AND NOW THERE ARE FOUR

There are now four members to the Core household. Daddy, Mommy, sister, and myself. I am really enjoying the big brother role, but one thing that I am still adjusting to is sharing...now don't get me wrong, I do a good job sharing my toys with others, but now I have to share my Daddy and Mommy...and my blog...


When things get to be a bit too much for me, I enjoy going outside and playing in the SNOW - one of my most favorite things to do.

FALL IS HERE

It has again been awhile since Mommy last updated, but she thought she should get it updated before my little sister arrives - sometime in the next week and 1/2. Hopefully once we are all home together she will find a few more times each month to provide updates on me and my sister.

These are pictures from an apple orchard we went to a couple weekends ago. It was soooo much fun. First Mommy took me on Wednesday and we had so much fun that Daddy took us back on Sunday afternoon. We did all sorts of different things and even got to pick and bring home a big bag of apples.

WEDNESDAY'S TRIP - WE HAD THE WHOLE PLACE TO OURSELVES PRACTICALLY

This was great - I had the whole bouncy pillow all to myself!

Hey - if I can't make a snow angel, the next best thing is the corn!


This little goat really liked me - I got to come back and visit him on Sunday and feed him and his friends.


SUNDAY'S TRIP - THERE WERE LINES EVERYWHERE WE LOOKED




Daddy really had alot of fun on the pillow with me. Mommy finally had to come tell us to stop jumping because there was a big line of kids waiting to get on.

It is hard to see me, but I am on this slide with Daddy. Again, Daddy just loved it...and so did I.

We got to sling shot apples into a field with big cut out cows and haybale targets.

This was the best - I got to climb up into trees and pick apples - they were so good.


I got to take this picture of Mommy and Daddy all by myself - I must say it didn't turn out too bad.

BOATING AND THE BEACH

Going boating and playing on the beach have become a favorite thing to do in our family...when we find the time. It used to be boating and fishing, but the fishing usually lasts about 5 minutes and if I don't catch a fish it is off to the BEACH. Here are a few pictures from a recent trip. We usually take our boat to church with us and head off to the lake right after for a picnic lunch.










By the end of the day, I am completely exhausted, but I just LOVE IT!

Little Boy and His Dirt

WHAT ELSE IS A BOY TO DO WITH A PILE OF DIRT IN HIS YARD?

Arizona Trip

Here are pics from our trip to Arizona - it was sooo much fun! I loved being in an airplane and talked the entire way there. We were able to see my aunt and uncle and spend time at the zoo and aquarium, in the pool, at the park, and at the children's museum. I hope we can go back soon.

LOVING THE SNOW

I just love the snow. I pull my stocking cap over my face and tunnel through the snow. It is sooo much fun. I just kept burying my face so Mommy couldn't get a picture of me with my head up.

Mommy has been a little behind on updating the blog lately and she realized we just haven't taken very many pictures for February. Hopefully we will do better in March.

INDOOR SUMMER FUN - 2ND BEST TO THE REAL THING

This weekend we went to Burlington, IA and stayed at the PIZZAZZ resort hotel. It was so much fun. We hung out with daddy's mom's family and I got to play with lots of my second cousins who I don't get to see very often. I was a little hesitant at first in the water, but you can tell from the pictures that I was having a blast by the time we left.

Mommy says this is just like taking a shower - I have always been afraid of the shower, but this was alot of fun - I stood here for about 5 minutes doing the same thing.

I also got to go in a Go-kart with daddy - can't wait till I am big enough to go on my own. We also played in the arcade and I won tickets to get some fun prizes.
