Colin's House for Dinner

We just got back from Colin's house and I had a blast! We went swimming in the pool and I even let Daddy take me all the way in this time. You should have seen me kicking my feet! We had hotdogs and corn for dinner and then some chocolate cake with strawberries, yum! Colin was so nice to share all of his toys with me. I loved playing outside with his big bulldozer, it was fun to ride! Thanks Colin for a great time! Oh and this is a picture of Logan and I at naptime today, I did not make it up to my room.

Hail and Farewell BBQ

Tonight we had the Hail and Farewell BBQ for the exiting and entering interns. It was held on base on the hospital grounds. We had a blast! I ran around with Daddy and my new friend Kai. We also tried to climb these really big trees. I did not make it too far up though. The chocolate cupcake was oh so yummy, even though most of it ended up on my face. Mommy was so glad she gave me a bath before the party. Well I am tired now, off to watch my show before I go to bed. Miss everyone!

Lucy Update

Mommy went to the doctor today. I stayed in the child waiting center, not too happy about that one. Anyway, everything looked great with Mommy and Lucy. Lucy was in the head down position. Mommy's glucose test came back fine as well; her blood pressure and Lucy's heartrate were also good. No big news yet. They did tell Mommy she will probably go a little early. They said anything after 34 weeks, they will let nature take its course and not stop anything. I want Lucy to come out now. That is what I tell Mommy everyday as I try to push her out of Mommy's stomach. Yeah, I say that now is what you are probably thinking. When she is here, I will be trying to find a way to put her back in! It is really neat though because I love watching Lucy poke at me through Mommy's belly. I think she is telling me hi!

Ocean View Beach Park

We attempted the beach again today with Daddy. We heard about this beach that is less crowded, has bathrooms, free parking and has much calmer water. I really enjoyed myself. I played in the sand, went for a walk with Mommy and even played in the water with Daddy. It was a fun day! I just don't understand why those seagulls kept flying away from me. Oh, we took a picture of the fishing/crabbing pier that we will take Coach to when he comes down.

Mall and Barnes and Noble

Today I went to the MacArthur Center Mall in Norfolk thanks to a suggestion from Aunt Hillary and an invite from a friend. We played in the indoor play area. I loved the dolphins, the train and the truck. Everything made noise, it was great! There was also a nice, comfy place for Mommy to sit, I think she enjoyed that. Then we went to story time at Barnes and Noble. Miss Dawn read zoo stories, we sang songs, played zoo bingo and had a goldfish snack. I enjoyed all of this with my friend Kai. Tomorrow we are going to try to do something special with Daddy and then Mommy has her Dr.'s appt. on Wed. I am as busy as a bee!

Weekend with Mom Mom, Pop Pop and Aunt Kate

Mom Mom, Pop Pop and Aunt Kate came to visit me this weekend. We had so much fun spending time together. I showed them how I like to rock on the porch, we took a walk around my neighborhood and then ate some pizza together. They brought me a new basketball net to practice my skills and Josh and Jason gave me their old fire truck, thank you so much! Mommy and Daddy went out to dinner together and I stayed home to play with everyone. I enjoyed a big bowl of ice cream of course and Mom Mom and Aunt Kate gave me a bath. On Saturday, we took a long walk to see the ships. We also played on the playground for a little bit. It was sooooooo hot out! I fell asleep on the way home, like I said it was a long walk, even if you were in a stroller. After lunch, we had to say goodbye. I think this is the last of the visits until Lucy makes her appearance. Oh I almost forgot, Aunt Nancy also sent me an early birthday present. I can't wait to make all the yummy stuff she sent, especially Sand Cake. Thank you so much everyone for a wonderful weekend. I love you and miss you already.

Colin's House

Today I went to play at Colin's house! We played with his firetrucks, tractors and airplane set. He even let me take a train home! We walked down to the lake to feed some ducks, but they were not out. They don't know what they were missing, we had Fruit Loops for them! So we went to the park instead. Colin was such a great friend, he held my hand when I was too scared to go into the tunnel. Then we went back to his house for some milk and cookies. As you can see, I took some home with me in the car and fell asleep, chocolate drool, yum! We are going to meet some of Daddy's friends tonight at dinner. It is at an Irish Pub, I promise I won't dance too much. Miss you!

Movies

Mommy took me to my first movie today, The Tale of Despereaux. I really liked the big tv! I was not too sure to start out, but I made it the whole movie. Then I cried when it was over because I wanted more. I am excited for Mom Mom, Pop Pop and Aunt Kate's visit this weekend!

Playdate with Colin

My friend Colin came over to play again today. He loved my firetruck! We had fun outside in the pool. We loved sliding down the slide, pouring water on Logan and washing my bike. It started to rain a little, so we came back inside. I showed Colin my dancing show and we ran around in circles like crazy. We also enjoyed brownies and goldfish, yum! It was a fun morning but I am so sleepy now. Off to nap I go!

Nan and Pop Pop Came to Visit Me

Did I mention I was one lucky little boy!? Nan and Pop Pop came to see my new house today. They brought me a new truck and some cd's. Thank you so much. We went to their hotel and they stayed up high! They were on the 16th floor, I could see all the boats and ships from their window. We went to the pool, but I was a little scared of that too. I think I just need to get used to these summer things. For dinner, we ate at Roger Brown's Bar and Grill, yummy french fries! I liked watching the big tv's and even drove a race car. Of course I had to finish off the night with a gigantic mug full of ice cream. We are going to visit Nan and Pop Pop at their hotel tomorrow morning to say goodbye. It was such a nice day. Thank you Nan and Pop Pop. I love you. Have a safe trip home!

Morning at the Beach

Today was Daddy's first day of work and we walked him into the hospital this morning. I went to the beach this morning. I didn't mind the sand too much, but the water was a little too scary for me. I don't remember it much from last summer. That is one big bathtub! I also enjoyed some french fries and watched people riding bikes on the boardwalk. Mom Mom and Aunt Kate, I practiced my look for you a couple times. Thank you Ava and Reese for my card, I loved it!!!

Weekend with Nana

This weekend we had a special visitor! Nana came to visit and she brought me a new boat for my pool, a Thomas engine and a new Thomas DVD! We took a long walk downtown to show her the boats and ships. I tried to stay awake but I conked out after a couple of blocks. Mommy and Nana made sure to get me ice cream though for when I woke up. Can you believe they do not have an ice cream shop here?! Mommy says she is going to open her own down the street, but I think I might eat it all! After our walk, I played outside with Nana in my pool. Then she gave me a bath and we watched my dancing show on TV. After all of that, I was ready for bed and woke up bright and early to see Nana again. We watched some more shows, my favorite thing to do, and then sat out on the porch. Nana had to leave this morning to go watch Uncle Mike do his dancing thing. I wish I could see him too. Good luck Uncle Mike! Aunt Kyle also has a soccer game today, go get em' little bean! I was sad to see Nana go but Nan and Pop Pop are coming this week and Mom Mom and Pop Pop are coming in 2 weeks. I love everyone so much! Thanks for a great visit Nana!!!

Virginia Zoo

Today we went to the Virginia Zoo with Miss Abigail and Colin. Aunt Hillary was right, this place was so much fun! I loved watching a giraffe from inside a building, we were sooooo close to him! We also saw an elephant playing in some water, it was a hot day today. I think I loved the monkeys the most. They were jumping and playing all over the place, much like myself.

Lazy Summer Afternoons

Well as you can see, I just love my porch. I like to sit out here with Logan and watch people and cars go by. I also love to play with my cars on Nan's table, we found a perfect spot for it. I miss you so much!
