to pick some pumpkins. There were a LOT. But first, we picked some apples. We got pulled out to the apple trees by a real tractor. The apples were so tasty, I even ATE one.

Turning 3!

Birthday are the best - even if they're not mine because I LOVE CAKE! I took cupcakes to school, had cupcakes on the night before my birthday, and took cupcakes to the neighborhood block party that was the evening of my birthday. And I had TWO grammas and a grandpa visiting, too! Altogether, it was a pretty exciting weekend.
We made the cupcakes for school and I helped put the candy corn on - except for the ones that had HOLES in them - I ate those because they weren't nice enough for the cupcakes.
I got lots of fun presents and I even got to go ride on a train pulled by THE REAL Thomas the Tank Engine. OMG! It was so exciting.




I also rode on a smaller train while waiting to be pulled by the Number 1 Engine, but I declined the tattoo, bouncy houses, sing-a-long, and photo op with Sir Topham Hatt.
