The BOX!

The adventure continues with the BOX! Today Mommy let us go out back and PAINT! I had a great time with the paintbrushes.

Then B and I painted the INSIDE of the box… it was super hot outside and the shade of the box was nice.

TADA! Here I am!

Mommy helped a little. But most of the work we Breighton or ME!

After we were done painting there was paint all over the patio! Mommy grabbed the hose and sprayed it off… she accidently got us SOAKING wet too! Silly Mommy!

My First Baseball Game!!

Tonight we went to watch the Clearwater Threshers play against the Tampa Yankees. They were having a family special for $25 that included seats, hotdogs, chips and sodas for four people! 🙂

Breighton and I enjoyed playing on the playground at the stadium for a while before the game.

Being silly as always.

We grabbed out dinner and sat in our seats for a while before the game started.

Daddy took me for a walk around the stadium because I could not sit still. When he brought me back I lasted about 5 minutes and wanted to go back to the outfield berm. On the way I gave up walking, sat down on the ground and took off my shoes! It was my little protest that I needed carried!

I LOVED looking out at the players.

And rolling down the hill. I ran and ran and ran and rolled… rolled and rolled….

Getting tuckered, I took a mini break to watch the other big kids roll down the hill. Too bad I wasn’t into the game!

B and I got tuckered.

I think we were EXHAUSTED!

I GOT SNUGGLIE!

B was sitting with Daddy in the grass and I came over and plopped on top.

grass… lets throw some grass!

I had a wonderful time, we stayed until the top of the 6th inning and called it a night at 8:40. I think next time the seats are pointless and we will just get berm seating.

Learning From Breighton

Besides learning WONDERFUL new words from Breighton like “BAM!” and “BOP!” he is actually teaching me fun things too. I like how he plays on the computer. He is even taking turns with me.

I am learning oh so much lately.

My words are even improving… a little.

Here is the new list:

Mama

Dada

Hat

Ball

Bubble

uh-oh

NOOOOOOO! no no no no no no (complete with head shake and body flail!)

and now Bam and BOP

I have also been watching Breighton’s Leap Phonics Alphabet movie in the car and am starting to repeat some of the letter sounds! So, speech delayed or not, I am getting better.

Tagging Along at the Beach

Today I was the tag-a-long to Breighton’s playdate at the beach with his buddy Zachary! 🙂 I enjoyed swimming in the pool and making drip sandcastles with Mommy while the big kids did their thing. Miss Lynn was so nice to me! 🙂 She is a wonderful friend for Mommy. Miss Lynn made us all PB&J for lunch. I was excited to sit at a little table to eat.

Breighton and Zachary wanted to sit together so I got moved to the big table. I liked that too!

I was so tuckered out and Mommy was packing to head out and I melted down. She nursed me hoping that would chill me out… boy did it ever!!

ZONKED OUT!

After my nap we water the storm out of the windows and enjoyed some graham crackers. What a gorgeous view!!!

I had a really fun time hanging out with Zachary and Miss Lynn at their beach condo! 🙂 What an amazingly fun day. Thanks again!

Neighborhood Picnic

Today they hosted out neighborhood picnic. I met some fun friends at the playground. I was trying to pick this girl up for a playdate but I got show down because she has a dog. I don’t like dogs anyway!
