We went to the Thomasson’s for dinner and I had this yummy piece of watermelon.

Mmmmm…

First, I had to practice at home with my sleeping bag for a few nights.  After that, I was ready!

Then it was over to Avery’s on the appointed evening.  After dinner, we pitched the tent…

…and moved in!

We stayed up late and read stories by flashlight!  Awesome!

I’ve started flipping though books all by myself, just like M&D and brudder do.  It’s all the rage, you know.

This funny looking blue guy with wheels is everywhere in these books!

Now that I’m a big 1st grader and I know how to write, I like to write things down all the time.  Like this “stoore”, for example:

Look at me!  I can get M&D to give me more grapes!  Finally!  Mmmmmm!

My favorite breakfast item lately is oatmeal.  Can you tell?

Though if I point hard enough, I’ve been able to get Daddy to give me some tastes of Bran Flakes and Puffins.  Wowsers!

(Ed. Note: And now Andrew can point and say “More” in sign language, so I can’t pretend that I don’t know what he’s talking about anymore…)

Sometimes I like to hang out with my little bro’ and reminisce about those days when this was my crib.

I tell him it won’t be too long before he’ll be sprung to a real bed!

Ho, hum.  Just another morning.  I get up and even before I get dressed I head for the vacuum to get started.

I can’t believe M&D have been hiding this toy from me for so long!  But now I know the secret hiding place, and I know how to open the door all by myself!

I decided to try on Daddy’s shoes the other day.  And socks.  And slippers.  Pretty much it was all fair game.

Will these fit me one day, Daddy?

Lately I’ve been trying out this nice and soft, fluffy blue blankey from our friend Celia.

I think it could be “the one”!
