Hi, folks!

So it turns out there is something called Halloween where you get to dress up and be a ham bone. I am getting an early start. 

Got to check out the coolest playground this weekend. 

I tried a sleepover during the Clemson game. Mom and dad watched football with their friends Brian and Frances, and I slept in the guest room until it was time to go home. No worse for wear! Also, this week my new favorite song is ring around the rosy. 

Finally, we wrapped up with a nice Sunday dinner. 

Love you all!

Whew busy week this week. Great trip to Maine for Molly and Kens wedding- congrats.

Always great to see everybody and thanks to great grandma for letting me stay at her house again!

I was a little under the weather but otherwise had a great time!

Gah! Mom accidentally posted our blog on her craft website. Argh. So this is a shortened repost. 

Dad was away this week, so mom and I took some selfies to send to him. 

When dad got back, we went to hang out in the park. 

Nice and quiet at the playground. I got the fire truck to myself for once!

We also had Thai. Top marks for ambiance! Dad insisted I wear a button down to dinner. 

I tried tacos this week. I am a big fan. 

We also roasted a chicken. Yum! Thanks aunt Lis for pointing us towards Ina's recipe. 

It's football season! Nice to kick back and watch sports, don't you tho k?

At school I'm learning nursery rhymes. My favs are hey diddle diddle, ole King Cole, and the one with the blackbirds. Mom and dad say they need to brush up on them. 

Otherwise, can't wait for Aunt Molly's wedding! I'm packing up early. 

See you all very soon!

Big week folks! Uncle James got married! Welcome to the family, Aunt Shannon!

While dad was away, mom was super brave and took me to a restaurant with no high chairs or boosters (she didn't know that before we went). I sat at the big kid table. So fun!!

This week, I tried pork chops!

We also went to my fav splash pad. 

Spent my downtime toiling in the garden. 

Then we made this:

I also discovered yarn this week. Mom has a secret stash. 

Aunt Lis convinced us to try snapchat. It's pretty fun! You can "look funny."

Favorite words this week: delicious, utensil, and happy birthday! It was my oldest friend Alice's birthday. 

That's all for this week. I'm off to go study (and find my pants).

Hola, folks!

We had a great Labor Day! Hoa and Geoff came to visit us. 

I had to clean the pool to get the pool ready for their visit. 

We all took a walk on the beltline. Check out this arty house along the beltline. 

Mom and Hoa had ramen!

I got to run around the house. 

I learned how to piggyback ride. 

And we went to visit my favorite fire engine. 

Mom said I did a good job waiting for my turn at the wheel. 

Then- I got to drive!

Ah- relaxing at the wheel. 

I spent some time on the swings. 

Good tomato crop this weekend. 

Words of the week: Tigers, paw, munchkin, delicious, congratulations, and almonds. New skills this week: sitting at the table in a big kid chair.  

Finally, had some down time with mom and dad. 

Love you all!
