Here I’m practicing my organizational skills. I need to keep track of all my important dates (like my upcoming birthday!) on my calendar.

Thanks for my colorful birdie calendar, Grandma!

We had a sunny day recently and those strawberries were thirsty! They needed water right away, and I was just the one to give it to them.

As you can see, I am very gentle when I water, and each strawberry plant gets individual attention. I can’t afford to have any drop in strawberry production this year – they’re just too yummy!

When Mommy is working in the kitchen, I like to help. I usually get to scoop flour between the mixing bowl and measuring cup, but today Daddy gave me a special task: lentils! These little black beans are very tricky to keep track of, and they go everywhere if you spill them. I’m getting pretty good at not spilling them now, but it took some practice.

Our trip started with going to the airport, and getting on an airplane!
![img_03088 img_03088](http://starkfamily.net/bensblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/img_03088-600x450.jpg)
I got to sit right next to Daddy! The plane ride was fun because I got to eat snacks for almost the entire time.

And watching the big fans go around and around was fun, too.
We went to visit Grandpa and Nanna, and when we went to lunch, we parked right next to a FIRE ENGINE!
The fireman that was there was very nice and let Daddy and me sit in the driver’s seat! Wow!

Later, we went to the park and I had fun on the swings…
![img_3093 img_3093](http://starkfamily.net/bensblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/img_3093-600x400.jpg)
…and then I spotted a garbage truck rumbling by. I persuaded Daddy to let me down from the swing so I could chase the truck. We were in luck as we caught up to José on his break, and he was nice enough to let me up into the cab with him. WOW!
![img_3102 img_3102](http://starkfamily.net/bensblog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/img_3102-400x600.jpg)
And then I got to sit with Grandpa in his RACE CAR! I can’t wait to see Grandpa driving his race car for real!

Later, at Aunt Danee and Uncle Tommy’s house, there was an Easter Egg hunt. “Cuz” Avery and I found all the eggs in no time flat. Check out Avery’s swell hat!

Ma got us some nice Easter baskets, and Aunt Danee and Aunt Carol got us bunnies to play with. Thanks Ma! And Aunt Danee and Aunt Carol are really Great Aunts.

Oh, and I got a new aunt this weekend, too. M&D said that while Grandma was looking after me, Uncle Ryan got married to Aunt Liz. If aunts give you stuff like Easter bunnies, I’m all for having as many aunts as I can!

My dump truck is decidedly multi-purpose. Not only can you move laundry with it, but it will hold the contents of most drawers in the house. Ask me how I know!

Ho hum. Yet another load of laundry to move. Do the laundry chores ever end??

Well, I guess as long as I can have some fun doing them, then it’s OK.
