I'm going to be a Big Sister!




Mom found out last week that I'm going to be a big Sister in February! I'm already practicing my hugging! Do I have to share my crib, too?

Postcard from Grandma





Grandma sent me a postcard. Yes, I'm reading it - just let me finish telling you what it says!

Salmon Dinner





Dad grilled Jeff's salmon for dinner before Jeff, Brandy, and Samantha had to leave. Their house in Minot, ND is safe, but they have a lot of friends that were not as fortunate. They even have to boil their water because of the flood waters.

The salmon was great (at least that's what everyone said), but I'll stick to my hot dogs. Wish you guys could have stayed longer!

Walking by the River





Mom and I went for a walk with Brandy and Samantha while Jeff and Dad were fishing. Silly Dads - don't they know they won't catch anything unless I'm there?

Brandy and I



Just hanging out........wait, where is my Mom?

Samantha Fishing





Dad showed Samantha how to salmon fish - they didn't catch any - bummer! Dad, when do I get to run the fishing pole?

Playing with Samantha







Samantha and I had fun playing while they were here.

Playing with Samantha











Brandi, Jeff, and Samantha came to visit us from Minot, North Dakota yesterday! We visited them at Thanksgiving last year. They came just in time - we had the warmest day of the summer (92 F) so Samantha and I played in the pool. Later, Dad, Jeff, and Rick went fishing and Jeff caught his first Idaho salmon!

More Salmon




Crazy Dad - still salmon fishing!

A Civilized Puddle












Mom's approved puddle. Pay attention Dad!

Playing in the Puddles










Dad - you better not let Mom catch us!

Hawaiian Party!













We had a great time at the Luau. I stayed up until 7 pm and then I waved night-night to everyone. I think Mom and Dad stayed up later - they looked pretty tired the next morning. You guys should have went to bed when I did! Even Jetta got decorated for the occasion!

Grass Skirt



Does this tree make my dress look fat?


(If you don't know already - don't answer that question!)

Whoa!



Dad - where did you get that shirt and promise me you'll never wear it again!!!!!!!

Luau!



Mom invited all of Dad's co-workers and our neighbors to a Luau at our house. Mom likes planning parties. We spent all day Friday (6/17) setting up our neighborhood. Mom would put something up and then I would re-arrange it. Aren't we a great team?

Lei's





Mom got a box of Lei's for our Hawaiian block party - can I keep all of them?

Hangin' Out



Ball?





Has anyone seen my ball?

Wheel of Refrigerator





Does anyone need to buy a vowel?

Get up Mom!







Hangin out with Mom....



The Bouncy Castle





Mom tried to get me in the bouncy castle, but I just wanted to watch. I'm just too tired from racing!

I finished!




Okay - so I rode in the stroller most of the way, but I still got a Maniac Dam race t-shirt. I think I just need to grow a little taller! Dad got 6th place in the 5K - you should run faster next time, Dad!

Run like a Dam Maniac!







Ready, set, go!
